John 4:15-29 in English

¹⁵ The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:

¹⁸ for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said 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 neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.

²² Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.

²⁴ God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

²⁵ The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (he that is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

²⁷ And upon this came his disciples; and they marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

²⁸ So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the people,

²⁹ Come, see a man, who told me all things that ever I did: can this be the Christ?

¹⁵ The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming all the way here to draw water.”

¹⁶ Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus told her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband,’

¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one you have now isn’t your husband. What you have said is quite true.”

¹⁹ The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.

²⁰ Our ancestors worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”

²¹ Jesus told her, “Woman, believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem.

²² You Samaritans worship what you don’t know. We worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ A time is coming, and has now come, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers that the Father seeks.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to Him, “I know that the Messiah (who is called Christ) is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”

²⁶ Jesus told her, “I who speak to you am He.”

²⁷ Just then Jesus’ disciples returned. They were surprised to find him talking with a woman, but no one asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”

²⁸ Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and began telling the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

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?

¹⁵ The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:

¹⁸ for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said 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 neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.

²² Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know: for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.

²⁴ God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

²⁵ The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (which is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

²⁷ And upon this came his disciples; and they marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

²⁸ So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,

²⁹ Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: can this be the Christ?

¹⁵ The 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!”

¹⁶ Jesus 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!”

¹⁷ She replied, “I do not have a husband!” Jesus said to her, “You said that you do not have a husband, and that is true.

¹⁸ It 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.”

¹⁹ The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you must be a prophet because you are able to know people's secrets.

²⁰ But 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?”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me when I say that there will be a time when it will not matter whether you worship God our Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem or somewhere else.

²² You people from Samaria do not know the one you are worshipping. But we (exc) Jews know whom we worship, because it is from us Jews that God has sent the one who will save people from the guilt of their sins.

²³ However, there will be a time when those who genuinely worship God will worship him as God's Spirit directs and according to God's truth. In fact, that time is now. Those are the kind of worshipers my Father seeks.

²⁴ God is a spiritual being. So it is necessary that those who worship him must worship him as his Spirit directs and according to God's truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming. When he comes, he will tell us everything we need to know.” ('Messiah❜ and ❛Christ❜ both mean ❛God's promised king❜.)

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you, am the Messiah!”

²⁷ Just then we disciples returned from town. Since it was contrary to our custom for Jewish religious teachers to converse with a woman they did not know, we were surprised that he was talking to a woman. However, none of us asked her, “What do you want?” and none of us asked him, “Why are you talking with her?”

²⁸ The woman left her water jar there and went into the town. She said to the people there,

²⁹ “Come and see a man who was able to tell me all about my past life HYP, even though I never met him before Could this man be the Messiah?”

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.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷ Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

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.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷ Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

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 worshipped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷ Just then, his disciples came. They marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

¹⁵ The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.

¹⁷ In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:

¹⁸ You have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband: that was truly said.

¹⁹ The woman said to him, Sir, I see that you are a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers gave worship on this mountain, but you Jews say that the right place for worship is in Jerusalem.

²¹ Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.

²² You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.

²³ But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.

²⁴ God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.

²⁵ The woman said to him, I am certain that the Messiah, who is named Christ, is coming; when he comes he will make all things clear to us.

²⁶ Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.

²⁷ At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?

²⁸ Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,

²⁹ Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?

¹⁵ The woman says to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst nor come here to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus says to her, Go, call thy husband, and come here.

¹⁷ The woman answered and said, I have not a husband. Jesus says to her, Thou hast well said, I have not a husband;

¹⁸ for thou hast had five husbands, and he whom now thou hast is not thy husband: this thou hast spoken truly.

¹⁹ The woman says to him, Sir, I see that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.

²¹ Jesus says to her, Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when ye shall neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem worship the Father.

²² Ye worship ye know not what; we worship what we know, for salvation is of the Jews.

²³ But the hour is coming and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeks such as his worshippers.

²⁴ God is a spirit; and they who worship him must worship him in spirit and truth.

²⁵ The woman says to him, I know that Messias is coming, who is called Christ; when he comes he will tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus says to her, I who speak to thee am he.

²⁷ And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he spoke with a woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

²⁸ The woman then left her waterpot and went away into the city, and says to the men,

²⁹ Come, see a man who told me all things I had ever done: is not he the Christ?

¹⁵ The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered, and said: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast said well, I have no husband:

¹⁸ For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. This thou hast said truly.

¹⁹ The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers adored on this mountain, and you say, that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore.

