John 2:1-8 ▼

1 The next day there was a wedding celebration in the village of Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

2 and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the celebration.

3 The wine supply ran out during the festivities, so Jesus’ mother told him, “They have no more wine.”

4 “Dear woman, that’s not our problem,” Jesus replied. “My time has not yet come.”

5 But his mother told the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

6 Standing nearby were six stone water jars, used for Jewish ceremonial washing. Each could hold twenty to thirty gallons.

7 Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” When the jars had been filled,

8 he said, “Now dip some out, and take it to the master of ceremonies.” So the servants followed his instructions.
