Miracle at Cana

On (A)the third day there was a wedding in (B)Cana of Galilee, and the (C)mother of Jesus was there; and both Jesus and His (D)disciples were invited to the wedding. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus *said to her, (E)Woman, [a](F)what does that have to do with us? (G)My hour has not yet come.” His (H)mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” Now there were six stone waterpots set there (I)for the Jewish custom of purification, containing [b]twenty or thirty gallons each. Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the [c]headwaiter.” So they took it to him. When the headwaiter tasted the water (J)which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the bridegroom, 10 and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people (K)have [d]drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11 This beginning of His [e](L)signs Jesus did in Cana of (M)Galilee, and manifested His (N)glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12 After this He went down to (O)Capernaum, He and His (P)mother and His (Q)brothers and His (R)disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

First Passover—Cleansing the Temple

13 (S)The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus (T)went up to Jerusalem. 14 (U)And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15 And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; 16 and to those who were selling (V)the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making (W)My Father’s house a [f]place of business.” 17 His (X)disciples remembered that it was written, “(Y)Zeal for Your house will consume me.” 18 (Z)The Jews then said to Him, “(AA)What sign do You show us [g]as your authority for doing these things?” 19 Jesus answered them, (AB)Destroy this [h]temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 (AC)The Jews then said, “It took (AD)forty-six years to build this [i]temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking of (AE)the [j]temple of His body. 22 So when He was raised from the dead, His (AF)disciples (AG)remembered that He said this; and they believed (AH)the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

23 Now when He was in Jerusalem at (AI)the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, (AJ)observing His signs which He was doing. 24 But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for (AK)He knew all men, 25 and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man, (AL)for He Himself knew what was in man.

迦拿的婚筵

第三天,在加利利的迦拿有婚筵,耶稣的母亲在那里; 耶稣和门徒也被邀请参加婚筵。 酒用尽了,耶稣的母亲对他说:“他们没有酒了。” 耶稣说:“母亲(“母亲”原文作“妇人”),我跟你有甚么关系呢?我的时候还没有到。” 他母亲告诉仆人说:“他吩咐你们甚么,就作甚么。” 在那里有六口石缸,每口可盛两三桶水,是为犹太人行洁净礼用的。 耶稣吩咐仆人:“把缸都倒满水!”他们就倒满了,直到缸口。 耶稣又吩咐他们:“现在舀出来,送给筵席的总管!”他们就送去了。 总管尝了那水变的酒,不知道是从哪里来的,只有舀水的仆人知道。总管就叫新郎来, 10 对他说:“人人都是先摆上好酒,等到亲友喝够了,才摆上次等的,你倒把好酒留到现在。” 11 这是耶稣所行的第一件神迹,是在加利利的迦拿行的。他显出了自己的荣耀,他的门徒就信了他。

12 这事以后,耶稣和母亲、弟弟、门徒,都下到迦百农去,在那里住了没有几天。

洁净圣殿(A)

13 犹太人的逾越节近了,耶稣就上耶路撒冷去。 14 他在圣殿的外院里看见有卖牛羊鸽子的,和坐在那里兑换银钱的, 15 就用绳索做了一条鞭子,把众人连牛带羊都从外院赶出去,倒掉兑换银钱的人的钱,推翻他们的桌子; 16 又对卖鸽子的说:“把这些东西搬出去,不要把我父的殿当作巿场。” 17 他的门徒就想起经上记着:“我为你的殿心中迫切,如同火烧。” 18 犹太人就问他:“你可以显甚么神迹给我们看,证明你有权作这些事呢?” 19 耶稣回答:“你们拆毁这殿,我三天之内要把它建造起来。” 20 犹太人说:“这殿建了四十六年,你三天之内就能把它建造起来吗?” 21 但耶稣所说的殿,就是他的身体。 22 所以当耶稣从死人中复活以后,门徒想起了他说过这话,就信了圣经和耶稣所说的话。

耶稣知道人的内心

23 耶稣在耶路撒冷过逾越节的时候,许多人看见他所行的神迹,就信了他的名。 24 耶稣却不信任他们,因为他知道所有的人, 25 也不需要谁指证人是怎样的,因为他知道人心里存的是甚么。
