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