John 4

WEB·John 4
1Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
KJVWhenG5613 thereforeG3767 the LordG2962 knewG1097(G5627) howG3754 the PhariseesG5330 had heardG191(G5656) thatG3754 JesusG2424 madeG4160(G5719) andG2532 baptizedG907(G5719) moreG4119 disciplesG3101 thanG2228 JohnG2491,
2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),
KJV(ThoughG2544 JesusG2424 himselfG846 baptizedG907(G5707) notG3756, butG235 hisG846 disciplesG3101,)
3 he left Judea and departed into Galilee.
KJVHe leftG863(G5656) JudaeaG2449, andG2532 departedG565(G5627) againG3825 intoG1519 GalileeG1056.
4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
KJVAndG1161 he must needsG1163(G5713) goG1330(G5738) throughG1223 SamariaG4540.
5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
KJVThenG3767 cometh heG2064(G5736) toG1519 a cityG4172 of SamariaG4540, which is calledG3004(G5746) SycharG4965, nearG4139 to the parcel of groundG5564 thatG3739 JacobG2384 gaveG1325(G5656) to hisG846 sonG5207 JosephG2501.
6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
KJVNowG1161 Jacob'sG2384 wellG4077 wasG2258(G5713) thereG1563. JesusG2424 thereforeG3767, being weariedG2872(G5761) withG1537 his journeyG3597, satG2516(G5711) thusG3779 onG1909 the wellG4077: and it wasG2258(G5713) aboutG5616 the sixthG1623 hourG5610.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
KJVThere comethG2064(G5736) a womanG1135 ofG1537 SamariaG4540 to drawG501(G5658) waterG5204: JesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto herG846, GiveG1325(G5628) meG3427 to drinkG4095(G5629).
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
KJV(ForG1063 hisG846 disciplesG3101 were gone awayG565(G5715) untoG1519 the cityG4172 toG2443 buyG59(G5661) meatG5160.)
9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
KJVThenG3767 saithG3004(G5719) the womanG1135 of SamariaG4542 unto himG846, How is it thatG4459 thouG4771, beingG5607(G5752) a JewG2453, askestG154(G5719) drinkG4095(G5629) ofG3844 meG1700, which amG5607(G5752) a womanG1135 of SamariaG4542? forG1063 the JewsG2453 haveG4798 noG3756 dealingsG4798(G5736) with the SamaritansG4541.
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”
KJVJesusG2424 answeredG611(G5662) andG2532 saidG2036(G5627) unto herG846, IfG1487 thou knewestG1492(G5715) the giftG1431 of GodG2316, andG2532 whoG5101 it isG2076(G5748) that saithG3004(G5723) to theeG4671, GiveG1325(G5628) meG3427 to drinkG4095(G5629); thouG4771 wouldestG302 have askedG154(G5656) of himG846, andG2532 he wouldG302 have givenG1325(G5656) theeG4671 livingG2198(G5723) waterG5204.
11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?
KJVThe womanG1135 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, SirG2962, thou hastG2192(G5719) nothingG3777 to draw withG502, andG2532 the wellG5421 isG2076(G5748) deepG901: from whenceG4159 thenG3767 hast thouG2192(G5719) that livingG2198(G5723) waterG5204?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”
KJVG3361 ArtG1488(G5748) thouG4771 greaterG3187 than ourG2257 fatherG3962 JacobG2384, whichG3739 gaveG1325(G5656) usG2254 the wellG5421, andG2532 drankG4095(G5627) thereofG1537G846 himselfG846, andG2532 hisG846 childrenG5207, andG2532 hisG846 cattleG2353?
13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
KJVJesusG2424 answeredG611(G5662) andG2532 saidG2036(G5627) unto herG846, WhosoeverG3956 drinkethG4095(G5723) ofG1537 thisG5127 waterG5204 shall thirstG1372(G5692) againG3825:
14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
KJVButG1161 whosoeverG3739G302 drinkethG4095(G5632) ofG1537 the waterG5204 thatG3739 IG1473 shall giveG1325(G5692) himG846 shallG1372 neverG1519G165G3364 thirstG1372(G5661); butG235 the waterG5204 thatG3739 I shall giveG1325(G5692) himG846 shall beG1096(G5695) inG1722 himG846 a wellG4077 of waterG5204 springing upG242(G5740) intoG1519 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”
KJVThe womanG1135 saithG3004(G5719) untoG4314 himG846, SirG2962, giveG1325(G5628) meG3427 thisG5124 waterG5204, thatG3363 I thirstG1372(G5725) notG3363, neitherG3366 comeG2064(G5741) hitherG1759 to drawG501(G5721).
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto herG846, GoG5217(G5720), callG5455(G5657) thyG4675 husbandG435, andG2532 comeG2064(G5628) hitherG1759.
