¹ And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.² And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.³ And the wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to him: They have no wine.⁴ And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My hour is not yet come.⁵ His mother saith to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.⁶ Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures apiece.⁷ Jesus saith to them: Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.⁸ And Jesus saith to them: Draw out now and carry to the chief steward of the feast. And they carried it.⁹ And when the chief steward had tasted the water made wine and knew not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn the water: the chief steward calleth the bridegroom,¹⁰ And saith to him: Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse. But thou hast kept the good wine until now.¹¹ This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.

¹² After this, he went down to Capharnaum, he and his mother and his brethren and his disciples: and they remained there not many days.¹³ And the pasch of the Jews was at hand: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.¹⁴ And he found in the temple them that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting.¹⁵ And when he had made, as it were, a scourge of little cords, he drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also and the oxen: and the money of the changers he poured out, and the tables he overthrew.¹⁶ And to them that sold doves he said: Take these things hence, and make not the house of my Father a house of traffic.¹⁷ And his disciples remembered, that it was written: The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.¹⁸ The Jews, therefore, answered, and said to him: What sign dost thou shew unto us, seeing thou dost these things?¹⁹ Jesus answered and said to them: Destroy this temple; and in three days I will raise it up.²⁰ The Jews then said: Six and forty years was this temple in building; and wilt thou raise it up in three days?²¹ But he spoke of the temple of his body.²² When therefore he was risen again from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this: and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had said.

²³ Now when he was at Jerusalem, at the pasch, upon the festival day, many believed in his name, seeing his signs which he did.²⁴ But Jesus did not trust himself unto them: for that he knew all men,²⁵ And because he needed not that any should give testimony of man: for he knew what was in man.
