The Emphasized Bible
John 2:1-25

John

2 And on the third day a marriage took place in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there,—

2 and Jesus also was invited with his disciples unto the marriage.

3 And wine falling short, the mother of Jesus saith unto him—Wine have they none!

4 And Jesus saith unto her—What part can I take with thee, O woman? Not yet hath come mine hour.

5 His mother saith unto them who are ministering—Whatsoever he may say to you do!

6 Now there were there six stone water-vessels, placed according to the purification of the Jews; holding each two or three measures.

7 Jesus saith unto them—Fill the vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

8 And he saith unto them—Draw out now and be bearing unto the master of the feast. And they bare.

9 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,

10 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.

11 This beginning of his signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

12 After this he came down into Capernaum,—he and his mother and brethren and his disciples; and there they abode not many days.

13 And near was the passover of the Jews; and Jesus went up unto Jerusalem.

14 And he found in the temple them that were selling oxen and sheep and doves, also the money-changers sitting.

15 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;

16 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.

17 His disciples remembered that it was written—The zeal of thy house eateth me up.

18 The Jews therefore answered and said unto him—What sign dost thou point out to us, in that these things thou doest?

19 Jesus answered and said unto them—Take down this shrine, And in three days will I raise it.

20 The Jews therefore said—In forty and six years was this shrine built. And thou in three days wilt raise it!

21 But he was speaking concerning the shrine of his body.

22 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.

23 Now when he was in Jerusalem during the passover during the feast many believed on his name, viewing his signs which he was doing.

24 Jesus himself however was not trusting himself unto them, by reason of his understanding them all

25 and because he had no need that anyone should bear witness concerning man; for he understood what was in man.
