John 4:1 -4 (KJ21). 4 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John
2 (though Jesus Himself baptized not, but His disciples),
3 He left Judea and departed again into Galilee,
4 and He needed to go through Samaria.
John 4:5- 8. 5 Then came He to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with His journey, sat thus by the well; and it was about the sixth hour.
7 There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said unto her, “Give Me to drink.”
8 (For His disciples had gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
John 4:9- 10. 9 Then said the woman of Samaria unto Him, “How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest a drink of me, who 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.”
John 4:11 – 12. 11 The woman said 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, who gave us the well and drank thereof himself, and his children and his cattle?”
John 4:13 – 14 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.”
John 4:15 – 19. 15 The woman said unto Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.”
16 Jesus said 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 thou saidst truly.”
19 The woman said unto Him, “Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
John 4:26. 26 Jesus said unto her, “I that speak unto thee am He.”