17 The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’
KJVThe womanG1135 answeredG611(G5662) andG2532 saidG2036(G5627), I haveG2192(G5719) noG3756 husbandG435. JesusG2424 saidG3004(G5719) unto herG846, Thou hastG2036 wellG2573 saidG2036(G5627),G3754 I haveG2192(G5719) noG3756 husbandG435:
18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”
KJVForG1063 thou hast hadG2192(G5627) fiveG4002 husbandsG435; andG2532 he whomG3739 thouG2192 nowG3568 hastG2192(G5719) isG2076(G5748) notG3756 thyG4675 husbandG435: in thatG5124 saidst thouG2046(G5758) trulyG227.
19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
KJVThe womanG1135 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, SirG2962, I perceiveG2334(G5719) thatG3754 thouG4771 artG1488(G5748) a prophetG4396.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”
KJVOurG2257 fathersG3962 worshippedG4352(G5656) inG1722 thisG5129 mountainG3735; andG2532 yeG5210 sayG3004(G5719), thatG3754 inG1722 JerusalemG2414 isG2076(G5748) the placeG5117 whereG3699 men oughtG1163(G5748) to worshipG4352(G5721).
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto herG846, WomanG1135, believeG4100(G5657) meG3427, the hourG5610 comethG3754G2064(G5736), whenG3753 ye shallG4352 neitherG3777 inG1722 thisG5129 mountainG3735, nor yetG3777 atG1722 JerusalemG2414, worshipG4352(G5692) the FatherG3962.
22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
KJVYeG5210 worshipG4352(G5719) ye knowG1492(G5758) notG3756 whatG3739: we knowG1492(G5758) whatG3739 weG2249 worshipG4352(G5719): forG3754 salvationG4991 isG2076(G5748) ofG1537 the JewsG2453.
23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.
KJVButG235 the hourG5610 comethG2064(G5736), andG2532 nowG3568 isG2076(G5748), whenG3753 the trueG228 worshippersG4353 shall worshipG4352(G5692) the FatherG3962 inG1722 spiritG4151 andG2532 in truthG225: forG2532G1063 the FatherG3962 seekethG2212(G5719) suchG5108 to worshipG4352(G5723) himG846.
24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
KJVGodG2316 is a SpiritG4151: andG2532 they that worshipG4352(G5723) himG846 mustG1163(G5748) worshipG4352(G5721) him inG1722 spiritG4151 andG2532 in truthG225.
25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”
KJVThe womanG1135 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, I knowG1492(G5758) thatG3754 MessiasG3323 comethG2064(G5736), whichG3588 is calledG3004(G5746) ChristG5547: whenG3752 heG1565 is comeG2064(G5632), he will tellG312(G5692) usG2254 all thingsG3956.
26 Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto herG846, IG1473 that speakG2980(G5723) unto theeG4671 amG1510(G5748) he.
27 Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”
KJVAndG2532 uponG1909 thisG5129 cameG2064(G5627) hisG846 disciplesG3101, andG2532 marvelledG2296(G5656) thatG3754 he talkedG2980(G5707) withG3326 the womanG1135: yetG3305 no manG3762 saidG2036(G5627), WhatG5101 seekest thouG2212(G5719)? orG2228, WhyG5101 talkest thouG2980(G5719) withG3326 herG846?
28 So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,
KJVThe womanG1135 thenG3767 leftG863(G5656) herG846 waterpotG5201, andG2532 went her wayG565(G5627) intoG1519 the cityG4172, andG2532 saithG3004(G5719) to the menG444,
29 “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”
KJVComeG1205(G5773), seeG1492(G5628) a manG444, whichG3739 toldG2036(G5627) meG3427 all thingsG3956 that everG3745 I didG4160(G5656): isG2076(G5748) notG3385 thisG3778 the ChristG5547?
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
KJVThenG3767 they wentG1831(G5627) out ofG1537 the cityG4172, andG2532 cameG2064(G5711) untoG4314 himG846.
31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
KJVG1161 InG1722 the meanG3342 while his disciplesG3101 prayedG2065(G5707) himG846, sayingG3004(G5723), MasterG4461, eatG5315(G5628).
32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”
KJVButG1161 he saidG2036(G5627) unto themG846, IG1473 haveG2192(G5719) meatG1035 to eatG5315(G5629) thatG3739 yeG5210 knowG1492 notG3756 ofG1492(G5758).
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”
KJVThereforeG3767 saidG3004(G5707) the disciplesG3101 one to anotherG4314G240, HathG5342 any manG3387 broughtG5342(G5656) himG846 ought to eatG5315(G5629)?
34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto themG846, MyG1699 meatG1033 isG2076(G5748) toG2443 doG4160(G5725) the willG2307 of him that sentG3992(G5660) meG3165, andG2532 to finishG5048(G5661) hisG846 workG2041.
35 Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest’? Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.
