Yochanan 4:10-39

¹⁰Yeshua answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”

¹¹The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?

¹²Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”

¹³Yeshua answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

¹⁴but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”

¹⁵The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

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

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

¹⁸for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”

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

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

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

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

²³But 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.

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

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

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

²⁷Just 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?”

²⁸So 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?”

³⁰They went out of the city, and were coming to him.

³¹In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

³²But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

³³The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”

³⁴Yeshua said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.

³⁵Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest?’ Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.

³⁶He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

³⁷For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’

³⁸I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”

³⁹From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”
