John:2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And ,
on the third day ,
a marriage ,
took place ,
in Cana ,
of Galilee ;
and the mother of Jesus was there ,
*
and Jesus also was invited ,
with his disciples ,
unto the marriage .
*
And ,
wine falling short ,
the mother of Jesus saith unto him Wine ,
have they none !
*
And Jesus saith unto her What part can I take with thee ,
O woman ?
Not yet ,
hath come ,
mine hour .
*
His mother saith unto them who are ministering Whatsoever he may say to you ,
do !
*
Now there were there ,
six stone water-vessels ,
placed ,
according to the purification of the Jews ;
holding each ,
two or three measures .
*
Jesus saith unto them Fill the vessels with water .
And they filled them up to the brim .
*
And he saith unto them Draw out now ,
and be bearing unto the master of the feast .
And they bare .
*
And ,
when the master of the feast had tasted the water ,
now made ,
wine ,
and knew not whence it was ,
though ,
they who were ministering ,
knew ,
even they who had drawn out the water ,
the master accosteth the bridegroom ,
*
and saith unto him Every man ,
first the good wine ,
setteth out ;
and ,
when they had been well-supplied ,
the inferior :
Thou ,
hast kept the good wine until ,
even now .
*
This ,
beginning of his signs ,
did Jesus ,
in Cana of Galilee ,
and manifested his glory ;
and his disciples believed on him .
*
After this ,
he came down into Capernaum ,
he ,
and his mother and brethren ,
and his disciples ;
and ,
there ,
they abode ,
not many days .
*
And ,
near ,
was the passover of the Jews ;
and ,
Jesus ,
went up unto Jerusalem .
*
And he found ,
in the temple ,
them that were selling oxen and sheep and doves ,
also the money-changers sitting .
*
And ,
making a scourge out of rushes ,
all of them ,
thrust he forth out of the temple ,
both the sheep and the oxen ;
and ,
the money-changers small coins ,
poured he forth ,
and ,
the tables ,
he overturned ;
*
and unto them who were selling ,
the doves ,
he said Take these things hence !
Be not making ,
the house of my Father ,
a house of merchandise .
*
His disciples remembered that it was written The zeal of thy house ,
eateth me up .
*
The Jews therefore answered ,
and said unto him ,
What sign ,
dost thou point out to us ,
in that ,
these things ,
thou doest ?
*
Jesus answered ,
and said unto them Take down this shrine ,
and ,
in three days ,
will I raise it .
*
The Jews ,
therefore ,
said In forty and six years ,
was this shrine built .
And ,
thou ,
in three days ,
wilt raise it !
*
But ,
he ,
was speaking concerning the shrine of his body .
*
When ,
therefore ,
he had been raised from among the dead ,
his disciples remembered ,
that ,
this ,
he had been saying ;
and they believed in the Scripture ,
and in the word which Jesus had spoken .
*
Now ,
when he was in Jerusalem ,
during the passover ,
during the feast ,
many ,
believed on his name ,
viewing his signs which he was doing .
*
Jesus himself ,
however ,
was not trusting himself unto them ,
by reason of his understanding them all ,
*
and because he had ,
no need ,
that anyone should bear witness concerning man ;
for ,
he ,
understood what was in man .
