2(although Jesus Himself was not baptizing, but His disciples),
3He left Judea and went away into Galilee.
4Now He needed to go through Samaria;
5so He comes to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6Now Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, being worn out from the journey, sat as He was by the well. It was about 6 p.m.
7A woman of Samaria comes to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give me a drink.”
8(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9So the Samaritan woman says to Him, “How can you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?” (for Jews do not associate with Samaritans).
