THE FIRST MIRACLE.

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the

mother of Jesus was there: and Jesus also was bidden, and his

disciples, to the marriage.

And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, "They

have no wine."

And Jesus saith unto her, "Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine

hour is not yet come."

His mother saith unto the servants, "Whatsoever he saith unto you, do

it."

Now there were six waterpots of stone set there after the Jews' manner

of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto

them, "Fill the waterpots with water."

And they filled them up to the brim.

And he saith unto them, "Draw out now, and bear unto the ruler of the

feast."

And they bare it. And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water now

become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants that had

drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast calleth the bridegroom,

and saith unto him, "Every man setteth on first the good wine; and

when men have drunk freely, then that which is worse: thou hast kept

the good wine until now."

This beginning of his signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and

manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his

brethren, and his disciples; and there they abode not many days.
