7And Iesus sayde vnto them, Fill the waterpots with water. Then they filled them vp to the brim.
8Then he sayde vnto them, Draw out nowe and beare vnto the gouernour of the feast. So they bare it.

16And said vnto them that solde doues, Take these things hence: make not my fathers house, an house of marchandise.
17And his disciples remembred, that it was written, The zeale of thine house hath eaten me vp.
18Then answered the Iewes, and saide vnto him, What signe shewest thou vnto vs, that thou doest these things?
19Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Destroy this Temple, and in three daies I will raise it vp againe.
20Then said the Iewes, Fourtie and sixe yeeres was this Temple a building, and wilt thou reare it vp in three daies?
21But he spake of the temple of his bodie.
22Assoone therefore as he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembred that hee thus sayde vnto them: and they beleeued the Scripture, and the worde which Iesus had saide.
23Nowe when hee was at Hierusalem at the Passeouer in the feast, many beleeued in his Name, when they sawe his miracles which he did.
