1 (NIV) On the third day a
wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was
there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been
invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, Jesus'
mother said to him, "They have no more wine." 4
"Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied.
"My time has not yet come." 5 His mother said to the
servants, "Do whatever he tells you." 6 Nearby stood six stone
water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial
washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. {[6] Greek
two to three metretes (probably about 75 to 115 liters)}
