John 2:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Then he said unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. So they bare it.
9 Now when the governor of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, (for he knew not whence it was, but the servants, which drew the water, knew) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10 And said unto him, All men at the beginning set forth good wine, and when men have [a]well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept back the good wine until now.