KJVSayG3004(G5719) notG3756 yeG5210, ThereG3754 areG2076(G5748) yetG2089 four monthsG5072, andG2532 then comethG2064(G5736) harvestG2326? beholdG2400(G5628), I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213, Lift upG1869(G5657) yourG5216 eyesG3788, andG2532 look onG2300(G5663) the fieldsG5561; forG3754 they areG1526(G5748) whiteG3022 alreadyG2235 toG4314 harvestG2326.
36 He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
KJVAndG2532 he that reapethG2325(G5723) receivethG2983(G5719) wagesG3408, andG2532 gatherethG4863(G5719) fruitG2590 untoG1519 lifeG2222 eternalG166: thatG2443 bothG2532 he that sowethG4687(G5723) andG2532 he that reapethG2325(G5723) may rejoiceG5463(G5725) togetherG3674.
37 For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’
KJVAndG1063 hereinG1722G5129 isG2076(G5748) that sayingG3056 trueG228,G3754 OneG243 sowethG2076(G5748)G4687(G5723), andG2532 anotherG243 reapethG2325(G5723).
38 I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
KJVIG1473 sentG649(G5656) youG5209 to reapG2325(G5721) that whereonG3739 yeG5210 bestowedG2872 noG3756 labourG2872(G5758): other menG243 labouredG2872(G5758), andG2532 yeG5210 are enteredG1525(G5754) intoG1519 theirG846 laboursG2873.
39 From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”
KJVAndG1161 manyG4183 of the SamaritansG4541 ofG1537 thatG1565 cityG4172 believedG4100(G5656) onG1519 himG846 forG1223 the sayingG3056 of the womanG1135, which testifiedG3140(G5723),G3754 He toldG2036(G5627) meG3427 allG3956 that everG3745 I didG4160(G5656).
40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.
KJVSoG3767 whenG5613 the SamaritansG4541 were comeG2064(G5627) untoG4314 himG846, they besoughtG2065(G5707) himG846 that he would tarryG3306(G5658) withG3844 themG846: andG2532 he abodeG3306(G5656) thereG1563 twoG1417 daysG2250.
41 Many more believed because of his word.
KJVAndG2532 manyG4183 moreG4119 believedG4100(G5656) becauseG1223 of his ownG846 wordG3056;
42 They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
KJVAndG5037 saidG3004(G5707) unto the womanG1135,G3754 NowG3765 we believeG4100(G5719), notG3754 becauseG1223 of thyG4674 sayingG2981: forG1063 we have heardG191(G5754) him ourselvesG846, andG2532 knowG1492(G5758) thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076(G5748) indeedG230 the ChristG5547, the SaviourG4990 of the worldG2889.
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.
KJVNowG1161 afterG3326 twoG1417 daysG2250 he departedG565(G5627)G1831(G5627) thenceG1564, andG2532 went intoG1519 GalileeG1056.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
KJVForG1063 JesusG2424 himselfG846 testifiedG3140(G5656), thatG3754 a prophetG4396 hathG2192(G5719) noG3756 honourG5092 inG1722 his ownG2398 countryG3968.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.
KJVThenG3767 whenG3753 he was comeG2064(G5627) intoG1519 GalileeG1056, the GalilaeansG1057 receivedG1209(G5662) himG846, having seenG3708(G5761) all the thingsG3956 thatG3739 he didG4160(G5656) atG1722 JerusalemG2414 atG1722 the feastG1859: forG1063 theyG846 alsoG2532 wentG2064(G5627) untoG1519 the feastG1859.
46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
KJVSoG3767 JesusG2424 cameG2064(G5627) againG3825 intoG1519 CanaG2580 of GalileeG1056, whereG3699 he madeG4160(G5656) the waterG5204 wineG3631. AndG2532 there wasG2258(G5713) a certainG5100 noblemanG937, whoseG3739 sonG5207 was sickG770(G5707) atG1722 CapernaumG2584.
47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.
KJVWhen heG3778 heardG191(G5660) thatG3754 JesusG2424 was comeG2240(G5719) out ofG1537 JudaeaG2449 intoG1519 GalileeG1056, he wentG565(G5627) untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 besoughtG2065(G5707) himG846 thatG2443 he would come downG2597(G5632), andG2532 healG2390(G5667) hisG846 sonG5207: forG1063 he was at the pointG3195(G5707) of deathG599(G5721).
48 Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”
KJVThenG3767 saidG2036(G5627) JesusG2424 untoG4314 himG846, ExceptG3362 ye seeG1492(G5632) signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059, ye willG4100 notG3364 believeG4100(G5661).
49 The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”
KJVThe noblemanG937 saithG3004(G5719) untoG4314 himG846, SirG2962, come downG2597(G5628) ereG4250 myG3450 childG3813 dieG599(G5629).
50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, Go thy wayG4198(G5737); thyG4675 sonG5207 livethG2198(G5719). AndG2532 the manG444 believedG4100(G5656) the wordG3056 thatG3739 JesusG2424 had spokenG2036(G5627) unto himG846, andG2532 he went his wayG4198(G5711).
51 As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”
