John chapter 2

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

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

And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.

Jesus said to her, Woman, what have I to do with you? my hour is not yet come.

His mother said to the servants, Whatever he said to you, do it.

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

Jesus said to them, Fill the water pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

And he said to them, Draw out now, and bear to the governor of the feast. And they bore it.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not from where it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew; ) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

And said to him, Every man at the beginning does set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but you have kept the good wine until now.

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

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

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

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

And when he had made a whip 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 said to them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

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

Then answered the Jews and said to him, What sign show you to us, seeing that you do these things?

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

Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will you raise it up in three days?

But he spoke of the temple of his body.

When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this to them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.

But Jesus did not commit himself to them, because he knew all men,

And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.

John chapter 3

There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

The same came to Jesus by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that you do, except God be with him.

Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Nicodemus said to him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Marvel not that I said to you, You must be born again.

The wind blows where it wants, and you hear the sound thereof, but can not tell from where it comes, and where it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Nicodemus answered and said to him, How can these things be?

Jesus answered and said to him, Are you a master of Israel, and know not these things?

Truly, truly, I say to you, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and you receive not our witness.

If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not, how shall you believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?

And no man has ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

That whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are worked in God.

After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.

And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

For John was not yet cast into prison.

Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.

And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bore witness, behold, the same baptizes, and all men come to him.

John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.

He that has the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

He must increase, but I must decrease.

He that comes from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth: he that comes from heaven is above all.

And what he has seen and heard, that he testifies; and no man receives his testimony.

He that has received his testimony has set to his seal that God is true.

For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God: for God gives not the Spirit by measure to him.

The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.

He that believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God stays on him.

John chapter 4

When therefore the LORD knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples, )

He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

And he must needs go through Samaria.

Then comes he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

There comes a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus said to her, Give me to drink.

(For his disciples were gone away to the city to buy meat. )

Then said the woman of Samaria to him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that said to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked of him, and he would have given you living water.

The woman said to him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where then have you that living water?

Are you greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again:

But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come here to draw.

Jesus said to her, Go, call your husband, and come here.

The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have well said, I have no husband:

For you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband: in that said you truly.

The woman said to him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

Jesus said to her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

You worship you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The woman said to him, I know that Messias comes, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

Jesus said to her, I that speak to you am he.

And on this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seek you? or, Why talk you with her?

The woman then left her water pot, and went her way into the city, and said to the men,

Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

Then they went out of the city, and came to him.

In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.

But he said to them, I have meat to eat that you know not of.

Therefore said the disciples one to another, Has any man brought him ought to eat?

Jesus said to them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

Say not you, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.

And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to life eternal: that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.

And herein is that saying true, One sows, and another reaps.

I sent you to reap that where on you bestowed no labor: other men labored, and you are entered into their labors.

And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.

So when the Samaritans were come to him, they sought him that he would tarry with them: and he stayed there two days.

And many more believed because of his own word;

And said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.

Now after two days he departed there, and went into Galilee.

For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.

So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went to him, and sought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

Then said Jesus to him, Except you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.

The nobleman said to him, Sir, come down ere my child die.

Jesus said to him, Go your way; your son lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken to him, and he went his way.

And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Your son lives.

Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said to him, Your son lives: and himself believed, and his whole house.

This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.
