s standing, and two of his disciples; and
he looked upon Jesus as he walked and saith, "Behold, the Lamb of
God!" And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
And Jesus turned, and beheld them following, and saith unto them,
"What seek ye?"
And they said unto him, "Rabbi" (which is to say, being interpreted,
Teacher), "where abidest thou?"
He saith unto them, "Come, and ye shall see."
They came therefore and saw where he abode; and they abode with him
that day: it was about the tenth hour.
One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother. He findeth first his own brother Simon, and
saith unto him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is, being
interpreted, Christ). He brought him unto Jesus.
Jesus looked upon him, and said, "Thou art Simon the son of John: thou
shalt be called Cephas" (which is by interpretation, Peter).
On the morrow he was minded to go forth into Galilee, and he findeth
Philip: and Jesus saith unto him, "Follow me." Now Philip was from
Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip findeth Nathanael,

Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art King

Jesus answered and said unto him, "Because I said unto thee, 'I saw
thee underneath the fig tree,' believest thou? thou shalt see greater
things than these."
And he saith unto him, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye shall see
the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon
the Son of man."
THE FIRST MIRACLE.
And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the
mother of Jesus was there: and Jesus also was bidden, and his
disciples, to the marriage.
And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, "They
have no wine."
And Jesus saith unto her, "Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine
hour is not yet come."
His mother saith unto the servants, "Whatsoever he saith unto
