Book of Common Prayer

¹² Take heed, brethren, that there be in none of you an evil heart in unbelief, that he should depart from the living God; ¹³ but exhort one another daily, while it is called today, lest any of you grow hard-hearted through the deceitfulness of sin.

¹⁴ We are partakers of Christ if we keep sure until the end the first confidence, ¹⁵ as long as it is said: Today, if you hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as when you rebelled. ¹⁶ For some, when they heard, rebelled – though not everyone who came out of Egypt under Moses. ¹⁷ But with whom was he displeased for forty years? Was he not displeased with those who sinned, whose bodies were overthrown in the desert? ¹⁸ To whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, but to those who did not believe? ¹⁹ And we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Christ turns the water into wine, and drives the buyers and sellers out of the temple.

2 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana, a village of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. ² And Jesus was invited also, and his disciples, to the marriage. ³ And when the wine failed, Jesus’ mother said to him, They have no wine. ⁴ Jesus said to her, Woman, what have I to do with you? My hour is not yet come. ⁵ And his mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.

⁶ And there were standing there six waterpots of stone, for the purification rites of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. ⁷ And Jesus said to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. ⁸ And he said to them, Draw some out now, and bring it to the master of the feast. And they brought it.

⁹ When the master of the feast tasted the water that was turned to wine, and did not know where it was from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), he called the bridegroom ¹⁰ and said to him, All men at the beginning set out good wine, and when people have drunk, then that which is worse. But you have kept back the good wine until now.

¹¹ This beginning of miracles Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and showed his glory, and his disciples believed on him. ¹² After that, he descended into Capernaum with his mother and his brethren and his disciples, but continued not many days there.
