rkjnt John:4:5-38
rkjnt@John:4:5 @ Then he came to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
rkjnt@John:4:6 @ Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus, therefore, being wearied from his journey, sat by the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
rkjnt@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus said to her, Give me a drink.
rkjnt@John:4:8 @ (For his disciples had gone away to the city to buy food.)
rkjnt@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
rkjnt@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, Give me a drink; you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.
rkjnt@John:4:11 @ The woman said to him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where do you get that living water?
rkjnt@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
rkjnt@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again:
rkjnt@John:4:14 @ But whoever drinks 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 eternal life.
rkjnt@John:4:15 @ The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.
rkjnt@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, Go, call your husband, and come here.
rkjnt@John:4:17 @ The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have well said, I have no husband:
rkjnt@John:4:18 @ For you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband: in that you spoke truly.
rkjnt@John:4:19 @ The woman said to him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
rkjnt@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; but you say that Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
rkjnt@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes when you shall worship the Father neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem.
rkjnt@John:4:22 @ You do not know what you worship: we know what we worship: for salvation is from the Jews.
rkjnt@John:4:23 @ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.
rkjnt@John:4:24 @ God is Spirit: and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
rkjnt@John:4:25 @ The woman said to him, I know that Messiah comes, who is called Christ: when he comes, he will tell us all things.
rkjnt@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her, I who speak to you am he.
rkjnt@John:4:27 @ And at this moment his disciples came, and marvelled that he was speaking with a woman: yet no one said, What do you seek? or, Why are you talking with her?
rkjnt@John:4:28 @ Then the woman left her waterpot, and went into the city, and said to the people,
rkjnt@John:4:29 @ Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did: is this not the Christ?
rkjnt@John:4:30 @ Then they went out of the city, and came to him.
rkjnt@John:4:31 @ In the meanwhile his disciples urged him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
rkjnt@John:4:32 @ But he said to them, I have food to eat of which you know nothing.
rkjnt@John:4:33 @ Therefore the disciples said to one another, Has any man brought him food?
rkjnt@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.
rkjnt@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are already white for harvest.
rkjnt@John:4:36 @ And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for life eternal: that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
rkjnt@John:4:37 @ And here the saying holds true, One sows, and another reaps.
rkjnt@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that upon which you bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and you have entered into their labours.
