Verse

John - ch 4 v 1 - 20

  1. Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
  2. (although Jesus himself didn't baptize, but his disciples),
  3. he left Judea, and departed into Galilee.
  4. He needed to pass through Samaria.
  5. So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.
  6. Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour1.
  7. A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."
  8. For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
  9. The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, "How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
  10. Jesus answered 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."
  11. The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. From where then have you that living water?
  12. Are you greater than our father, Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, as did his children, and his livestock?"
  13. Jesus answered her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
  14. but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."
  15. The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I don't get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw."
  16. Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."
  17. The woman answered, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You said well, 'I have no husband,'
  18. for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly."
  19. The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
  20. Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship."