²¹ Jesus saith to her: Woman, believe me, that the hour cometh, when you shall neither on this mountain, not in Jerusalem, adore the Father.

²² You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.

²³ But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeketh such to adore him.

²⁴ God is a spirit; and they that adore him, must adore him in spirit and in truth.

²⁵ The woman saith to him: I know that the Messias cometh (who is called Christ). Therefore, when he is come, he will tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith to her: I am he, who am speaking with thee.

²⁷ And immediately his disciples came; and they wondered that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What seekest thou? or, why talkest thou with her?

²⁸ The woman therefore left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men there:

²⁹ Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ?

¹⁵ The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You have said well, ‘I have no husband,’

¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in this you have said truly.”

¹⁹ The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where it is necessary to worship.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

²² You worship what you do not know; we Jews worship what we know, because salvation is of the Jews.

²³ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

²⁴ God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will proclaim to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am He, the One speaking to you.”

²⁷ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He was speaking with a woman; however no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why are You speaking with her?”

²⁸ The woman then left her water jar, went her way into the city, and said to the men,

²⁹ “Come, see a Man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

¹⁵ The woman says to Him, “Sir, give me this water! so that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”

¹⁶ Jesus says to her, “Go, call your husband and come back here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered and said, “I don't have a husband.” Jesus says to her: “You stated correctly that you do not have a husband,

¹⁸ because you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is no husband of yours. You spoke the truth there!”

¹⁹ The woman says to Him: “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, while you (pl) say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”

²¹ Jesus says to her: “Woman, believe me, a time is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

²² You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we Jews worship what we do know, because the salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the time is coming, in fact now is, when the genuine worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. Really, because the Father is looking for such people to worship Him.

²⁴ God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman says to Him: “I know that Messiah is coming (who is called Christ). When He comes He will explain everything to us.”

²⁶ Jesus says to her, “I am He, the one who is talking with you!”

²⁷ At that point His disciples arrived, and they were amazed that He was talking with a woman; yet no one said, “What do you want?” or “Why are You talking with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water jar, went her way into the town, and says to the men:

²⁹ “Come see a man who told me everything I ever did! Could this be the Messiah?”

¹⁵ “Sir,” replied the woman, “Please give me this water so I won't be thirsty, and I won't have to come here to fetch water!”

¹⁶ “Go and call your husband, and come back here,” Jesus told her.

¹⁷ “I don't have a husband,” the woman answered. “You're right in saying you don't have a husband,” Jesus told her.

¹⁸ “You've had five husbands, and the one you're living with now is not your husband. So what you say is true!”

¹⁹ “I can see you're a prophet, sir,” the woman replied.

²⁰ “Tell me this: our ancestors worshiped here on this mountain, but you say that Jerusalem is where we must worship.”

²¹ Jesus replied, “Believe me the time is coming when you won't worship the Father either on this mountain or in Jerusalem.

²² You really don't know the God you're worshiping, while we worship the God we know, for salvation comes from the Jews.

²³ But the time is coming—and in fact it's here already—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for these are the kind of worshipers the Father wants.

²⁴ God is Spirit, so worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

²⁵ The woman said, “Well, I know that the Messiah is coming,” (the one who is called Christ). “When he comes he will explain it all to us.”

²⁶ Jesus replied, “I AM—the one who is speaking to you.”

²⁷ Just then the disciples returned. They were shocked that he was talking to a woman, but none of them asked “What are you doing?” or “Why are you talking with her?”

²⁸ The woman left her water jar behind and ran back to the town, telling the people,

²⁹ “Come and meet a man who told me everything I ever did! Could this be the Messiah?”

¹⁵ The woman said vnto him, Syr, giue me of that water, that I may not thirst, neither come hither to drawe.

¹⁶ Iesus said vnto her, Go, call thine husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered, and saide, I haue no husband. Iesus said vnto her, Thou hast well said, I haue no husband.

¹⁸ For thou hast had fiue husbands, and he whom thou nowe hast, is not thine husband: that saidest thou truely.

¹⁹ The woman saide vnto him, Sir, I see that thou art a Prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshipped in this mountaine, and ye say, that in Ierusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

²¹ Iesus saide vnto her, Woman, beleeue me, the houre commeth, when ye shall neither in this mountaine, nor at Hierusalem worship ye Father.

²² Ye worship that which ye knowe not: we worship that which we knowe: for saluation is of the Iewes.

²³ But the houre commeth, and nowe is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit, and trueth: for the Father requireth euen such to worship him.

