1 Two days later there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,
1 On (A)the third day there was a wedding in (B)Cana of Galilee, and the (C)mother of Jesus was there;
1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:
1 On the third day of that week there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee. Jesus' mother was there,
3 Now the wine ran short; whereupon the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine."
3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.”
3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
3 When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother told Him, “They don’t have any wine.”
3 When the wine ran out, Jesus' mother told him, "They don't have any more wine."
4 "Leave the matter in my hands," He replied; "the time for me to act has not yet come."
4 And Jesus *said to her, “(E)Woman, (a)(F)what does that have to do with us? (G)My hour has not yet come.”
4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
4 “What has this concern of yours to do with Me,(a)(D) woman?”(E) Jesus asked. “My hour(b) has not yet come.”
4 "How does that concern us, dear lady?" Jesus asked her. "My time hasn't come yet."
6 Now there were six stone jars standing there (in accordance with the Jewish regulations for purification)
6 Now there were six stone waterpots set there (I)for the Jewish custom of purification, containing (b)twenty or thirty gallons each.
6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
6 Now six stone water jars had been set there for Jewish purification.(F) Each contained 20 or 30 gallons.(c)
6 Now standing there were six stone water jars used for the Jewish rites of purification, each one holding from two to three measures.
7 Jesus said to the attendants, "Fill the jars with water." And they filled them to the brim.
7 Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.
7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
7 “Fill the jars with water,” Jesus told them. So they filled them to the brim.
7 Jesus told the servants, "Fill the jars with water." So they filled them up to the brim.
8 Then He said, "Now, take some out, and carry it to the President of the feast."
8 And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the (c)headwaiter.” So they took it to him.
8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
8 Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the man in charge of the banquet." So they did.
9 So they carried some to him. And no sooner had the President tasted the water now turned into wine, than--not knowing where it came from, though the attendants who had drawn the water knew--he called to the bridegroom
9 When the headwaiter tasted the water (J)which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the bridegroom,
9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
9 When the chief servant tasted the water (after it had become wine), he did not know where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew. He called the groom
9 When the man in charge of the banquet tasted the water that had become wine (without knowing where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew), he called for the bridegroom
10 and said to him, "It is usual to put on the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then that which is inferior. But you have kept the good wine till now."
10 and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people (K)have (d)drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.”
10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.
10 and told him, “Everyone sets out the fine wine first, then, after people have drunk freely, the inferior. But you have kept the fine wine until now.”
10 and told him, "Everyone serves the best wine first, and the cheap kind when people are drunk. But you have kept the best wine until now!"
11 This, the first of His miracles, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee, and thus displayed His glorious power; and His disciples believed in Him.
11 This beginning of His (e)(L)signs Jesus did in Cana of (M)Galilee, and manifested His (N)glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12 After this, Jesus went down to Capernaum he, his mother, his brothers, and his disciples and they remained there for a few days.
14 And He found in the Temple the dealers in cattle and sheep and in pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.
14 (U)And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables.
14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
14 In the temple complex(O) He found people selling oxen, sheep, and doves, and He also found the money changers sitting there.
14 In the Temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, as well as moneychangers sitting at their tables.
15 So He plaited a whip of rushes, and drove all--both sheep and bullocks--out of the Temple. The small coin of the brokers He upset on the ground and overturned their tables.
15 And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables;
15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

15 After making a whip out of cords, he drove all of them out of the Temple, including the sheep and the cattle. He scattered the coins of the moneychangers and knocked over their tables.
16 And to the pigeon-dealers He said, "Take these things away. Do not turn my Father's house into a market."
16 and to those who were selling (V)the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making (W)My Father’s house a (f)place of business.”
16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.
16 He told those who were selling doves, “Get these things out of here! Stop turning My Father’s(R) house(S) into a marketplace!”(f)(T)
16 Then he told those who were selling the doves, "Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father's house a marketplace!"
17 This recalled to His disciples the words of Scripture, "My zeal for Thy House will consume me."
17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.
17 And His disciples remembered that it is written: Zeal(U) for Your house will consume(V) Me.(W)(g)
17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18 So the Jews asked Him, "What proof of your authority do you exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?"
18 (Z)The Jews then said to Him, “(AA)What sign do You show us (g)as your authority for doing these things?”
18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
18 So the Jews replied to Him, “What sign of authority will You show us for doing these things?”
18 Then the Jewish leaders asked him, "What sign can you show us as authority for doing these things?"
20 "It has taken forty-six years," replied the Jews, "to build this Sanctuary, and will you rebuild it in three days?"
20 (AC)The Jews then said, “It took (AD)forty-six years to build this (i)temple, and will You raise it up in three days?”
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
20 Therefore the Jews said, “This sanctuary took 46 years to build, and will You raise it up in three days?”(Z)
20 The Jewish leaders said, "This sanctuary has been under construction for 46 years, and you're going to rebuild it in three days?"
22 When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples recollected that He had said this; and they believed the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.
22 So when He was raised from the dead, His (AF)disciples (AG)remembered that He said this; and they believed (AH)the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
