John 2

1 And the thirde day, was there a mariage in Cana [a citie] of Galilee, and the mother of Iesus was there.2 And Iesus was called, and his disciples vnto the mariage.3 And whe the wyne fayled, the mother of Iesus sayth vnto hym: they haue no wyne.4 Iesus saith vnto her: Woman, what haue I to do with thee, myne houre is not yet come.5 His mother sayth vnto the ministers: Whatsoeuer he sayth vnto you, do it.6 And there were set there, sixe water pottes of stone, after the maner of the purifiyng of the Iewes, conteynyng two or three firkins a peece.7 Iesus sayth vnto them: fyll the water pottes with water. And they fylled them vp to the brym.8 And he sayth vnto them: drawe out nowe, and beare vnto the gouernour of feast. And they bare it.9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wyne, and knewe not whence it was (but the ministers which drewe the water knewe) the gouernour of the feast calleth the brydegrome:10 And sayth vnto hym, Euery man at the begynnyng doth set foorth good wine, and when men haue well dronke, then that which is worse: But thou hast kept the good wyne vntyll nowe.11 This begynnyng of miracles dyd Iesus in Cana of Galilee, and shewed his glory, & his disciples beleued on hym.

12 After this, he went downe to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples, and there continued not many dayes.13 And the Iewes Passouer was at hande, & Iesus went vp to Hierusalem,14 And founde sittyng in the temple, those that solde oxen, and sheepe, and doues, and chaungers of money.15 And when he had made [as it were] a scourge of small cordes, he droue them all out of the temple, with the sheepe, & oxen, and powred out the chaungers money, and ouerthrewe the tables,16 And saide vnto them that solde doues: Haue these thinges hence, and make not my fathers house an house of marchaundize.17 And his disciples remembred that it was written: The zeale of thine house hath euen eaten me.18 Then aunswered the Iewes, & sayde vnto hym: What token shewest thou vnto vs, seeyng that thou doest these thynges?19 Iesus aunswered, & sayde vnto them: Destroy this temple, & in three dayes I wyll reare it vp.20 Then sayde the Iewes, fourtie and sixe yeres was this temple a buildyng, and wilt thou reare it vp in three dayes?21 But he spake of the temple of his body.22 Assoone therfore, as he was rysen from death [agayne,] his disciples remembred that he thus had sayde: And they beleued the scripture, & the wordes which Iesus had sayde.

23 When he was in Hierusalem at the Passouer, in the feast day, many beleued on his name, when they sawe his miracles which he dyd.24 But Iesus dyd not commit hym selfe vnto them, because he knewe all men,25 And neded not, that any shoulde testifie of man: For he knewe what was in man.
