John 4:1-7 ▼

1 Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

3 he left Judea and departed into Galilee.

4 He needed to pass through Samaria.

5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
