thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
11
The woman saith
unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou
that living water?
12
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank
thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13
Jesus answered and said unto her,
Whosoever
drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
14
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give
him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing
up into everlasting life.
15
The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not,
neither come hither to draw.
16
Jesus saith unto her,
Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17
The
woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her,
Thou hast well said, I have no
husband:
18
For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in
that saidst thou truly.
19
The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

Our
fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to
worship.
21
Jesus saith unto her,
Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in
this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22
Ye worship ye know not what: we know
what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true
worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship
him.
24
God
is
a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship
him
in spirit and in truth.

I that speak unto thee am
he.

said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28

went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29
Come, see a man, which told me all things that
ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30
Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31
In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32
But he said unto them,
I
have meat to eat that ye know not of.
33
Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man
brought him
ought
to eat?
34
Jesus saith unto them,
My meat is to do the will of him that sent me,
and to finish his work.
35
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and
then
cometh harvest? behold,
I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.

and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

reapeth.
38
I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are
entered into their labours.

believed because of his own word;
42
And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of
thy saying: for we have heard
him
ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour
of the world.
