John 4:24-51

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

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

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

²⁷And 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?

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

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

³⁰Then they went out of the cite and came vnto him.

³¹And in ye meane while his disciples prayed him sayinge: Master eate.

³²He sayde vnto the: I have meate to eate that ye knowe not of.

³³Then sayd the disciples bitwene them selves: hath eny man brought him meate?

³⁴Iesus sayde vnto them: my meate is to doo the will of him that sent me. And to fynnysshe his worke.

³⁵Saye not ye: there are yet foure monethes and then cometh harvest? Beholde I saye vnto you lyfte vp youre eyes and loke on the regions: for they are whyte all redy vnto harvest.

³⁶And he that repeth receaveth rewarde and gaddereth frute vnto life eternall: that bothe he that soweth and he that repeth myght reioyse to gether.

³⁷And herin is the sayinge true that one soweth and another repeth.

³⁸I sent you to repe that wheron ye bestowed no laboure. Other men laboured and ye are entred into their labours.

³⁹Many of the Samaritas of that cyte beleved on him for the sayinge of the woman which testified: he tolde me all thinges that ever I dyd.

⁴⁰Then when the Samaritas were come vnto him they besought him that he wolde tary with the. And he aboode there two dayes.

⁴¹And many moo beleved because of his awne wordes

⁴²and sayd vnto the woman: Now we beleve not because of thy sayinge. For we have herde him oure selves and knowe that this is even in dede Christ the savioure of the worlde.

⁴³After two dayes he departed thence and wet awaye into Galile.

⁴⁴And Iesus him selfe testified that a Prophete hath none honoure in his awne countre.

⁴⁵Then assone as he was come into Galile the Galileans receaved him which had sene all the thinges that he dyd at Ierusalem at the feast. For they wet also vnto the feast daye.

⁴⁶And Iesus came agayne into Cana of Galile wher he turned water into wyne. And ther was a certayne ruler whose sonne was sicke at Capernaum.

⁴⁷Assone as the same herde that Iesus was come out of Iewry into Galile he wet vnto him and besought him that he wolde descende and heale his sonne: For he was even readie to dye.

⁴⁸Then sayde Iesus vnto him: excepte ye se signes and wodres ye cannot beleve.

⁴⁹The ruler sayd vnto him: Syr come awaye or ever that my chylde dye.

⁵⁰Iesus sayde vnto him goo thy waye thy sonne liveth. And the man beleved the wordes that Iesus had spoke vnto him and wet his waye.

⁵¹And anone as he went on his waye his servantes met him and tolde him sayinge: thy chylde liveth.
