John 4:1-10 ▼

1 Thus when the Lord knew when the Pharisees heard that Jesus is making and baptizing more disciples than John

2 (truly Jesus himself was not baptizing, but His disciples),

3 He left Judea and came again into Galilee.

4 And it behooved Him to go through Samaria.

5 Then He comes into a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the place which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 And the well of Jacob was there. Then Jesus having become weary from the journey, was sitting thus by the well: it was about the sixth hour.

7 A woman comes from Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, Give me to drink.

8 For His disciples had gone into the city, that they might purchase food.

9 A Samaritan woman says to Him, How do you, being a Jew, ask to drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?

10 And Jesus responded and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and the one who is speaking to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.
