    8 (For his disciples had gone into the city to buy food.)

    11 The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do you get this living water?

    12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?"

    13 Jesus answered her, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

    14 But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

    15 The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water."
