John 2:3-7
<< John 1 | John 2 | John 3 >>

When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. [1] Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim.
