John - Chapter: 4


4:1	When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus more disciples doth make and baptize than John,
4:2	(though indeed Jesus himself was not baptizing, but his disciples,)
4:3	he left Judea and went away again to Galilee,
4:4	and it was behoving him to go through Samaria.
4:5	He cometh, therefore, to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place that Jacob gave to Joseph his son;
4:6	and there was there a well of Jacob. Jesus therefore having been weary from the journeying, was sitting thus on the well; it was as it were the sixth hour;
4:7	there cometh a woman out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, `Give me to drink;'
4:8	for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;
4:9	the Samaritan woman therefore saith to him, `How dost thou, being a Jew, ask drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?' for Jews have no dealing with Samaritans.
4:10	Jesus answered and said to her, `If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.'
4:11	The woman saith to him, `Sir, thou hast not even a vessel to draw with, and the well is deep; whence, then, hast thou the living water?
4:12	Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who did give us the well, and himself out of it did drink, and his sons, and his cattle?'
4:13	Jesus answered and said to her, `Every one who is drinking of this water shall thirst again;
4:14	but whoever may drink of the water that I will give him, may not thirst -- to the age; and the water that I will give him shall become in him a well of water, springing up to life age-during.'
4:15	The woman saith unto him, `Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.'
4:16	Jesus saith to her, `Go, call thy husband, and come hither;'
4:17	the woman answered and said, `I have not a husband.' Jesus saith to her, `Well didst thou say -- A husband I have not;
4:18	for five husbands thou hast had, and, now, he whom thou hast is not thy husband; this hast thou said truly.'
4:19	The woman saith to him, `Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet;
4:20	our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye -- ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.'
4:21	Jesus saith to her, `Woman, believe me, that there doth come an hour, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father;
4:22	ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;
4:23	but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;
4:24	God `is' a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'
4:25	The woman saith to him, `I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;'
4:26	Jesus saith to her, `I am `he', who am speaking to thee.'
4:27	And upon this came his disciples, and were wondering that with a woman he was speaking, no one, however, said, `What seekest thou?' or `Why speakest thou with her?'
4:28	The woman then left her water-jug, and went away to the city, and saith to the men,
4:29	`Come, see a man, who told me all things -- as many as I did; is this the Christ?'
4:30	They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming unto him.
4:31	And in the meanwhile his disciples were asking him, saying, `Rabbi, eat;'
4:32	and he said to them, `I have food to eat that ye have not known.'
4:33	The disciples then said one to another, `Did any one bring him anything to eat?'
4:34	Jesus saith to them, `My food is, that I may do the will of Him who sent me, and may finish His work;
4:35	do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh; lo, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white unto harvest already.
4:36	`And he who is reaping doth receive a reward, and doth gather fruit to life age-during, that both he who is sowing and he who is reaping may rejoice together;
4:37	for in this the saying is the true one, that one is the sower and another the reaper.
4:38	I sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others laboured, and ye into their labour have entered.
4:39	And from that city many believed in him, of the Samaritans, because of the word of the woman testifying, -- `He told me all things -- as many as I did.'
4:40	When, then, the Samaritans came unto him, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained there two days;
4:41	and many more did believe because of his word,
4:42	and said to the woman -- `No more because of thy speaking do we believe; for we ourselves have heard and known that this is truly the Saviour of the world -- the Christ.'
4:43	And after the two days he went forth thence, and went away to Galilee,
4:44	for Jesus himself testified that a prophet in his own country shall not have honour;
4:45	when then, he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all things that he did in Jerusalem in the feast -- for they also went to the feast.
4:46	Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine, and there was a certain courtier, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,
4:47	he, having heard that Jesus is come out of Judea to Galilee, went away unto him, and was asking him that he may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.
4:48	Jesus then said unto him, `If signs and wonders ye may not see, ye will not believe.'
4:49	The courtier saith unto him, `Sir, come down before my child die;'
4:50	Jesus saith to him, `Be going on; thy son doth live.' And the man believed the word that Jesus said to him, and was going on,
4:51	and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying -- `Thy child doth live;'
4:52	he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him -- `Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him;'
4:53	then the father knew that `it was' in that hour in which Jesus said to him -- `Thy son doth live,' and he himself believed, and his whole house;
4:54	this again a second sign did Jesus, having come out of Judea to Galilee.


