Jesus answered and said unto her, "If thou knowest the gift of God, and who it is, that sayeth to thee, 'Give me drink': thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee water of life." The woman said unto him, "Sir, thou hast no thing to draw it withal, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that water of life? Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and he himself drank thereof and his children and his cattle?" Jesus answered and said unto her, "Whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again. But whosoever shall drink of the water that I shall give him, shall never be more a thirst: But the water that I shall give him, shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life." The woman said unto him, "Sir, give me of that water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw." Jesus said unto her, "Go and call thy husband, and come hither." The woman answered, and said to him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "Thou hast well said, 'I have no husband.' For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. That saidst thou truly." The woman said unto him, "Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain: and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship." Jesus said unto her, "Woman, believe me; The hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship. For salvation cometh of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the father in spirit, and in truth. For verily, such the father requireth to worship him. God is a spirit, and they that worship him, must worship him in spirit, and truth." The woman said unto him, "I know well Messiah shall come, which is called Christ. When he is once come, he will tell us all things." Jesus said unto her, "I that speak unto thee, am he." And even at that point, came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said unto him, "What meanest thou," or "Why talkest thou with her?" The woman then left her water pot behind her, and went her way into the city, and said to the men there, "Come, see a man which told me all things that ever I did. Is not he Christ?" Then they went out of the city, and came unto him. And in the meanwhile his disciples prayed him, saying, "Master, eat." He said unto them, "I have meat to eat, that ye know not of." Then said the disciples between themselves, "Hath any man brought him meat?" Jesus said unto them, "My meat is to do the will of him that sent me. And to finish his work. Say not ye, 'There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest?' Behold, I say unto you, lift up your eyes, and look on the regions: For they are white already unto harvest. And he that reapeth, receiveth reward; and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: That both he that soweth and he that reapeth might rejoice together. And herein is the saying true, That one soweth; And another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labor. Other men laboured; And ye are entered into their labors." Many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, for the woman's saying: which testified, "He told me all things that ever I did." Then, when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them. And he abode there two days. And many more believed because of his own words, and said unto the woman, "Now we believe not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is even indeed Christ, the saviour of the world."
