John 4:8-22

⁸For his disciples were gone awaye vnto the toune to bye meate.

⁹Then sayde the woman of Samaria vnto him: how is it that thou beinge a Iewe axest drinke of me which am a Samaritane? for the Iewes medle not with the Samaritans.

¹⁰Iesus answered and sayde vnto hir: yf thou knewest the gyfte of God and who it is that sayeth to the geve me drynke thou woldest have axed of him and he wolde have geven the water of lyfe.

¹¹The woman sayde vnto him. Syr thou hast no thinge to drawe with and the well is depe: from whence then hast thou that water of lyfe?

¹²Arte thou greater then oure father Iacob which gave vs the well and he him silfe dranke therof and his chyldren and his catell?

¹³Iesus answered and sayde vnto hir: whosoever drinketh of this water shall thurst agayne.

¹⁴But whosoever shall drinke of the water that I shall geve him shall never be more a thyrst: but the water that I shall geve him shalbe in him a well of water springinge vp in to everlastinge lyfe.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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