²⁴ God is a Spirite, and they that worship him, must worship him in spirit and trueth.

²⁵ The woman said vnto him, I knowe well that Messias shall come which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell vs all things.

²⁶ Iesus said vnto her, I am he, that speake vnto thee.

²⁷ And vpon that, came his disciples, and marueiled that he talked with a woman: yet no man said vnto him, What askest thou? or why talkest thou with her?

²⁸ The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the citie, and said to the men,

²⁹ Come, see a man which hath tolde me all things that euer I did: is not he that Christ?

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?

¹⁵ The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.

¹⁶ He saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidst well, that thou hast no husband.

¹⁸ For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband; in this thou hast spoken truly.

¹⁹ The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

²¹ Jesus saith to her, Believe me, woman, the hour is coming, when ye shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

²² Ye worship that which ye know not; we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for such worshippers the Father seeketh.

²⁴ God is a spirit; and they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth.

²⁵ The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh (who is called Christ); when he hath come, he will tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith to her, I who speak to thee am he.

²⁷ And upon this his disciples came, and marveled that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?

²⁸ The woman then left her water-pot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,

²⁹ Come, see a man who told me all things which I have done. Is this the Christ?

¹⁵ “Give me this water, Sir,” said the woman, “so that I may not be thirsty, nor have to come all the way here to draw water.”

¹⁶ “Go and call your husband,” said Jesus, “and then come back.”

¹⁷ “I have no husband,” answered the woman. “You are right in saying ‘I have no husband,’” replied Jesus,

¹⁸ “For you have had five husbands, and the man with whom you are now living is not your husband; in saying that, you have spoken the truth.”

¹⁹ “I see, Sir, that you are a prophet!” exclaimed the woman.

²⁰ “It was on this mountain that our ancestors worshipped; and yet you Jews say that the proper place for worship is in Jerusalem.”

²¹ “Believe me,” replied Jesus, “a time is coming when it will be neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem that you will worship the Father.

²² You Samaritans do not know what you worship; we know what we worship, for salvation comes from the Jews.

²³ But a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the true worshippers will worship the Father spiritually and truly; for such are the worshippers that the Father desires.

²⁴ God is Spirit; and those who worship him must worship spiritually and truly.”

²⁵ “I know,” answered the woman, “that the Messiah, who is called the Christ, is coming; when once he has come, he will tell us everything.”

²⁶ “I am he,” Jesus said to her, “I who am speaking to you.”

²⁷ At this moment his disciples came up, and were surprised to find him talking with a woman; but none of them asked ‘What do you want?’ or ‘Why are you talking with her?’

²⁸ So the woman, leaving her pitcher, went back to the town, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?”

¹⁵ “Give me this water, Sir,” said the woman, “so that I may not be thirsty, nor have to come all the way here to draw water.”

¹⁶ “Go and call your husband,” said Jesus, “and then come back.”

¹⁷ “I have no husband,” answered the woman. “You are right in saying ‘I have no husband,’” replied Jesus,

¹⁸ “For you have had five husbands, and the man with whom you are now living is not your husband; in saying that, you have spoken the truth.”

¹⁹ “I see, Sir, that you are a prophet!” exclaimed the woman.

²⁰ “It was on this mountain that our ancestors worshiped; and yet you Jews say that the proper place for worship is in Jerusalem.”

²¹ “Believe me,” replied Jesus, “a time is coming when it will be neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem that you will worship the Father.

²² You Samaritans do not know what you worship; we know what we worship, for salvation comes from the Jews.

²³ But a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father spiritually and truly; for such are the worshipers that the Father desires.

²⁴ God is Spirit; and those who worship him must worship spiritually and truly.”

²⁵ “I know,” answered the woman, “that the Messiah, who is called the Christ, is coming; when once he has come, he will tell us everything.”

²⁶ “I am he,” Jesus said to her, “I who am speaking to you.”

²⁷ At this moment his disciples came up, and were surprised to find him talking with a woman; but none of them asked ‘What do you want?’ or ‘Why are you talking with her?’

²⁸ So the woman, leaving her pitcher, went back to the town, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?”

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 Yeshua Salvation said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Yeshua Salvation 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 Praisers say that in Jerusalem City of peace is the place where people ought to worship.”

²¹ Yeshua Salvation said to her, “Woman, believe me, the time will come, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem City of peace, will you worship Abba Father.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for yishu'ah ·salvation· is from the Jews Praisers.

