1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
3 He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
5 Then came he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
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.
7 There came a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus said unto her,
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy food.)
9 Then said the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her,
11 The woman said unto him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where then have you that living water?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
13 Jesus answered and said unto her,
14 But whosoever drinks 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.
15 The woman said unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come here to draw.
16 Jesus said unto her,
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her,
18 For you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband: that said you truly.
19 The woman said unto him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus said unto her,
22 You worship you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman said unto him, I know that Messiah comes, who is called Christ: when he comes, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus said unto her,
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seek you? or, Why talk you with her?
28 The woman then left her water pot, and went her way into the city, and said to the men,
29 Come, see a man, who told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31 In the meanwhile his disciples besought him, saying, Teacher, eat.
32 But he said unto them,
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, has any man brought him anything to eat?
34 Jesus said unto them,
35 Say not, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit unto life eternal: that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.
37 And in this is that saying true, One sows, and another reaps.
38 I sent you to reap that on which you bestowed no labor: other men labored, and you are entered into their labors.
39 And 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.
40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.
43 Now after two days he departed from there, and went into Galilee.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
45 Then when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain official, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 When he heard that Jesus came out of Judea 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.
48 Then said Jesus unto him,
49 The official said unto him, Sir, come down lest my child die.
50 Jesus said unto him,
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Your son lives.
52 Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in which Jesus said unto him,
54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he came out of Judea into Galilee.
