JHN 4:1
John 4:1
|
|
When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees
had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John, |
|
|
|
JHN 4:2
John 4:2
|
|
(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his
disciples,) |
|
|
|
JHN 4:3
John 4:3
|
|
He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:4
John 4:4
|
|
And he must needs go through Samaria. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:5
John 4:5
|
|
Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is
called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:6
John 4:6
|
|
Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore,
being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth
hour. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:7
John 4:7
|
|
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water:
Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:8
John 4:8
|
|
(For his disciples were gone away unto the
city to buy meat.) |
|
|
|
JHN 4:9
John 4:9
|
|
Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How
is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria?
for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:10
John 4:10
|
|
Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest
the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest
have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:11
John 4:11
|
|
The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing
to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water? |
|
|
|
JHN 4:12
John 4:12
|
|
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which
gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? |
|
|
|
JHN 4:13
John 4:13
|
|
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever
drinketh of this water shall thirst again: |
|
|
|
JHN 4:14
John 4:14
|
|
But whosoever 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. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:15
John 4:15
|
|
The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this
water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:16
John 4:16
|
|
Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband,
and come hither. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:17
John 4:17
|
|
The woman answered and said, I have no husband.
Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: |
|
|
|
JHN 4:18
John 4:18
|
|
For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom
thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:19
John 4:19
|
|
The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that
thou art a prophet. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:20
John 4:20
|
|
Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and
ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:21
John 4:21
|
|
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the
hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship
the Father. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:22
John 4:22
|
|
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we
worship: for salvation is of the Jews. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:23
John 4:23
|
|
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true
worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh
such to worship him. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:24
John 4:24
|
|
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must
worship him in spirit and in truth. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:25
John 4:25
|
|
The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias
cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:26
John 4:26
|
|
Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee
am he. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:27
John 4:27
|
|
And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled
that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest
thou with her? |
|
|
|
JHN 4:28
John 4:28
|
|
The woman then left her waterpot, and went her
way into the city, and saith to the men, |
|
|
|
JHN 4:29
John 4:29
|
|
Come, see a man, which told me all things that
ever I did: is not this the Christ? |
|
|
|
JHN 4:30
John 4:30
|
|
Then they went out of the city, and came unto
him. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:31
John 4:31
|
|
In the mean while his disciples prayed him,
saying, Master, eat. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:32
John 4:32
|
|
But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that
ye know not of. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:33
John 4:33
|
|
Therefore said the disciples one to another,
Hath any man brought him ought to eat? |
|
|
|
JHN 4:34
John 4:34
|
|
Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the
will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:35
John 4:35
|
|
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 fields;
for they are white already to harvest. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:36
John 4:36
|
|
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth
fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice
together. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:37
John 4:37
|
|
And herein is that saying true, One soweth,
and another reapeth. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:38
John 4:38
|
|
I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed
no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:39
John 4:39
|
|
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed
on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever
I did. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:40
John 4:40
|
|
So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they
besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:41
John 4:41
|
|
And many more believed because of his own word; |
|
|
|
JHN 4:42
John 4:42
|
|
And said unto 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 Saviour of the world. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:43
John 4:43
|
|
Now after two days he departed thence, and went
into Galilee. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:44
John 4:44
|
|
For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet
hath no honour in his own country. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:45
John 4:45
|
|
Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans
received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast:
for they also went unto the feast. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:46
John 4:46
|
|
So 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. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:47
John 4:47
|
|
When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea
into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and
heal his son: for he was at the point of death. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:48
John 4:48
|
|
Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs
and wonders, ye will not believe. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:49
John 4:49
|
|
The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down
ere my child die. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:50
John 4:50
|
|
Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth.
And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his
way. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:51
John 4:51
|
|
And as he was now going down, his servants met
him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:52
John 4:52
|
|
Then enquired he of them the hour when he began
to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left
him. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:53
John 4:53
|
|
So the father knew that it was at the same hour,
in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his
whole house. |
|
|
|
JHN 4:54
John 4:54
|
|
This is again the second miracle that Jesus
did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee. |
|
