1As soon as the Lord had knowledge, how that it was come to the ears of the pharises, that Iesus made and baptised more disciples than Ihon 2(though that Iesus himself baptised not: but his disciples) 3he left jewry, and departed again in to Galile. 4And it was so that he must needs go thorow Samaria. 5Then came he to a city of Samaria called Sichar besides the possession that Iacob gave to his son Ioseph, 6and there was Iacob's well. Iesus then wearied in his journey, sat thus on the well. It was about the sixth hour:

7There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Iesus said unto her: Give me drink. 8(for his disciples were gone away unto the town to buy meat.) 9The woman of Samaria said unto him: how is it, that thou being a iewe askest drink of me, which am a Samaritan? (for the iewes meddle not with the Samaritans.) 10Iesus answered and said unto her: if thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is, that sayeth to thee give me drink: thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee water of life. 11The woman said unto him: Sir thou hast no thing to draw it withall, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that water of life? 12Art thou greater then our father Iacob, which gave us the well, and he himself drank thereof and his children and his cattle? 13Iesus answered and said unto her: whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again. 14But whosoever shall drink of the water that I shall give him, shall never be more a thirst: But the water that I shall give him, shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

15The woman said unto him: Sir give me of that water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. 16Iesus said unto her: Go and call thy husband, and come hither. 17The woman answered and said to him: I have no husband. Iesus said to her: Thou hast well said, I have no husband. 18For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. That saidst thou truly. 19The woman said unto him: Sir I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20Our fathers worshipped in this mountain: and ye say that in Ierusalem is the place where men ought to pray. 21Iesus said unto her: woman trust me, The hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Ierusalem, worship the father. 22Ye worship ye wot nere what: we know what we worship. For salvation cometh of the iewes. 23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the father in spirit, and in verity. For verily such the father requireth to worship him. 24God is a spirit, and they that worship him, must honour him, in spirit and verity. 25The woman said unto him: I wot well Messias shall come, which is called Christ. When he is once come, he will tell us all things. 26Iesus said unto her: I that speak unto thee, am he.

27And even at that point, came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said unto him: what meanest thou, or why talkest thou with her? 28The woman left her water pot behind her, and went her way into the city, and said to the men there: 29Come see a man which told me all things that ever I did. Is not he Christ? 30Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

31In the meanwhile his disciples prayed him saying: Master eat. 32He said unto them: I have meat to eat, that ye know not of. 33Then said the disciples between themselves: hath any man brought him meat? 34Iesus said unto them: My meat is to fulfill the will of him that sent me. And to finish his work. 35Say not ye: There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold I say unto you, lift up your eyes, and look on the regions: For they are white already unto harvest. 36And he that reapeth receiveth reward, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: That both he that soweth, might rejoice also, and he that reapeth. 37And herein is the saying true, that one soweth, And another reapeth. 38I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labor. Other men laboured, And ye are entered into their labors.

39Many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, For the woman's saying, which testified: He told me all things that ever I did. 40Then when the Samaritans were come unto him, They besought him, that he would tarry with them. And he abode there two days. 41And many more believed because of his own words. 42And said unto the woman: Now we believe not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is even indeed Christ the saviour of the world.

43After two days, he departed thence, and went away into Galile. 44And Iesus himself testified, that a prophet hath none honour in his own country. 45Then as soon as he was come into Galile, the Galileans received him which had seen all things, that he did at Ierusalem on the feast. For they went also unto the feast day.

46And Iesus came again into Cana of Galile, where he turned water into wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47As soon as the same heard that Iesus was come out of jewry into Galilee he went unto him, and besought him, that he would descend, and heal his son: For he was even ready to die. 48Then said Iesus unto him: Except ye see signs and wonders, ye believe not. 49The ruler said unto him: Sir come away or ever that my child die. 50Iesus said unto him go thy way, thy son liveth. And the man believed the words that Iesus had spoken unto him, and went his way. 51And anon as he went on his way, his servants met him, and told him, saying: thy child liveth, 52Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him: Yesterday the seventh hour, the fever left him. 53And the father knew that it was the same hour in which Iesus said unto him: Thy son liveth. And he believed, and all his household. 54This is again the second miracle, that Iesus did, after he was come out of jewry into Galilee.
