41When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,+2(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)+3He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.+4And he must needs go through Samaria.+5Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.+6Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with
his journey, sat thus on the well:
and it was about the sixth hour.+7There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her,
Give me to drink.+8(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)+9Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.+10Jesus answered and said unto her,
If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.+11The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?+12Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?+13Jesus answered and said unto her,
Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:+14But 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.+15The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.+16Jesus saith unto her,
Go, call thy husband, and come hither.+17The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her,
Thou hast well said, I have no husband:+18For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.+19The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.+20Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.+21Jesus saith unto her,
Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.+22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.+23But 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.+24God
is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth.+25The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.+26Jesus saith unto her,
I that speak unto thee am
he.+
The Disciples Return and Marvel
27And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?+28The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,+29Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?+30Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.+31In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.+32But he said unto them,
I have meat to eat that ye know not of.+33Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him
ought to eat?+34Jesus saith unto them,
My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.+35Say 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.+36And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.+37And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.+38I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.+
Many Samaritans Believe
39And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.+40So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.+41And many more believed because of his own word;+42And 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.+
43Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.+44For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.+45Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.+46So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.+47When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.+48Then said Jesus unto him,
Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.+49The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.+50Jesus saith unto him,
Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.+51And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told
him,
saying, Thy son liveth.+52Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.+53So the father knew that
it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him,
Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.+54This
is again the second miracle
that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.+
