New International Version NIV
1 And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.
1
On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,
2 And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.
2
and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
3 And the wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to him: They have no wine.
3
When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
4 And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My hour is not yet come.
4
“Woman,why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother saith to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.
5
His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three measures apiece.
6
Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Jesus saith to them: Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
7
Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.
8 And Jesus saith to them: Draw out now and carry to the chief steward of the feast. And they carried it.
8
Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”They did so,
9 And when the chief steward had tasted the water made wine and knew not whence it was, but the waiters knew who had drawn the water: the chief steward calleth the bridegroom,
9
and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside
10 And saith to him: Every man at first setteth forth good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse. But thou hast kept the good wine until now.
10
and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”
11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
11
What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
