4John 4

1When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,Select John 4:1

2(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)Select John 4:2

3He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.Select John 4:3

4And he must needs go through Samaria.Select John 4:4

5Then he cometh to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground, that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.Select John 4:5

6Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore being wearied with [his] journey, sat thus on the well: [and] it was about the sixth hour.Select John 4:6

7There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.Select John 4:7

8(For his disciples had gone to the city to buy provisions.)Select John 4:8

9Then saith the woman of Samaria to him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.Select John 4:9

10Jesus answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.Select John 4:10

11The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?Select John 4:11

12Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?Select John 4:12

13Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again:Select John 4:13

14But whoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him, shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him, shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.Select John 4:14

15The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, neither come hither to draw.Select John 4:15

16Jesus saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.Select John 4:16

17The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:Select John 4:17

18For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: in that thou hast spoken truth.Select John 4:18

19The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.Select John 4:19

20Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.Select John 4:20

21Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.Select John 4:21

22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship, for salvation is from the Jews.Select John 4:22

23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.Select John 4:23

24God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him, must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.Select John 4:24

25The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh, who is called Christ; when he is come, he will tell us all things.Select John 4:25

26Jesus saith to her, I that speak to thee am [he].Select John 4:26

27And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?Select John 4:27

28The woman then left her waterpot, and went into the city, and saith to the men,Select John 4:28

29Come, see a man who hath told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?Select John 4:29

30Then they went out of the city, and came to him.Select John 4:30

31In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.Select John 4:31

32But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.Select John 4:32

33Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?Select John 4:33

34Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.Select John 4:34

35Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.Select John 4:35

36And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit to life eternal: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may rejoice together.Select John 4:36

37And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.Select John 4:37

38I sent you to reap that on which ye bestowed no labor: other men labored, and ye have entered into their labors.Select John 4:38

39And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, who testified, He told me all that ever I did.Select John 4:39

40So when the Samaritans had come to him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.Select John 4:40

41And many more believed, because of his own word;Select John 4:41

42And said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard [him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.Select John 4:42

43Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.Select John 4:43

44For Jesus himself testified that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.Select John 4:44

45Then when he had come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.Select John 4:45

46So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.Select John 4:46

47When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.Select John 4:47

48Then said Jesus to him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.Select John 4:48

49The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down ere my child dieth.Select John 4:49

50Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken to him, and he departed.Select John 4:50

51And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told [him], saying, Thy son liveth.Select John 4:51

52Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend: and they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.Select John 4:52

53So the father knew that [it was] at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth: and he himself believed, and his whole house.Select John 4:53

54This [is] again the second miracle [that] Jesus performed, when he had come from Judea into Galilee.Select John 4:54
