ಯೋಹಾನನು 2

1 ಮೂರನೆಯ ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಗಲಿಲಾಯದ ಕಾನಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದು ಮದುವೆ ಆಯಿತು. ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಯೇಸುವಿನ ತಾಯಿಯು ಇದ್ದಳು.

2 ಇದಲ್ಲದೆ ಯೇಸುವನ್ನೂ ಆತನ ಶಿಷ್ಯರನ್ನೂ ಮದುವೆಗೆ ಕರೆದಿ ದ್ದರು.

3 ಆಗ ಅವರಿಗೆ ದ್ರಾಕ್ಷಾರಸವು ಸಾಲದೆ ಹೋದ ದ್ದರಿಂದ ಯೇಸುವಿನ ತಾಯಿಯು ಆತನಿಗೆ--ಅವರಿಗೆ ದ್ರಾಕ್ಷಾರಸವು ಇಲ್ಲ ಅಂದಳು.

4 ಯೇಸು ಆಕೆಗೆ-- ಸ್ತ್ರೀಯೇ, ನನ್ನ ಗೊಡವೆ ನಿನಗೆ ಯಾಕೆ? ನನ್ನ ಗಳಿಗೆ ಯು ಇನ್ನೂ ಬಂದಿಲ್ಲ ಅಂದನು.

5 ಆತನ ತಾಯಿಯು ಸೇವಕರಿಗೆ--ಆತನು ನಿಮಗೆ ಏನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾನೋ ಅದನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿರಿ ಅಂದಳು.

6 ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯರ ಶುದ್ಧೀ ಕರಣದ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಎರಡು ಇಲ್ಲವೆ ಮೂರು ಕೊಳಗ ನೀರು ಹಿಡಿಯುವಷ್ಟು ಆರು ಕಲ್ಲಿನ ಬಾನೆಗಳು ಇದ್ದವು.

7 ಯೇಸು ಅವರಿಗೆ--ಆ ಬಾನೆ ಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನೀರು ತುಂಬಿರಿ ಅಂದನು. ಅವರು ಅವುಗಳನ್ನು ಕಂಠದವರೆಗೆ ತುಂಬಿದ್ದರು.

8 ಆತನು ಅವರಿಗೆ--ಈಗ ಇದನ್ನು ತೋಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗಿ ಔತಣದ ಪಾರುಪತ್ಯಗಾರನಿಗೆ ಕೊಡಿರಿ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಲು ಅವರು ತಕ್ಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗಿ ಕೊಟ್ಟರು.

9 ಔತಣದ ಪಾರುಪತ್ಯ ಗಾರನು ದ್ರಾಕ್ಷಾರಸವಾದ ನೀರನ್ನು ರುಚಿ ನೋಡಿದಾಗ ಅದು ಎಲ್ಲಿಂದ ಬಂತೆಂದು ತಿಳಿಯದವನಾಗಿ (ನೀರನ್ನು ತೋಡಿಕೊಂಡ ಸೇವಕರಿಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿತ್ತು) ಮದಲಿಂಗನನ್ನು ಕರೆದು

10 ಅವನಿಗೆ--ಪ್ರತಿ ಮನುಷ್ಯನು ಮೊದಲು ಒಳ್ಳೇ ದ್ರಾಕ್ಷಾರಸವನ್ನು ಕೊಟ್ಟು ಜನರು ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಕುಡಿದ ಮೇಲೆ ಕನಿಷ್ಠವಾದದ್ದನ್ನು ಕೊಡುತ್ತಾನೆ; ಆದರೆ ನೀನು ಇದು ವರೆಗೆ ಒಳ್ಳೇ ದ್ರಾಕ್ಷಾರಸವನ್ನು ಇಟ್ಟು ಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದೀ ಅಂದನು.

11 ಯೇಸು ಈ ಮೊದಲನೆಯ ಅದ್ಭುತ ಕಾರ್ಯವನ್ನು ಗಲಿಲಾಯದ ಕಾನಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾಡಿ ತನ್ನ ಮಹಿಮೆಯನ್ನು ತೋರ್ಪಡಿಸಿದನು; ಮತ್ತು ಆತನ ಶಿಷ್ಯರು ಆತನ ಮೇಲೆ ನಂಬಿಕೆ ಇಟ್ಟರು.

12 ಇದಾದ ಮೇಲೆ ಆತನೂ ಆತನ ತಾಯಿಯೂ ಆತನ ಸಹೋದರರೂ ಆತನ ಶಿಷ್ಯರೂ ಕಪೆರ್ನೌಮಿಗೆ ಹೋಗಿ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲವು ದಿವಸ ಇದ್ದರು.

13 ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯರ ಪಸ್ಕವು ಹತ್ತಿರವಾದಾಗ ಯೇಸು ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮಿಗೆ ಹೋಗಿ

14 ದೇವಾಲಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಎತ್ತು ಕುರಿ ಪಾರಿವಾಳ ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ಮಾರುವವ ರನ್ನೂ ಹಣ ಬದಲಾಯಿಸುವವರು ಕೂತಿರುವದನೂ ಕಂಡನು;

15 ಆಗ ಆತನು ಸಣ್ಣ ಹಗ್ಗಗಳಿಂದ ಕೊರಡೆ ಮಾಡಿ ಕುರಿ ಎತ್ತು ಸಹಿತ ಎಲ್ಲರನ್ನೂ ದೇವಾಲಯದ ಹೊರಕ್ಕೆ ಅಟ್ಟಿ ಚಿನಿವಾರರ ಹಣವನ್ನು ಚೆಲ್ಲಿ ಮೇಜು ಗಳನ್ನು ಕೆಡವಿದನು.