4:1	When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
4:2	(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
4:3	He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
4:4	And he must needs go through Samaria.
4:5	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.
4:6	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.
4:7	There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
4:8	(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
4:9	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.
4:10	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.
4:11	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?
4:12	Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
4:13	Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
4:14	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.
4:15	The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
4:16	Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
4:17	The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
4:18	For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
4:19	The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
4:20	Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
4:21	Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
4:22	Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
4:23	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.
4:24	God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
4:25	The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
4:26	Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
4:27	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?
4:28	The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
4:29	Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
4:30	Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
4:31	In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
4:32	But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
4:33	Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?
4:34	Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
4:35	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.
4:36	And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
4:37	And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
4:38	I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
4:39	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.
4:40	So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
4:41	And many more believed because of his own word;
4:42	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.
4:43	Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
4:44	For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
4:45	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.
4:46	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.
4:47	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.
4:48	Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
4:49	The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
4:50	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.
4:51	And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.
4:52	Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
4:53	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.
4:54	This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.


4:1	Then when the Lord knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus made more disciples and baptized more than John
4:2	(though truly Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples),
4:3	He left Judea and went away into Galilee again.
4:4	And it was needful for Him to pass through Samaria.
4:5	And He came to a Samaritan city called Sychar, near the piece of land Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
4:6	And Jacob's fountain was there. Then being wearied by the journey, Jesus sat thus on the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.
4:7	A woman came out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, Give Me some to drink.
4:8	For His disciples had gone away into the city that they might buy provisions.
4:9	Then the Samaritan woman said to Him, How do you, being a Jew, ask to drink from me, I being a Samaritan woman? For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.
4:10	Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who is the One saying to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked Him, and He would give you living water.
4:11	The woman said to Him, Sir, you have no vessel, and the well is deep. From where then do you have living water?
4:12	Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the well, and he and his sons and his livestock drank out of it?
4:13	Jesus answered and said to her, Everyone drinking of this water will thirst again;
4:14	but whoever may drink of the water which I will give him will never ever thirst, but the water which I will give to him will become a fountain of water in him, springing up into everlasting life.
4:15	The woman said to Him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.
4:16	Jesus said to her, Go, call your husband and come here.
4:17	And the woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, Well did you say, I have no husband.
4:18	For you have had five husbands, and now he whom you have is not your husband. You have spoken this truly.
4:19	The woman said to Him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
4:20	Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where it is necessary to worship.
4:21	Jesus said to her, Woman, believe Me that an hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
4:22	You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is of the Jews.
4:23	But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeks such ones that worship Him.
4:24	God is a spirit, and the ones worshiping Him must worship in spirit and truth.
4:25	The woman said to Him, I know that Messiah is coming, the One called Christ. When that One comes, He will announce to us all things.
4:26	Jesus said to her, I AM, the One speaking to you.
4:27	And on this, His disciples came and marveled that He was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, What do you seek? Or, Why do You speak with her?
4:28	Then the woman left her waterpot and went away into the city and said to the men,
4:29	Come, see a Man who told me all things, whatever I did. Is this One not the Christ?
4:30	Therefore, they went out of the city and came to Him.
4:31	But in the meantime the disciples asked Him, saying, Rabbi, eat?
4:32	But He said to them, I have food to eat which you do not know.
4:33	Then the disciples said to one another, No one brought Him food to eat?
4:34	Jesus said to them, My food is that I should do the will of Him who sent Me, and that I may finish His work.
4:35	Do you do not say, It is yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest.
4:36	And the one reaping receives reward, and gathers fruit to everlasting life, so that both the one sowing and the one reaping may rejoice together.
4:37	For in this the word is true, that another is the one sowing, and another the one reaping.
4:38	I sent you to reap what you have not labored over. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.
4:39	And many of the Samaritans out of that city believed into Him, because of the word of the woman testifying, He told me all things, whatever I did.
4:40	Then as the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to remain with them. And He remained there two days.
4:41	And many more believed through His word.
4:42	And they said to the woman, We no longer believe because of your saying; for we ourselves have heard, and we know that this One is truly the Savior of the world, the Christ.
4:43	But after the two days, He went out from there, and went away into Galilee.
4:44	For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own native place.
4:45	Therefore, when He came into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, seeing all things which He did in Jerusalem at the Feast. For they also went to the Feast.
4:46	Then Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick in Capernaum.
4:47	Hearing that Jesus was coming from Judea into Galilee, this one went out to Him and asked Him that He would come and heal his son, for he was about to die.
4:48	Then Jesus said to him, Unless you see signs and wonders, you will not at all believe.
4:49	The nobleman said to Him, Sir, come down before my child dies.
4:50	Jesus said to him, Go! Your son lives. And the man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went away.
4:51	But already, as he was going down, his slaves met him and reported, saying, Your child lives.
4:52	He then asked from them the hour in which he had gotten better. And they said to him, Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.
4:53	Then the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives. And he himself, and his whole household, believed.
4:54	Again, this second miracle Jesus did, coming from Judea into Galilee.
