    4And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.

    5So he came to a town of Samaria which was named Sychar, near to the bit of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph:

    6Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

    7A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.

    8For his disciples had gone to the town to get food.

    9The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.

    10In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.

    11The woman said to him, Sir, you have no vessel and the fountain is deep; from where will you get the living water?

    12Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?

    13Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:

    14But whoever takes the water I give him will never be in need of drink again; for the water I give him will become in him a fountain of eternal life.

    15The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.

    25The woman said to him, I am certain that the Messiah, who is named Christ, is coming; when he comes he will make all things clear to us.

    26Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.

    27At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?

    28Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,

    29Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?

    30So they went out of the town and came to him.