16 ಆತನು ಪಾರಿವಾಳ ಮಾರುವ ವರಿಗೆ--ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ಇಲ್ಲಿಂದ ತಕ್ಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗಿರಿ; ನನ್ನ ತಂದೆಯ ಮನೆಯನ್ನು ವ್ಯಾಪಾರದ ಮನೆಯ ನ್ನಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿರಿ ಅಂದನು.

17 ಆಗ ಆತನ ಶಿಷ್ಯರು--ನಿನ್ನ ಆಲಯದ ಆಸಕ್ತಿಯು ನನ್ನನ್ನು ದಹಿಸಿ ಬಿಟ್ಟಿದೆ ಎಂದು ಬರೆದಿರುವದನ್ನು ಜ್ಞಾಪಕಮಾಡಿ ಕೊಂಡರು.

18 ಆಗ ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯರು ಆತನಿಗೆ--ನೀನು ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ಮಾಡುವದಕ್ಕೆ ಯಾವ ಸೂಚಕಕಾರ್ಯ ವನ್ನು ನಮಗೆ ತೋರಿಸುತ್ತೀ ಎಂದು ಕೇಳಿದರು.

19 ಯೇಸು ಪ್ರತ್ಯುತ್ತರವಾಗಿ ಅವರಿಗೆ--ಈ ದೇವಾಲ ಯವನ್ನು ಕೆಡವಿದರೆ ನಾನು ಮೂರು ದಿನಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಅದನ್ನು ಎಬ್ಬಿಸುವೆನು ಅಂದನು.

20 ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಯೆಹೂದ್ಯರು-- ಈ ದೇವಾಲಯವನ್ನು ಕಟ್ಟುವದಕ್ಕೆ ನಾಲ್ವತ್ತಾರು ವರುಷಗಳು ಹಿಡಿದವು; ನೀನು ಮೂರು ದಿನಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಅದನ್ನು ಎಬ್ಬಿಸುವಿಯೋ ಅಂದರು.

21 ಆದರೆ ಆತನು ತನ್ನ ದೇಹವೆಂಬ ಆಲಯವನ್ನು ಕುರಿತು ಹೇಳಿದನು.

22 ಆದದರಿಂದ ಆತನು ಸತ್ತವರೊಳಗಿಂದ ಎದ್ದಮೇಲೆ ಆತನ ಶಿಷ್ಯರು ತಮಗೆ ಹೇಳಿದ ಈ ಮಾತನ್ನು ನೆನಪು ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಬರಹವನ್ನೂ ಯೇಸು ತಮಗೆ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದನ್ನೂ ನಂಬಿದರು.

23 ಆತನು ಪಸ್ಕಹಬ್ಬದ ದಿನದಲ್ಲಿ ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮಿ ನಲ್ಲಿದ್ದಾಗ ಆತನು ಮಾಡಿದ ಅದ್ಭುತ ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಅನೇಕರು ನೋಡಿ ಆತನ ಹೆಸರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಂಬಿಕೆ ಇಟ್ಟರು.

24 ಆದರೆ ಯೇಸು ತನ್ನನ್ನು ಅವರಿಗೆ ವಶಪಡಿಸಿ ಕೊಳ್ಳಲಿಲ್ಲ; ಯಾಕಂದರೆ ಆತನು ಎಲ್ಲರನ್ನೂ ಅರಿತ ವನಾಗಿದ್ದನು.

25 ಆತನು ಮನುಷ್ಯರ ಅಂತರಂಗವನ್ನು ತಿಳಿದವನಾದ ಕಾರಣ ಯಾರೂ ಯಾವ ಮನುಷ್ಯನ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಆತನಿಗೆ ಸಾಕ್ಷಿಕೊಡಬೇಕಾದ ಅವಶ್ಯವಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ.

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

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

3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

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

7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

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

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

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

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

13 And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

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

15 And when he had made a scourge 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;

16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise.

17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

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

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

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

23 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.

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

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

1 Then spake Elisha unto the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn: for the Lord hath called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land seven years.

2 And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.

3 And it came to pass at the seven years’ end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines: and she went forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.

4 And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha hath done.

5 And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

6 And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.

7 And Elisha came to Damascus; and Ben-hadad the king of Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come hither.

8 And the king said unto Hazael, Take a present in thine hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of the Lord by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

9 So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels’ burden, and came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Ben-hadad king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

10 And Elisha said unto him, Go, say unto him, Thou mayest certainly recover: howbeit the Lord hath shewed me that he shall surely die.

11 And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.

12 And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.

13 And Hazael said, But what, is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, The Lord hath shewed me that thou shalt be king over Syria.

14 So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told me that thou shouldest surely recover.

15 And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth, and dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died: and Hazael reigned in his stead.

16 And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

17 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.

19 Yet the Lord would not destroy Judah for David his servant’s sake, as he promised him to give him alway a light, and to his children.

20 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

21 So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.

22 Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

23 And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24 And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.

25 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign.

26 Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

27 And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in the sight of the Lord, as did the house of Ahab: for he was the son in law of the house of Ahab.

28 And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramoth-gilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.

29 And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
