Isaiah 62: 1- 5

62:1 For the sake of Zion, I will not be silent, and for the sake of Jerusalem, I will not rest, until her Just One advances in splendor, and her Savior is kindled like a lamp.
62:2 And the Gentiles will see your Just One, and all the kings will see your Renown One. And you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord will choose.
62:3 And you shall be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
62:4 You will no longer called Forsaken. And your land will no longer be called Desolate. Instead, you shall be called My Will within it, and your land shall be called Inhabited. For the Lord has been well pleased with you, and your land will be inhabited.
62:5 For the young man will live with the virgin, and your children will live with you. And the groom will rejoice over the bride, and your God will rejoice over you.

First Letter to the Corinthians 12: 4- 11

12:4 Truly, there are diverse graces, but the same Spirit.
12:5 And there are diverse ministries, but the same Lord.
12:6 And there are diverse works, but the same God, who works everything in everyone.
12:7 However, the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one toward what is beneficial.
12:8 Certainly, to one, through the Spirit, is given words of wisdom; but to another, according to the same Spirit, words of knowledge;
12:9 to another, in the same Spirit, faith; to another, in the one Spirit, the gift of healing;
12:10 to another, miraculous works; to another, prophecy; to another, the discernment of spirits; to another, different kinds of languages; to another, the interpretation of words.
12:11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one according to his will.

John 2: 1- 11

2:1 And on the third day, a wedding was held in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
2:2 Now Jesus was also invited to the wedding, with his disciples.
2:3 And when the wine was failing, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.”
2:4 And Jesus said to her: “What is that to me and to you, woman? My hour has not yet arrived.”
2:5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
2:6 Now in that place, there were six stone water jars, for the purification ritual of the Jews, containing two or three measures each.
2:7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the water jars with water.” And they filled them to the very top.
2:8 And Jesus said to them, “Now draw from it, and carry it to the chief steward of the feast.” And they took it to him.
2:9 Then, when the chief steward had tasted the water made into wine, since he did not know where it was from, for only the servants who had drawn the water knew, the chief steward called the groom,
2:10 and he said to him: “Every man offers the good wine first, and then, when they have become inebriated, he offers what is worse. But you have kept the good wine until now.”
2:11 This was the beginning of the signs that Jesus accomplished in Cana of Galilee, and it manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
