John 2:10-25

¹⁰and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when the guests have drunk freely, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now!”

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

¹²After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

¹³The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

¹⁴He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting.

¹⁵He made a whip of cords and drove all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers’ money and overthrew their tables.

¹⁶To those who sold the doves, he said, “Take these things out of here! Don’t make my Father’s house a marketplace!”

¹⁷His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will eat me up.”

¹⁸The Jews therefore answered him, “What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?”

¹⁹Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

²⁰The Jews therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! Will you raise it up in three days?”

²¹But he spoke of the temple of his body.

²²When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

²³Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

²⁴But Jesus didn’t entrust himself to them, because he knew everyone,

²⁵and because he didn’t need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
