John 4:2-11

²(though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples,)

³he left Judaea, and went again to Galilee.

⁴And he must necessarily pass through Samaria.

⁵He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the piece of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

⁶And Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with the journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

⁷There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.

⁸For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

⁹The Samaritan woman saith to him, How is it that thou, who art a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

¹⁰Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

¹¹The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Whence hast thou the living water?
