¹ And on the third day there was a feast in Cana, a city of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.² And also Jesus and his disciples were invited to the feast.³ And the wine fell short: and his mother said to Jesus: They have no wine.⁴ Jesus said to her: What is [fn] to me and thee? Not yet hath my hour come. ⁵ His mother said to the waiters: Whatever he saith to you, do [fn] . ⁶ And there were there six waterpots of stone, set for the purification of Jews, containing each two or three quadrantalia.⁷ Jesus said to them: Fill those water-pots with water. And they filled them to the top.⁸ He said to them: Draw now, and carry to the master of the feast. And they carried.⁹ And when the master of the feast tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know whence it came, (although the waiters knew, as they had filled the pots with water,) the master of the feast called the bridegroom,¹⁰ and said to him: Every man first bringeth forward the good wine, and when they are satiated, then that which is inferior; but thou hast kept the good wine till now.¹¹ This is the first sign, which Jesus wrought at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory: and his disciples believed on him.

¹² Afterwards he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers and his disciples; and they were there a few days.¹³ And the pass over of the Jews drew near; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.¹⁴ And he found in the temple those who sold beeves and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting [fn] . ¹⁵ And he made himself a whip from a cord, and turned them all out of the temple, and the sheep and the beeves and the money-changers; and he poured out their money, and overset their tables:¹⁶ and he said to them that sold doves, Take away these things; and make not my Father's house a house of traffic.¹⁷ And his disciples remembered, that it is written: The zeal of thy house hath devoured me.¹⁸ But the Jews replied, and said to him: What sign showest thou to us, since thou doest these things?¹⁹ Jesus answered, and said to them: Demolish this temple, and in three days I will again erect it.²⁰ The Jews said to him: Forty and six years, this temple was building; and wilt thou build it again in three days?²¹ But he spake of the temple of his body.²² And when he was arisen from the dead, his disciples remembered, that he spoke this: and they believed the scriptures, and the word that Jesus spake.

²³ And while Jesus was in Jerusalem, at the feast of the passover, many believed on him, because they saw the signs he wrought.²⁴ But Jesus did not confide himself to them; because he knew all men:²⁵ And he needed not that any one should testify to him respecting any man; for he himself knew what is in man.
