But he spake of the temple of his body.

Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father"s house an house of merchandise.

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;

And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

And the Jews" passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.

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

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.

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,

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.

And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father"s business?

And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.

And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.

And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.

And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.

But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day"s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.
