2. ²And Jhesus was clepid, and hise disciplis, to the weddyngis.
3. ³And whanne wijn failide, the modir of Jhesu seide to hym, Thei han not wijn.
4. ⁴And Jhesus seith to hir, What to me and to thee, womman? myn our cam not yit.
5. ⁵His modir seith to the mynystris, What euere thing he seie to you, do ye.
6. ⁶And there weren set `sixe stonun cannes, aftir the clensyng of the Jewis, holdynge ech tweyne ether thre metretis.
7. ⁷And Jhesus seith to hem, Fille ye the pottis with watir. And thei filliden hem, vp to the mouth.
8. ⁸And Jhesus seide to hem, Drawe ye now, and bere ye to the architriclyn. And thei baren.
9. ⁹And whanne the architriclyn hadde tastid the watir maad wiyn, and wiste not wherof it was, but the mynystris wisten that drowen the watir, the architriclyn clepith the spouse,
10. ¹⁰and seith to hym, Ech man settith first good wiyn, and whanne men ben fulfillid, thanne that that is worse; but thou hast kept the good wiyn `in to this tyme.
11. ¹¹Jhesus dide this the bigynnyng of signes in the Cane of Galilee, and schewide his glorie; and hise disciplis bileueden in hym.
12. ¹²Aftir these thingis he cam doun to Cafarnaum, and his modir, and hise britheren, and hise disciplis; and thei dwelliden `there not many daies.
13. ¹³And the pask of Jewis was nyy, and Jhesus wente vp to Jerusalem.
14. ¹⁴And he foond in the temple men sillynge oxun, and scheep, and culueris, and chaungeris sittynge.
15. ¹⁵And whanne he hadde maad as it were a scourge of smale cordis, he droof out alle of the temple, and oxun, and scheep; and he schedde the money of chaungeris, and turnede vpsedoun the boordis.
16. ¹⁶And he seide to hem that selden culueris, Take awei fro hennus these thingis, and nyle ye make the hous of my fadir an hous of marchaundise.
17. ¹⁷And hise disciplis hadden mynde, for it was writun, The feruent loue of thin hous hath etun me.
18. ¹⁸Therfor the Jewis answeriden, and seiden to hym, What token schewist thou to vs, that thou doist these thingis?
19. ¹⁹Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, Vndo ye this temple, and in thre daies Y schal reise it.
20. ²⁰Therfor the Jewis seiden to hym, In fourti and sixe yeer this temple was bildid, and schalt thou in thre daies reise it?
21. ²¹But he seide of the temple of his bodi.
22. ²²Therfor whanne he was risun fro deeth, hise disciplis hadden mynde, that he seide these thingis of his bodi; and thei bileueden to the scripture, and to the word that Jhesus seide.
23. ²³And whanne Jhesus was at Jerusalem in pask, in the feeste dai, many bileueden in his name, seynge his signes that he dide.
24. ²⁴But Jhesus trowide not hym silf to hem, for he knewe alle men;
25. ²⁵and for it was not nede to hym, that ony man schulde bere witnessyng, for he wiste, what was in man.
