For Jews have nothing to do with Samaritans. Jesus answered, "If you knew what God has to give, and who it is that said to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water." She said to him, "You have nothing to draw water with, sir, and the well is deep. Where can you get your living water? Are you a greater man than our forefather Jacob, who gave us this well, and drank from it himself, with his sons and his flocks?" Jesus answered, "Anyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but anyone who drinks the water that I will give him will never be thirsty, but the water that I will give him will become a spring of water within him, bubbling up for eternal life."

The woman answered, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You are right when you say you have no husband, for you have had five husbands and the man you are now living with is not your husband. What you say is true." The woman said to him, "I see that you are a prophet, sir. Our forefathers worshiped God on this mountain, and yet you Jews say that the place where people must worship God is at Jerusalem." Jesus said to her, "Believe me, the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor at Jerusalem. You worship something you know nothing about; we know what we worship, for salvation comes from the Jews. But a time is coming??t is already here!??hen the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and sincerity, for the Father wants such worshipers. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship him in spirit and in sincerity." The woman said to him, "I know that the Messiah is coming??e who is called the Christ. When he comes, he will tell us everything!" Jesus said to her, "I who am talking to you am he!"

The people went out of the town to see him. Meanwhile the disciples urged him, saying, "Master, eat something." But he said to them, "I have food to eat of which you do not know." So the disciples said to one another, "Do you suppose that someone has brought him something to eat?" Jesus said to them, "My food is doing the will of him who has sent me, and finishing his work. Are you not saying, 'Four months more and the harvest will come'? Look, I tell you! Raise your eyes and see the fields, for they are white for harvesting. The reaper is already being paid and gathering the harvest for eternal life, so that the sower may be glad with the reaper. For here the saying holds good, 'One sows, another reaps.' I have sent you to reap a harvest on which you have not worked. Other men have worked and you have profited by their work." Many of the Samaritans in that town came to believe in him because of the testimony the woman gave when she said, "He has told me everything I ever did!" So when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they asked him to stay with them, and he did stay there two days.

But when Simon saw that the holy Spirit was imparted through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money, saying, "Give me also this power to communicate the holy Spirit to anyone I place my hands upon." But Peter said to him, "Go to destruction with your money, for thinking you could buy God's gift with it! You have no share or part in this movement, for your heart is not honest in the sight of God. So repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord, to see if you may not be forgiven for thinking of such a thing. For I see that you are a bitter poison and a bundle of iniquity!" Simon answered, "You must pray to the Lord for me, that none of the things you have said may happen to me!" After they had given their testimony and delivered the Lord's message, they went back to Jerusalem, telling the good news in many Samaritan villages on the way.
