John 4:27-38 - The Disciples And The Harvest

27 And at this time His disciples came, and were wondering because He was speaking with the woman; no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why do you speak with her?

28 Then the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and says to the men, 29 Come hither, see the man who told me all things which I did: Is not He the Christ? 30 They came out from the city, and came to Him.

31 Meanwhile His disciples were asking Him, saying, Master eat.

32 He said to them, I have meat to eat, which you know not.

33 Then His disciples were speaking to one another, Whether has any one brought Him something to eat?

34 Jesus says to them, My food is that I may do the will of Him that sent me, and finish His work. 35 Do you not say, That it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes and see the fields, because they are white unto the harvest 36 already. He that reapeth receiveth reward, and gathereth fruit unto eternal life; in order that both the sower and the reaper may rejoice together. 37 For in this the word is true, that there is one sowing, and another reaping. 38 I have sent you to reap that upon which you have never labored: others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.