²³ But the time will come, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship Abba Father in spirit and truth, for Abba Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah Anointed one comes, he who is called Messiah Anointed one. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Yeshua Salvation said to her, “Ena Na I AM (the Living God), I who is speaking to you.”

²⁷ At this, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Messiah Anointed one?”

¹⁵ The woman sayd vnto him: Syr geve me of that water that I thyrst not nether come hedder to drawe.

¹⁶ Iesus sayde vnto her. Go and call thy husband and come hydder.

¹⁷ The woman answered and sayde to him: I have no husband. Iesus sayde to her. Thou hast well sayd I have no husbande.

¹⁸ For thou haste had five husbandes and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband. That saydest thou truely.

¹⁹ The woman sayde vnto him: Syr I perceave that thou arte a prophet.

²⁰ Oure fathers worshipped in this mountayne: and ye saye that in Hierusalem is the place where men ought to worshippe.

²¹ Iesus sayde vnto her: woman beleve me the houre cometh when ye shall nether in this moutayne nor yet at Ierusalem worshippe the father.

²² Ye worshippe ye wot not what: we knowe what we worshippe. For salvacion cometh of the Iewes.

²³ But the houre commeth and nowe is when the true worshippers shall worshippe the father in sprete and in trouthe. For verely suche the father requyreth to worshippe him.

²⁴ God is a sprete and they that worshippe him must worshippe him in sprete and trouthe.

²⁵ The woman sayde vnto him: I wot well Messias shall come which is called Christ. When he is come he will tell vs all thinges.

²⁶ Iesus sayde vnto hir: I that speake vnto the am he.

²⁷ And even at that poynte came his disciples and marvelled that he talked with the woman. Yet no man sayde vnto him: what meanest thou or why talkest thou with her?

²⁸ The woman then lefte her waterpot and went her waye into the cite and sayde to the men.

²⁹ Come se a man which tolde me all thinges that ever I dyd. Is not he Christ?

¹⁵ The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I may not become thirsty and not have to come here to draw water.”

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come back here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered and said to him, “I do not have a husband.” Jesus replied, “You are right in saying, 'I have no husband,'

¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.”

¹⁹ The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that you are a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that Jerusalem is the place where people have to worship.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Believe me, woman, that an hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

²² You worship what you do not know. We worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ However, the hour is coming, and is now here, when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to be his worshipers.

²⁴ God is Spirit, and the people who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming (the one called Christ). When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one speaking to you.”

²⁷ At that moment his disciples returned. Now they were wondering why he was speaking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you want?” or “Why are you speaking with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went back to the town, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have ever done. This could not be the Christ, could it?”

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.”

²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷ Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

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.”

²⁵ The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷ Just then, his disciples came. They marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

¹⁵ The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, neither come hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to 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 thou hast spoken truth.

¹⁹ The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

²¹ Jesus saith to 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 from the Jews.

²³ But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers 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 to him, I know that Messiah cometh, who is called Christ; when he is come, he will tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith to her, I that speak to thee am he .

²⁷ And upon this came his disciples, and marveled 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 into the city, and saith to the men,

²⁹ Come, see a man who hath told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

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 Yeshua said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

¹⁷ The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Yeshua 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.

²⁸ So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹ “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Messiah?”

¹⁵ The woman saith to him, Sire, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her, Go, call thine husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered, and said, I have none husband or I have not an husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidest well, That I have none husband or I have not an husband;

¹⁸ for thou hast had five husbands, and he that thou hast now, is not thine husband. This thing thou saidest soothly.

¹⁹ The woman saith to him, Lord, I see, that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshipped in this hill, and ye say, that at Jerusalem is a place, where it behooveth to worship.

²¹ Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe thou to me, for the hour shall come, when neither in this hill, neither in Jerusalem, ye shall worship the Father.

²² Ye worship that that ye know not; we worship that that we know; for health is of the Jews.

²³ But the time is come, and now it is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeketh such, that worship him.

²⁴ God is a Spirit, and it behooveth them that worship him, to worship in spirit and truth.

²⁵ The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah is come, that is said Christ; therefore when he cometh, he shall tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith to her, I am he or I am, that speaketh with thee.

²⁷ And anon his disciples came, and wondered, that he spake with the woman; nevertheless no man said to him, What seekest thou, or, What speakest thou with her?

²⁸ Therefore the woman left her water pot, and went into the city, and said to the men,

²⁹ Come ye, and see a man, that said to me all things that I have done; whether he be Christ?

