6. The Jews have rules about ritual washing, and for this purpose six stone water jars were there, each one large enough to hold about a hundred litres.
7. Jesus said to the servants, “Fill these jars with water.” They filled them to the brim,
8. and then he told them, “Now draw some water out and take it to the man in charge of the feast.” They took him the water,
9. which now had turned into wine, and he tasted it. He did not know where this wine had come from (but, of course, the servants who had drawn out the water knew); so he called the bridegroom
10. and said to him, “Everyone else serves the best wine first, and after the guests have had plenty to drink, he serves the ordinary wine. But you have kept the best wine until now!”
11. Jesus performed this first miracle in Cana in Galilee; there he revealed his glory, and his disciples believed in him.
12. After this, Jesus and his mother, brothers, and disciples went to Capernaum and stayed there a few days.
13. It was almost time for the Passover Festival, so Jesus went to Jerusalem.
14. There in the Temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons, and also the moneychangers sitting at their tables.
