  John chapter 4. Therefore, when the Lord knew
• 0:03
  that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and
• 0:05
  baptizing more disciples than John, although Jesus himself was
• 0:09
  not baptizing, but His disciples were, he left Judea and went
• 0:12
  away again into Galilee. And he had to pass through
• 0:15
  Samaria. So he came to a city of Samaria
• 0:18
  called Cycar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his
• 0:21
  son Joseph. And Jacob's well was there.
• 0:24
  So Jesus, being wearied from his journey, was sitting thus by the
• 0:26
  well. It was about the 6th hour there
• 0:29
  came a woman of Samaria to draw water.
• 0:32
  Jesus said to her, give me a drink, for his disciples had
• 0:35
  gone away into the city to buy food.
• 0:37
  Therefore the Samaritan woman said to him, How is it that you
• 0:41
  being a Jew ask me for a drink, since I am a Samaritan woman,
• 0:45
  for Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
• 0:47
  Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God and
• 0:51
  who it is who says to you, give me a drink, you would have asked
• 0:54
  him, and he would have given you living water.
• 0:57
  She said to him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the
• 1:00
  well is deep, where do you get that living water?
• 1:03
  You are not greater than our Father Jacob, are you who gave
• 1:05
  us the well and drank of it himself and his sons and his
• 1:08
  cattle. Jesus answered and said to her,
• 1:11
  Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again, but
• 1:15
  whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never
• 1:17
  thirst, but the water that I will give him will become in him
• 1:20
  a well of water springing up to eternal life.
• 1:23
  The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, though I will not
• 1:27
  be thirsty, nor come all the way here to draw.
• 1:30
  He said to her, Go call your husband and come here.
• 1:33
  The woman answered and said, I have no husband.
• 1:36
  Jesus said to her, You have correctly said, I have no
• 1:39
  husband, for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you
• 1:42
  now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.
• 1:46
  The woman said to him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
• 1:50
  Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and you people say
• 1:53
  that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
• 1:55
  Jesus said to her, Woman, believe me, an hour is coming
• 1:58
  when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you
• 2:01
  worship the Father. You worship what you do not
• 2:03
  know. We worship what we know, for
• 2:05
  salvation is from the Jews. But an hour is coming, and now
• 2:08
  is when the true worshippers will worship the Father in
• 2:12
  spirit and truth. For such people the Father seeks
• 2:15
  to be his worshippers. God is spirit and those who
• 2:18
  worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.
• 2:21
  The woman said to him, I know that Messiah is coming, He who
• 2:24
  is called Christ, when that one comes, he will declare all
• 2:27
  things to us. Jesus said to her, I who speak
• 2:30
  to you am He. At this point his disciples came
• 2:33
  and they were amazed that he had been speaking with a woman, yet
• 2:36
  no one said, What do you seek or why do you speak with her?
• 2:39
  So the woman left her water pot and went into the city and said
• 2:41
  to the men, Come see a man who told me all the things that I've
• 2:44
  done. This is not the Christ, is it?
• 2:47
  They went out of the city and were coming to him.
• 2:50
  Meanwhile the disciples were urging him, saying, Rabbi eat.
• 2:53
  But he said to them, I have food to eat that you do not know
• 2:55
  about South. The disciples were saying to one
• 2:58
  another, No one brought him anything to eat, did he?
• 3:01
  Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of him who sent
• 3:04
  me, and to accomplish his work. Do you not say there are yet
• 3:08
  four months, and then comes the harvest.
• 3:10
  Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the
• 3:13
  fields, that they are white for harvest already.
• 3:16
  He who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life
• 3:19
  eternal, so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice
• 3:22
  together. For in this case the saying is
• 3:24
  true. 1 sows and another reaps. I sent you to reap that for
• 3:29
  which you have not laboured. Others have laboured, and you
• 3:31
  have entered into their labour from that city.
• 3:33
  Many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of
• 3:36
  the woman who testified. He told me all the things that I
• 3:39
  have done. So when the Samaritans came to
• 3:41
  Jesus, they were asking Him to stay with them, and he stayed
• 3:43
  there two days. Many more believed because of
• 3:46
  His word, and they were saying to the woman, It is no longer
• 3:49
  because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for
• 3:52
  ourselves and know that this one is indeed the Saviour of the
• 3:55
  world. After the two days he went forth
• 3:57
  from there into Galilee. For Jesus himself testified that
• 4:00
  a prophet has no honour in his own country.
• 4:03
  So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having
• 4:06
  seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem at the feast, for
• 4:09
  they themselves also went to the feast.
• 4:11
  Therefore he came again to Cana of Galilee, where he had made
• 4:14
  the water wine. And there was a royal official
• 4:16
  whose son was sick at Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had
• 4:19
  come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and was imploring
• 4:23
  him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of
• 4:26
  death. So Jesus said to him, Unless you
• 4:28
  people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe.
• 4:31
  The royal official said to him, Sir, come down before my child
• 4:34
  dies. Jesus said to him, Go, your son
• 4:37
  lives. The man believed the word that
• 4:40
  Jesus spoke to him and started off.
• 4:42
  As he was now going down, his slaves met him saying that his
• 4:44
  son was living. So he inquired of them the hour
• 4:47
  that he began to get better. Then they said to him yesterday
• 4:51
  at the 7th hour the fever left him.
• 4:53
  So the father knew that it was at the hour in which Jesus said
• 4:56
  to him, Your son lives, and he himself believed in his whole
• 4:59
  household. This is again a second sign that
• 5:02
  Jesus performed when he had come out of Judea into Galilee.
