John 2:1-10

1 Three days later a wedding took place in the city of Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there.
2 Jesus and his disciples had been invited too.
3 When the wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, "They're out of wine."
4 Jesus said to her, "Why did you come to me? My time has not yet come."
5 His mother told the servers, "Do whatever he tells you."
6 Six stone water jars were there. They were used for Jewish purification rituals. Each jar held 18 to 27 gallons.
7 Jesus told the servers, "Fill the jars with water." The servers filled the jars to the brim.
8 Jesus said to them, "Pour some, and take it to the person in charge." The servers did as they were told.
9 The person in charge tasted the water that had become wine. He didn't know where it had come from, although the servers who had poured the water knew. The person in charge called the groom
10 and said to him, "Everyone serves the best wine first. When people are drunk, the host serves cheap wine. But you have saved the best wine for now."
