John 4:9-23
-
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.
-
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.
-
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?
-
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
-
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
-
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.
-
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
-
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
-
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
-
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
-
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
-
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
-
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.
-
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
-
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.
