John 2:3

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

At the wedding there was not enough wine, so Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”

See the chapter Copy

You give us the wine that makes us happy, the oil that makes our skin soft, and the food that makes us strong.

Don’t worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks for what you have.

So Mary and Martha sent someone to tell Jesus, “Lord, your dear friend Lazarus is sick.”

This wine is my blood, which will be poured out to forgive the sins of many and begin the new agreement from God to his people.

People still ask for wine in the marketplaces, but all the joy is gone. It was carried off with everything else.

People enjoy eating, and wine makes life happier. But money solves a lot of problems.

Jesus and his followers were also invited.

Jesus answered, “Dear woman, why are you telling me this? It is not yet time for me to begin my work.”
