"Woman," said Jesus, "what have you to do with me? My time is not yet come." His mother said to the attendants, "Whatever he may tell you to do, do it." Now there were six stone water-jars standing there, according to the Jewish rites of purification, each holding about twenty gallons. Jesus said, "Fill up the jars with water." So they filled them brimful. Then he said, "Draw some out now, and carry it to the master of the feast." So they carried it. And when the master of the feast had tasted of the water which had been made wine, not knowing where it came from, though the attendants who had drawn it knew, he called the bridegroom and said to him. "Everybody serves first the good wine, and when people have drunk freely, the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now." This beginning of signs Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee, and showed forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him there. Afterward he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers and his disciples, and remained there a few days.
