(40)Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard
it from John, and followed him. (41)He first finds his brother Simon,
and says to him: We have found the Messiah, which is interpreted,
Christ. (42)And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus, beholding him, said:
Thou art Simon the son of Jonah; thou shalt be called Cephas, which is
interpreted, Peter[1:42].
(43)On the morrow he would go forth into Galilee. And he finds Philip;
and Jesus says to him: Follow me. (44)Now Philip was from Bethsaida,
of the city of Andrew and Peter. (45)Philip finds Nathanael, and says
to him: We have found him of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets
wrote, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth. (46)And
Nathanael said to him: Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip
says to him: Come and see. (47)Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and
says of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
(48)Nathanael says to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and
said to him: Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the
fig-tree, I saw thee. (49)Nathanael answered: Rabbi; thou art the Son
of God, thou art the King of Israel. (50)Jesus answered and said to
him: Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, believest
thou? Thou shalt see greater things than these. (51)And he says to
him: Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth[1:51] ye shall see
heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the
Son of man.

AND on the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the
mother of Jesus was there. (2)And Jesus also was bidden, and his
disciples, to the marriage. (3)And wine having failed, the mother of
Jesus says to him: They have no wine. (4)Jesus says to her: Woman,
what have I to do with thee? My hour is not yet come. (5)His mother
says to the servants: Whatever he says to you, do it. (6)Now there
were set there six water-pots of stone, after the Jewish custom of
purifying, containing two or three firkins[2:6] apiece. (7)Jesus says
to them: Fill the water-pots with water. And they filled them up to
the brim. (8)And he says to them: Draw out now, and bear to the ruler
of the feast. And they bore it. (9)When the ruler of the feast tasted
the water that was made wine (and he knew not whence it was, but the
servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called
the bridegroom, (10)and says to him: Every man sets forth the good
wine first; and when they have drunk freely, then that which is worse.
Thou hast kept the good wine until now. (11)This beginning of the
signs Jesus wrought in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and
his disciples believed on him.
(12)After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his
brothers, and his disciples; and they abode there not many days.
