John 2 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Miracle at Cana

Jhn 2:1

Jhn 2:1

On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;

Jhn 2:2

Jhn 2:2and both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding.

Jhn 2:3

Jhn 2:3When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.”

Jhn 2:4

Jhn 2:4And Jesus *said to her, “[fn]What business do you have with Me, woman? My hour has not yet come.”

Jhn 2:5

Jhn 2:5His mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He tells you, do it.”

Jhn 2:6

Jhn 2:6Now there were six stone waterpots standing there for the Jewish custom of purification, containing [fn]two or three measures each.

Jhn 2:7

Jhn 2:7Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.

Jhn 2:8

Jhn 2:8And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the [fn]headwaiter.” And they took it to him.

Jhn 2:9

Jhn 2:9Now when the headwaiter tasted the water 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 groom,

Jhn 2:10

Jhn 2:10and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the guests are drunk, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.”

Jhn 2:11

Jhn 2:11This beginning of His [fn]signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.

Jhn 2:12

Jhn 2:12

After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother, and His brothers and His disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

First Passover—Cleansing the Temple

(Mat 21:12–17; Mar 11:15–19; Luk 19:45–48 )

Jhn 2:13

Jhn 2:13

The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Jhn 2:14

Jhn 2:14And within the temple grounds He found those who were selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables.

Jhn 2:15

Jhn 2:15And He made a whip of [fn]cords, and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables;

Jhn 2:16

Jhn 2:16and to those who were selling the doves He said, “Take these things away from here; stop making My Father’s house a [fn]place of business!”

Jhn 2:17

Jhn 2:17His disciples remembered that it was written: “ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME.”

Jhn 2:18

Jhn 2:18The Jews then said to Him, “What sign do You show us [fn]as Your authority for doing these things?”

Jhn 2:19

Jhn 2:19Jesus answered them, “Destroy this [fn]temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

Jhn 2:20

Jhn 2:20The Jews then said, “It took forty-six years to build this [fn]temple, and yet You will raise it up in three days?”

Jhn 2:21

Jhn 2:21But He was speaking about the [fn]temple of His body.

Jhn 2:22

Jhn 2:22So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

Jhn 2:23

Jhn 2:23

Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name as they observed His signs which He was doing.

Jhn 2:24

Jhn 2:24But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, because He knew all people,

Jhn 2:25

Jhn 2:25and because He did not need anyone to testify about mankind, for He Himself knew what was in mankind.
