約翰福音 2

迦拿的婚禮

1 第三日，在加利利的迦拿有一個婚宴，耶穌的母親在那裏。 2 耶穌和他的門徒也被請去赴宴。 3 酒用完了，耶穌的母親對他說：「他們沒有酒了。」 4 耶穌說：「母親t，我與你何干呢？我的時候還沒有到。」 5 他母親對用人說：「他告訴你們甚麼，你們就做吧。」 6 照猶太人潔淨禮的規矩，有六口石缸擺在那裏，每口可以盛兩三桶t水。 7 耶穌對用人說：「把缸倒滿水。」他們就倒滿了，直到缸口。 8 耶穌又說：「現在舀出來，送給宴會總管。」他們就送了去。 9 宴會總管嘗了那水變的酒，並不知道是哪裏來的，只有舀水的用人知道。於是宴會總管叫新郎來， 10 對他說：「人家都是先擺上好酒，等客人喝夠了才擺上次的，你倒把好酒留到現在！」 11 這是耶穌所行的第一個神蹟，是在加利利的迦拿行的，顯出了他的榮耀來，他的門徒就信他了。

12 這事以後，耶穌與他的母親、兄弟t和門徒t都下迦百農去，在那裏住了不多幾天。

潔淨聖殿

（太21．12－13；可11．15－17；路19．45－46）

13  猶太人的逾越節近了，耶穌上耶路撒冷去。 14 他看見聖殿裏有賣牛羊和鴿子的，還有兌換銀錢的人坐著， 15 耶穌就拿繩子做成鞭子，把所有的，包括牛羊都趕出聖殿，倒出兌換銀錢之人的銀錢，推翻他們的桌子， 16 又對賣鴿子的說：「把這些東西拿走！不要把我父的殿當作買賣的地方。」 17 他的門徒就想起經上記著：「我為你的殿心裏焦急，如同火燒。」 18 因此猶太領袖問他：「你能顯甚麼神蹟給我們看，表明你可以做這些事呢？」 19 耶穌回答他們說：「你們拆毀這殿，我三日內要把它重建。」 20 猶太人問：「這殿造了四十六年，你三日內就能重建嗎？」 21 但耶穌所說的殿是指他的身體。 22 所以他從死人中復活以後，門徒想起他曾說過這事，就信了聖經和耶穌所說的話。

耶穌洞察人心

23 耶穌在耶路撒冷過逾越節的時候，有許多人看見他所行的神蹟，就信了他的名。 24 耶穌自己卻不信任他們，因為他認識所有的人， 25 也用不著誰來證明人是怎樣的，因為他自己認識人的內心。

JOHN 2

Jesus at a Wedding in Cana

1 Three days later Mary, the mother of Jesus, was at a wedding feast in the village of Cana in Galilee.

2 Jesus and his disciples had also been invited and were there.

3 When the wine was all gone, Mary said to Jesus, “They don't have any more wine.”

4 Jesus replied, “Mother, my time hasn't yet come!t You must not tell me what to do.”

5 Mary then said to the servants, “Do whatever Jesus tells you to do.”
6 At the feast there were six stone water jars that were used by the people for washing themselves in the way that their religion said they must. Each jar held about 100 liters . 7 Jesus told the servants to fill them to the top with water. Then after the jars had been filled,

8 he said, “Now take some water and give it to the man in charge of the feast.”
The servants did as Jesus told them, 9 and the man in charge drank some of the water that had now turned into wine. He did not know where the wine had come from, but the servants did. He called the bridegroom over

10 and said, “The best wine is always served first. Then after the guests have had plenty, the other wine is served. But you have kept the best until last!”
11 This was Jesus' first miracle, t and he did it in the village of Cana in Galilee. There Jesus showed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in him.

12 t After this, he went with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples to the town of Capernaum, where they stayed for a few days.

Jesus in the Temple

(Matthew 21.12,13; Mark 11.15-17; Luke 19.45,46)

13  t Not long before the Jewish festival of Passover, Jesus went to Jerusalem. 14 There he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves in the temple. He also saw moneychangers sitting at their tables.

15 So he took some rope and made a whip. Then he chased everyone out of the temple, together with their sheep and cattle. He turned over the tables of the moneychangers and scattered their coins.

16 Jesus said to the people who had been selling doves, “Get those doves out of here! Don't make my Father's house a marketplace.”

17  t The disciples then remembered that the Scriptures say, “My love for your house burns in me like a fire.”

18 The Jewish leaders asked Jesus, “What miraclet will you work to show us why you have done this?”

19  t “Destroy this temple,” Jesus answered, “and in three days I will build it again!”

20 The leaders replied, “It took 46 years to build this temple. What makes you think you can rebuild it in three days?”
21 But Jesus was talking about his body as a temple.

22 And when he was raised from death, his disciples remembered what he had told them. Then they believed the Scriptures and the words of Jesus.

Jesus Knows //What People Are Like

23 In Jerusalem during Passover many people put their faith in Jesus, because they saw him work miracles.t 24 But Jesus knew what was in their hearts, and he would not let them have power over him. 25 No one had to tell him what people were like. He already knew.