¹⁵ The woman saith to him, Sire (or Sir), give me this water, (so) that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her, Go, call thine husband, and come hither.

¹⁷ The woman answered, and said, I have none husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidest well, That I have none husband; The woman answered, and said, I have not an husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidest well, For I have not an husband;

¹⁸ for thou hast had five husbands, and he that thou hast now, is not thine husband. This thing thou saidest soothly (or Thou hast spoken truthfully).

¹⁹ The woman saith to him, Lord, I see, that thou art a prophet.

²⁰ Our fathers worshipped in this hill, and ye (Jews) say, that at Jerusalem is a place, where it behooveth (all) to worship.

²¹ Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe thou to me, for the hour shall come, when neither in this hill, neither in Jerusalem, ye shall worship the Father.

²² Ye worship that that ye know not; we worship that that we know; for health is of the Jews, (or for salvation is from the Jews, or salvation cometh from the Jews).

²³ But the time is come, and now it is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeketh such, that worship him.

²⁴ God is a Spirit, and it behooveth them that worship him, to worship in spirit and truth.

²⁵ The woman saith to him, I know that Messias is (to) come, that is said Christ, (or I know that the Messiah is to come, who is called Christ); therefore when he cometh, he shall tell us all things.

²⁶ Jesus saith to her, I am he or I am, that speaketh with thee.

²⁷ And anon his disciples came, and wondered, that he spake with the woman; nevertheless no man said to him, What seekest thou, or, What speakest thou with her? (And at once his disciples came back, and were surprised, that he spoke with the woman; nevertheless no one said to him, Why speakest thou with her?)

²⁸ Therefore the woman left her water pot, and went into the city, and said to the men,

²⁹ Come ye, and see a man, that said to me all things that I have done; whether he be Christ? (or could he be the Messiah?)

¹⁵ The womman seith to hym, Sire, yyue me this watir, that Y thirste not, nether come hidur to drawe.

¹⁶ Jhesus seith to hir, Go, clepe thin hosebonde, and come hidir.

¹⁷ The womman answerde, and seide, Y haue noon hosebonde. Jhesus seith to hir, Thou seidist wel, That Y haue noon hosebonde;

¹⁸ for thou hast hadde fyue hosebondis, and he that thou hast, is not thin hosebonde. This thing thou seidist sotheli.

¹⁹ The womman seith to hym, Lord, Y se, that thou art a prophete.

²⁰ Oure fadris worschipiden in this hil, and ye seien, that at Jerusalem is a place, where it bihoueth to worschipe.

²¹ Jhesus seith to hir, Womman, bileue thou to me, for the our schal come, whanne nether in this hil, nethir in Jerusalem, ye schulen worschipe the fadir.

²² Ye worschipen that ye knowen not; we worschipen that that we knowen; for helthe is of the Jewis.

²³ But the tyme is comun, and now it is, whanne trewe worschiperis schulen worschipe the fadir in spirit and treuthe; for also the fadir sekith suche, that worschipen hym.

²⁴ God is a spirit, and it bihoueth hem that worschipen hym, to worschipe in spirit and treuthe.

²⁵ The womman seith to hym, Y woot that Messias is comun, that is seid Crist; therfor whanne he cometh, he schal telle vs alle thingis.

²⁶ Jhesus seith to hir, Y am he, that spekith with thee.

²⁷ And anoon hise disciplis camen, and wondriden, that he spak with the womman; netheles no man seide to hym, What sekist thou, or, What spekist thou with hir?

²⁸ Therfor the womman lefte hir watir pot, and wente in to the citee, and seide to tho men,

²⁹ Come ye, and se ye a man, that seide to me alle thingis that Y haue don; whether he be Crist?

¹⁵ The woman saith unto him, 'Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.'

¹⁶ Jesus saith to her, 'Go, call thy husband, and come hither;'

¹⁷ the woman answered and said, 'I have not a husband.' Jesus saith to her, 'Well didst thou say — A husband I have not;

¹⁸ for five husbands thou hast had, and, now, he whom thou hast is not thy husband; this hast thou said truly.'

¹⁹ The woman saith to him, 'Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet;

²⁰ our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye — ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.'

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;

²² ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;

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;

²⁴ God is a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'

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;'

²⁶ Jesus saith to her, 'I am he, who am speaking to thee.'

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?'

²⁸ The woman then left her water-jug, and went away to the city, and saith to the men,

²⁹ 'Come, see a man, who told me all things — as many as I did; is this the Christ?'
