Listen to John 1:47-2:11
47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and *said of him, “Here is truly an (A)Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!” 48Nathanael *said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before (B)Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49Nathanael answered Him, “(C)Rabbi, You are (D)the Son of God; You are the (E)King of Israel!” 50Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” 51And He *said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see (F)heaven opened and (G)the angels of God ascending and descending on (H)the Son of Man.”
Miracle at Cana
2On (I)the third day there was a wedding in (J)Cana of Galilee, and the (K)mother of Jesus was there; 2and both Jesus and His (L)disciples were invited to the wedding. 3When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4And Jesus *said to her, “[a](M)What business do you have with Me, (N)woman? (O)My hour has not yet come.” 5His (P)mother *said to the servants, “Whatever He tells you, do it.” 6Now there were six stone waterpots standing there (Q)for the Jewish custom of purification, containing [b]two or three measures each. 7Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. 8And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the [c]headwaiter.” And they took it to him. 9Now when the headwaiter tasted the water (R)which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter *called the groom, 10and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the guests (S)are drunk, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11This beginning of His [d](T)signs Jesus did in Cana of (U)Galilee, and revealed His (V)glory; and His disciples believed in Him.
