John 4:1-7 ▼

1 When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John

2 (although it was not Jesus who baptized, but His disciples),

3 He left Judea and returned to Galilee.

4 Now He had to pass through Samaria.

5 So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

6 Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

7 When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”
