The King James Version Bible

John 4:10-22

  1. 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.

  2. 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?

  3. Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

  4. Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

  5. 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.

  6. The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

  7. Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

  8. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:

  9. For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.

  10. The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

  11. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

  12. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

  13. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
