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 Galileans 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 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.
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.
