          DASV: John 2    

1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee,
and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.
3 When they had run out of wine, Jesus’ mother said to him,
"They are out of wine."
4 Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does that have to do with
you and me? My hour is not yet come."
5 His mother said to the servants, "Whatever he tells you,
do it."

6 Now there were six water pots of stone set there according
to the Jewish custom of ceremonial washing, containing twenty
or thirty gallons apiece.
7 Jesus told them, "Fill the water pots with water." So they
filled them up to the brim.
8 Then he said to them, "Now draw out some, and take it to the
master of ceremonies." So they took it.
9 When the master of ceremonies tasted the water that had been
made into wine, he did not know where it was from (but the
servants who had drawn the water knew). The master of ceremonies
called the bridegroom,
10 and said to him, "Every one serves first the good wine, then
after people have drunk, that which is worse. But you have
kept the good wine until now."
11 This was the first miraculous sign that Jesus did in Cana of
Galilee. So he revealed his glory, and his disciples believed
in him.

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, his mother, his
brothers, and his disciples; and they were there a few days.
13 The Jewish Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep and doves,
and the money-changers sitting beside their exchange tables.
15 He made a whip of cords, and drove out of the temple both the
sheep and oxen. He poured out the changers' money and overturned
their tables.
16 To those who sold the doves he said, "Get these things out of
here. Do not turn my Father's house into a marketplace."
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your
house will consume me."

18 The Jews therefore said to him, "What sign do you show us,
confirming that you can legitimately do these things?"
19 Jesus replied, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will
raise it up."
20 Then the Jews said, "It took forty-six years to build this
temple and you will raise it up in three days?"
21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was raised 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 arrived in Jerusalem for the Feast of the Passover,
many believed on his name, when they saw the miraculous sign he did.
24 But Jesus did not entrust himself to them, for he knew everyone,
25 and did not need anyone to tell him about human nature since
he knew what was in man.
