John:4:1 @
When Jesus therefore understood that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus maketh more disciples ,
and baptizeth more than John ,
drb @
John:4:2 @(
Though Jesus himself did not baptize ,
but his disciples ,)
drb @
John:4:3 @
He left Judea ,
and went again into Galilee .
drb @
John:4:4 @
And he was of necessity to pass through Samaria .
drb @
John:4:5 @
He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria ,
which is called Sichar ,
near the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph .
drb @
John:4:6 @
Now Jacob '
s well was there .
Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey ,
sat thus on the well .
It was about the sixth hour .
drb @
John:4:7 @
There cometh a woman of Samaria ,
to draw water .
Jesus saith to her :
Give me to drink .
drb @
John:4:8 @
For his disciples were gone into the city to buy meats .
drb @
John:4:9 @
Then that Samaritan woman saith to him :
How dost thou ,
being a Jew ,
ask of me to drink ,
who am a Samaritan woman ?
For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans .
drb @
John:4:10 @
Jesus answered ,
and said to her :
If thou didst know the gift of God ,
and who he is that saith to thee ,
Give me to drink ;
thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him ,
and he would have given thee living water
drb @
John:4:11 @
The woman saith to him :
Sir ,
thou hast nothing wherein to draw ,
and the well is deep ;
from whence then hast thou living water ?
drb @
John:4:12 @
Art thou greater than our father Jacob ,
who gave us the well ,
and drank thereof himself ,
and his children ,
and his cattle ?
drb @
John:4:13 @
Jesus answered ,
and said to her :
Whosoever drinketh of this water ,
shall thirst again ;
but he that shall drink of the water that I will give him ,
shall not thirst for ever :
drb @
John:4:14 @
But the water that I will give him ,
shall become in him a fountain of water ,
springing up into life everlasting .
drb @
John:4:15 @
The woman saith to him :
Sir ,
give me this water ,
that I may not thirst ,
nor come hither to draw .
drb @
John:4:16 @
Jesus saith to her :
Go ,
call thy husband ,
and come hither .
17 The woman answered ,
and said :
I have no husband .
Jesus said to her :
Thou hast said well ,
I have no husband :
drb @
John:4:17 @
For thou hast had five husbands :
and he whom thou now hast ,
is not thy husband .
This thou hast said truly .
drb @
John:4:18 @
The woman saith to him :
Sir ,
I perceive that thou art a prophet .
drb @
John:4:19 @
Our fathers adored on this mountain ,
and you say ,
that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore .
drb @
John:4:20 @
Jesus saith to her :
Woman ,
believe me ,
that the hour cometh ,
when you shall neither on this mountain ,
not in Jerusalem ,
adore the Father .
drb @
John:4:21 @
You adore that which you know not :
we adore that which we know ;
for salvation is of the Jews .
drb @
John:4:22 @
But the hour cometh ,
and now is ,
when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth .
For the Father also seeketh such to adore him .
drb @
John:4:23 @
God is a spirit ;
and they that adore him ,
must adore him in spirit and in truth .
drb @
John:4:24 @
The woman saith to him :
I know that the Messias cometh (
who is called Christ );
therefore ,
when he is come ,
he will tell us all things .
drb @
John:4:25 @
Jesus saith to her :
I am he ,
who am speaking with thee .
drb @
John:4:26 @
And immediately his disciples came ;
and they wondered that he talked with the woman .
Yet no man said :
What seekest thou ?
or ,
why talkest thou with her ?
