Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 2

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Και την τριτην ημεραν εγεινε γαμος εν Κανα της Γαλιλαιας, και ητο η μητηρ του Ιησου εκει.	1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Προσεκληθη δε και ο Ιησους και οι μαθηται αυτου εις τον γαμον.	2 Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.
3 Και επειδη ελειψεν ο οινος, λεγει η μητηρ του Ιησου προς αυτον? Οινον δεν εχουσι.	3 When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."
4 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Τι ειναι μεταξυ εμου και σου, γυναι; δεν ηλθεν ετι η ωρα μου.	4 (And) Jesus said to her, "Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come."
5 Λεγει η μητηρ αυτου προς τους υπηρετας? Ο, τι σας λεγει, καμετε.	5 His mother said to the servers, "Do whatever he tells you."
6 Ησαν δε εκει υδριαι λιθιναι εξ κειμεναι κατα το εθος του καθαρισμου των Ιουδαιων, χωρουσαι εκαστη δυο η τρια μετρα.	6 Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Γεμισατε τας υδριας υδατος. Και εγεμισαν αυτας εως ανω.	7 Jesus told them, "Fill the jars with water." So they filled them to the brim.
8 Και λεγει προς αυτους? Αντλησατε τωρα και φερετε προς τον αρχιτρικλινον. Και εφεραν.	8 Then he told them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it.
9 Καθως δε ο αρχιτρικλινος εγευθη το υδωρ εις οινον μεταβεβλημενον και δεν ηξευρε ποθεν ειναι, οι υπηρεται ομως ηξευρον οι αντλησαντες το υδωρ φωναζει τον νυμφιον ο αρχιτρικλινος	9 And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom
10 και λεγει προς αυτον? Πας ανθρωπος πρωτον τον καλον οινον βαλλει, και αφου πιωσι πολυ, τοτε τον κατωτερον? συ εφυλαξας τον καλον οινον εως τωρα.	10 and said to him, "Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now."
11 Ταυτην την αρχην των θαυματων εκαμεν ο Ιησους εν Κανα της Γαλιλαιας και εφανερωσε την δοξαν αυτου, και επιστευσαν εις αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου.	11 Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.
12 Μετα τουτο κατεβη εις Καπερναουμ αυτος και η μητηρ αυτου και οι αδελφοι αυτου και οι μαθηται αυτου, και εκει εμειναν ουχ πολλας ημερας.	12 After this, he and his mother, (his) brothers, and his disciples went down to Capernaum and stayed there only a few days.
13 Επλησιαζε δε το πασχα των Ιουδαιων, και ανεβη εις Ιεροσολυμα ο Ιησους.	13 Since the Passover of the Jews was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 Και ευρεν εν τω ιερω, τους πωλουντας βοας και προβατα και περιστερας, και τους αργυραμοιβους καθημενους.	14 He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, as well as the money-changers seated there.
15 Και ποιησας μαστιγα εκ σχοινιων, εδιωξε παντας εκ του ιερου και τα προβατα και τους βοας, και τα νομισματα των αργυραμοιβων εχυσε και τας τραπεζας ανετρεψε,	15 He made a whip out of cords and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen, and spilled the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables,
16 και προς τους πωλουντας τας περιστερας ειπε? Σηκωσατε ταυτα εντευθεν? μη καμνετε τον οικον του Πατρος μου οικον εμποριου.	16 and to those who sold doves he said, "Take these out of here, and stop making my Father's house a marketplace."
17 Τοτε ενεθυμηθησαν οι μαθηται αυτου οτι ειναι γεγραμμενον, Ο ζηλος του οικου σου με κατεφαγεν.	17 His disciples recalled the words of scripture, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18 Απεκριθησαν λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι και ειπον προς αυτον? Τι σημειον δεικνυεις εις ημας, διοτι καμνεις ταυτα;	18 At this the Jews answered and said to him, "What sign can you show us for doing this?"
19 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους? Χαλασατε τον ναον τουτον, και δια τριων ημερων θελω εγειρει αυτον.	19 Jesus answered and said to them, "Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up."
20 Και οι Ιουδαιοι ειπον? Εις τεσσαρακοντα και εξ ετη ωκοδομηθη ο ναος ουτος, και συ θελεις εγειρει αυτον εις τρεις ημερας;	20 The Jews said, "This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and you will raise it up in three days?"
21 Εκεινος ομως ελεγε περι του ναου του σωματος αυτου.	21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
22 Οτε λοιπον ηγερθη εκ νεκρων, ενεθυμηθησαν οι μαθηται αυτου οτι τουτο ελεγε προς αυτους, και επιστευσαν εις την γραφην και εις τον λογον, τον οποιον ειπεν ο Ιησους.	22 Therefore, when he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they came to believe the scripture and the word Jesus had spoken.
23 Και ενω ητο εν Ιεροσολυμοις κατα την εορτην του πασχα, πολλοι επιστευσαν εις το ονομα αυτου, βλεποντες αυτου τα θαυματα, τα οποια εκαμνεν.	23 While he was in Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, many began to believe in his name when they saw the signs he was doing.
24 Αυτος δε ο Ιησους δεν ενεπιστευετο εις αυτους, διοτι εγνωριζε παντας,	24 But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all,
25 και διοτι δεν ειχε χρειαν δια να μαρτυρηση τις περι του ανθρωπου? επειδη αυτος εγνωριζε τι ητο εντος του ανθρωπου.	25 and did not need anyone to testify about human nature. He himself understood it well.
