John:4:27-38
bbe@John:4:27 @At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?
bbe@John:4:28 @Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,
bbe@John:4:29 @Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?
bbe@John:4:30 @So they went out of the town and came to him.
bbe@John:4:31 @While this was taking place, the disciples were saying to Jesus, Master, take some food.
bbe@John:4:32 @But he said to them, I have food of which you have no knowledge.
bbe@John:4:33 @So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?
bbe@John:4:34 @Jesus said, My food is to do the pleasure of him who sent me and to make his work complete.
bbe@John:4:35 @You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.
bbe@John:4:36 @He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together.
bbe@John:4:37 @In this the saying is a true one, One does the planting, and another gets in the grain.
bbe@John:4:38 @I sent you to get in grain which you had no hand in planting: other men did that work, and you take the reward.
