15The woman did not understand that Jesus was speaking figuratively about something that would sustain her spiritually. So she said to him, “Sir, give me that kind of water so that I will not get thirsty again, and so that I will not have to keep returning here to get water!”
16Jesus knew that she did not understand, but he wanted to show her by his God-given knowledge of her personal life that because he was the Messiah he could supply her spiritual need. So he said to her, “Woman, go and call your husband, and bring him here!”
17She replied, “I do not have a husband!” Jesus said to her, “You said that you do not have a husband, and that is true.
18It is also true that you have had five husbands one by one. And the man you are living with now is not your husband! What you have said is very true.”
19The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you must be a prophet because you are able to know people's secrets.
20But let me ask you a different question: Our ancestors worshipped God here on Gerizim mountain, but you Jews say that Jerusalem is the place where we must worship God. So who is right?”
