1 And on the third day a marriage took place in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. | 1 καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ γάμος ἐγένετο ἐν κανὰ τῆς γαλιλαίας, καὶ ἦν ἡ μήτηρ τοῦ ἰησοῦ ἐκεῖ· | |||
2 And Jesus also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage. | 2 ἐκλήθη δὲ καὶ ὁ ἰησοῦς καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν γάμον. | |||
3 And wine being deficient, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine. | 3 καὶ ὑστερήσαντος οἴνου λέγει ἡ μήτηρ τοῦ ἰησοῦ πρὸς αὐτόν, οἶνον οὐκ ἔχουσιν. | |||
4 Jesus says to her, What have I to do with thee, woman? mine hour has not yet come. | 4 [καὶ] λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ ἰησοῦς, τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί, γύναι; οὔπω ἥκει ἡ ὥρα μου. | |||
5 His mother says to the servants, Whatever he may say to you, do. | 5 λέγει ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ τοῖς διακόνοις, ὅ τι ἂν λέγῃ ὑμῖν ποιήσατε. | |||
6 Now there were standing there six stone water-vessels, according to the purification of the Jews, holding two or three measures each. | 6 ἦσαν δὲ ἐκεῖ λίθιναι ὑδρίαι ἓξ κατὰ τὸν καθαρισμὸν τῶν ἰουδαίων κείμεναι, χωροῦσαι ἀνὰ μετρητὰς δύο ἢ τρεῖς. | |||
7 Jesus says to them, Fill the water-vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim. | 7 λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς, γεμίσατε τὰς ὑδρίας ὕδατος. καὶ ἐγέμισαν αὐτὰς ἕως ἄνω. | |||
8 And he says to them, Draw out now, and carry [it] to the feast-master. And they carried [it]. | 8 καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, ἀντλήσατε νῦν καὶ φέρετε τῶ ἀρχιτρικλίνῳ· οἱ δὲ ἤνεγκαν. | |||
9 But when the feast-master had tasted the water which had been made wine (and knew not whence it was, but the servants knew who drew the water), the feast-master calls the bridegroom, | 9 ὡς δὲ ἐγεύσατο ὁ ἀρχιτρίκλινος τὸ ὕδωρ οἶνον γεγενημένον, καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει πόθεν ἐστίν, οἱ δὲ διάκονοι ᾔδεισαν οἱ ἠντληκότες τὸ ὕδωρ, φωνεῖ τὸν νυμφίον ὁ ἀρχιτρίκλινος | |||
10 and says to him, Every man sets on first the good wine, and when [men] have well drunk, then the inferior; thou hast kept the good wine till now. | 10 καὶ λέγει αὐτῶ, πᾶς ἄνθρωπος πρῶτον τὸν καλὸν οἶνον τίθησιν, καὶ ὅταν μεθυσθῶσιν τὸν ἐλάσσω· σὺ τετήρηκας τὸν καλὸν οἶνον ἕως ἄρτι. | |||
11 This beginning of signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him. | 11 ταύτην ἐποίησεν ἀρχὴν τῶν σημείων ὁ ἰησοῦς ἐν κανὰ τῆς γαλιλαίας καὶ ἐφανέρωσεν τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπίστευσαν εἰς αὐτὸν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ. | |||
12 After this he descended to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brethren and his disciples; and there they abode not many days. | 12 μετὰ τοῦτο κατέβη εἰς καφαρναοὺμ αὐτὸς καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ [αὐτοῦ] καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκεῖ ἔμειναν οὐ πολλὰς ἡμέρας. | |||
13 And the passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. | 13 καὶ ἐγγὺς ἦν τὸ πάσχα τῶν ἰουδαίων, καὶ ἀνέβη εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα ὁ ἰησοῦς. | |||
14 And he found in the temple the sellers of oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting; | 14 καὶ εὖρεν ἐν τῶ ἱερῶ τοὺς πωλοῦντας βόας καὶ πρόβατα καὶ περιστερὰς καὶ τοὺς κερματιστὰς καθημένους, | |||
15 and, having made a scourge of cords, he cast [them] all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the change of the money-changers, and overturned the tables, | 15 καὶ ποιήσας φραγέλλιον ἐκ σχοινίων πάντας ἐξέβαλεν ἐκ τοῦ ἱεροῦ, τά τε πρόβατα καὶ τοὺς βόας, καὶ τῶν κολλυβιστῶν ἐξέχεεν τὸ κέρμα καὶ τὰς τραπέζας ἀνέτρεψεν, | |||
16 and said to the sellers of doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise. | 16 καὶ τοῖς τὰς περιστερὰς πωλοῦσιν εἶπεν, ἄρατε ταῦτα ἐντεῦθεν, μὴ ποιεῖτε τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου οἶκον ἐμπορίου. | |||
17 [And] his disciples remembered that it is written, The zeal of thy house devours me. | 17 ἐμνήσθησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ὅτι γεγραμμένον ἐστίν, ὁ ζῆλος τοῦ οἴκου σου καταφάγεταί με. | |||
18 The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign shewest thou to us, that thou doest these things? | 18 ἀπεκρίθησαν οὗν οἱ ἰουδαῖοι καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῶ, τί σημεῖον δεικνύεις ἡμῖν, ὅτι ταῦτα ποιεῖς; | |||
19 Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. | 19 ἀπεκρίθη ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, λύσατε τὸν ναὸν τοῦτον καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερῶ αὐτόν. | |||
20 The Jews therefore said, Forty and six years was this temple building, and thou wilt raise it up in three days? | 20 εἶπαν οὗν οἱ ἰουδαῖοι, τεσσεράκοντα καὶ ἓξ ἔτεσιν οἰκοδομήθη ὁ ναὸς οὖτος, καὶ σὺ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερεῖς αὐτόν; | |||
21 But *he* spoke of the temple of his body. | 21 ἐκεῖνος δὲ ἔλεγεν περὶ τοῦ ναοῦ τοῦ σώματος αὐτοῦ. | |||
22 When therefore he was raised from among [the] dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken. | 22 ὅτε οὗν ἠγέρθη ἐκ νεκρῶν, ἐμνήσθησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ὅτι τοῦτο ἔλεγεν, καὶ ἐπίστευσαν τῇ γραφῇ καὶ τῶ λόγῳ ὃν εἶπεν ὁ ἰησοῦς. | |||
23 And when he was in Jerusalem, at the passover, at the feast, many believed on his name, beholding his signs which he wrought. | 23 ὡς δὲ ἦν ἐν τοῖς ἱεροσολύμοις ἐν τῶ πάσχα ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ, πολλοὶ ἐπίστευσαν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, θεωροῦντες αὐτοῦ τὰ σημεῖα ἃ ἐποίει· | |||
24 But Jesus himself did not trust himself to them, because he knew all [men], | 24 αὐτὸς δὲ ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἐπίστευεν αὐτὸν αὐτοῖς διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας, | |||
25 and that he had not need that any should testify of man, for himself knew what was in man. | 25 καὶ ὅτι οὐ χρείαν εἶχεν ἵνα τις μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου· αὐτὸς γὰρ ἐγίνωσκεν τί ἦν ἐν τῶ ἀνθρώπῳ. | |||
