John 2:1–12

Christ Changes Water to Wine

2On the third day there was a ^awedding in ^bCana of Galilee, and the ^cmother of Jesus was there. ²Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. ³And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”

⁴Jesus said to her, ^d“Woman, ^ewhat does your concern have to do with Me? ^fMy hour has not yet come.”

⁵His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”

⁶Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, ^gaccording to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. ⁷Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. ⁸And He said to them, “Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast.” And they took it. ⁹When the master of the feast had tasted ^hthe water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. ¹⁰And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”

The Disciples Believe

¹¹This ⁱbeginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, ^jand ¹manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.

¹²After this He went down to ^kCapernaum, He, His mother, ^lHis brothers, and His disciples; and they did not stay there many days.
