1On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,
2ⲁⲩⲑⲁϩⲉⲙ ⳿ⲡⲕⲉⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϩⲟⲡ.
2and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲛⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲏⲣⲡ ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⳿ⲑⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛⲧⲟⲩ ⲏⲣⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
3When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁϧⲟ ⲛⲉⲙⲏⲓ ϩⲱⲓ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲉⲥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ.
4“Woman, why does this concern us?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”
6ⲛⲁⲩⲭⲏ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲛϩⲩⲇⲣⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲱⲛⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⳿ⲡⲧⲟⲩⲃⲟ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲉⲩⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲧⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲃ̅ ⲓⲉ ⲅ̅ ⳿ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲓ.
6Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.
7ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϩⲩⲇⲣⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲙⲁϩⲟⲩ ϣⲁ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ.
7Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.
8ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲧϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ.
8“Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,
9ϩⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲉⲙϯⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲁϥⲉⲣ ⳿ⲏⲣⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲑⲱⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲓⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁϩ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲁ ⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⳿ⲧⲣⲓⲕⲗⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲡⲁⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲧ.
9and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not know where it was from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside
10ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉϣⲁⲩ ⲭⲱ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲏⲣⲡ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲛⲉϥ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲩϣⲁⲛⲑⲓϧⲓ ϣⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧ⳿ⲥⲃⲟⲕ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲕ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲏⲣⲡ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲛⲉϥ ϣⲁ ϯⲛⲟⲩ.
10and said, “Everyone serves the fine wine first, and then the cheap wine after the guests are drunk. But you have saved the fine wine until now!”
11ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲟⲩⲓⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲁⲓϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲕⲁⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲉ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
11Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲕⲁⲫⲁⲣⲛⲁⲟⲩⲙ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ.
12After this, He went down to Capernaum with His mother and brothers and His disciples, and they stayed there a few days.
13ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥϧⲉⲛⲧ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅.
13When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϫⲓⲙⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧϯ ⳿ⲉϩⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϭⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϥⲁⲓⲕⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⲉⲩϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ.
14In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲑⲁⲙⲓⲟ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲅⲉⲗⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲛⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓϥⲁⲓⲕⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⲁϥⲫⲟⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲧⲣⲁⲡⲉⲍⲁ ⲁϥⲫⲟⲛϫⲟⲩ.
15So He made a whip out of cords and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle. He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
16ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧϯ ϭⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲗⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣ ⳿ⲡⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲧ.
16To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”
17ⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ⲫⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲡⲭⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕⲏⲓ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙⲧ.
17His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”
18ⲁⲩⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲕⲛⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲕ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ.
18On account of this, the Jews demanded, “What sign can You show us to prove Your authority to do these things?”
19ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲃⲉⲗ ⲡⲁⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲁⲧⲁϩⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ.
19Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”
20ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲣ ⲙ̅ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⳿ⲭ ⲛⲁⲧⲁϩⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ.
20“This temple took forty-six years to build,” the Jews replied, “and You are going to raise it up in three days?”
21⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲱⲙⲁ.
21But Jesus was speaking about the temple of His body.
22ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ⲫⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
22After He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
23ⲉϥⲭⲏ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϣⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
23While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His name.
24⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥⲧⲉⲛϩⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉϫⲉ ⲛⲁϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ.
24But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.
25ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϧⲁ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ
25He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man.
