4:5 Therefore Jesus came into a city of Samaria, that is called Sychar, beside the place [beside the manor, or field], that Jacob gave to Joseph, his son.
4:6 And the well of Jacob was there; and Jesus was weary of the journey, and sat thus upon the well [soothly Jesus made weary of the journey, sat thus on the well]. And the hour was, as it were the sixth.
4:7 And a woman came from Samaria, to draw water. And Jesus saith to her, Give me [to] drink.
4:8 And his disciples were gone into the city, to buy meat.
4:9 Therefore that woman of Samaria saith to him, How thou, that art a Jew, askest of me a drink, that am a woman of Samaria [which am a woman of Samaria]? for [the] Jews used not to deal with [the] Samaritans.
4:10 Jesus answered, and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is, that saith to thee, Give me [to] drink, thou peradventure wouldest have asked of him, and he should have given to thee quick water.
4:11 The woman saith to him, Sire, thou hast not wherein to draw [Sire, neither thou hast in what thing thou shalt draw], and the pit is deep; whereof then hast thou quick water?
4:12 Whether thou art greater than our father Jacob, that gave to us the pit? and he drank thereof, and his sons, and his beasts.
4:13 Jesus answered, and said to her, Each man that drinketh of this water, shall thirst again;
4:14 but he that drinketh of the water that I shall give him, shall not thirst without end [shall not thirst into without end]; but the water that I shall give him, shall be made in him a well of water, springing up into everlasting life.
4:15 The woman saith to him, Sire, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
4:16 Jesus saith to her, Go, call thine husband, and come hither.
4:17 The woman answered, and said, I have none husband [I have not an husband]. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidest well, That I have none husband [For I have not an husband];
4:18 for thou hast had five husbands, and he that thou hast, is not thine husband [and he whom thou hast now, is not thine husband]. This thing thou saidest soothly.
4:19 The woman saith to him, Lord, I see, that thou art a prophet.
4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this hill, and ye say, that at Jerusalem is a place, where it behooveth to worship.
4:21 Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe thou to me, for the hour shall come, when neither in this hill, neither in Jerusalem [nor in Jerusalem], ye shall worship the Father.
4:22 Ye worship that that ye know not; we worship that that we know; for health is of the Jews.
4:23 But the time is come [But the hour cometh], and now it is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for also the Father seeketh such, that worship him.
4:24 God is a Spirit, and it behooveth them that worship him, to worship in spirit and truth.
4:25 The woman saith to him, I know that Messias is come, that is said Christ; therefore when he cometh [therefore when he shall come], he shall tell us all things.
4:26 Jesus saith to her, I am he, that speaketh with thee. [Jesus saith to her, I am, that speak with thee.]
4:27 And at once [And anon] his disciples came, and wondered, that he spake with the woman; nevertheless no man said to him, What seekest thou, or, What speakest thou with her?
4:28 Therefore the woman left her water pot, and went into the city, and said to the men [and saith to the men],
4:29 Come ye, and see a man, that said to me all things that I have done; whether he be Christ? [Come ye, and see a man, that said to me all things what ever I have done; whether he is Christ?]
4:30 And they went out of the city, and came to him.
4:31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, and said, Master, eat. [In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, or Master, eat.]
4:32 But he said to them, I have meat to eat, that ye know not.
4:33 Therefore the disciples said together, Whether any man hath brought him meat to eat [Whether any man brought to him to eat]?
4:34 Jesus saith to them, My meat is, that I do the will of him that sent me, [and] that I perform the work of him.
4:35 Whether ye say not, that yet four months be, and ripe corn cometh? Lo! I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see ye the fields, for now they be white to reap.
4:36 And he that reapeth taketh hire, and gathereth fruit into everlasting life; that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, have joy together.
4:37 In this thing is the word true, For one is that soweth, and another that reapeth.
4:38 I sent you to reap, that that ye have not travailed; other men have travailed, and ye have entered into their travails.
4:39 And of that city many [of the] Samaritans believed in him, for the word of the woman, that bare witnessing, That he said to me all things that I have done [For he said to me all things, whatever I did].
4:40 Therefore when Samaritans came to him, they prayed him to dwell there [they prayed him, that he should dwell there]; and he dwelt there two days.
4:42 and said to the woman, That now not for thy speech we believe; for we have heard, and we know, that this is verily the Saviour of the world.
4:43 And after two days he went out from thence [Forsooth after two days he went thence], and went into Galilee.
4:44 And he [Jesus] bare witnessing, that a prophet in his own country hath none honour. [Soothly he Jesus bare witnessing, for a prophet in his own country hath not honour, or worship.]
4:45 Therefore when he came into Galilee, men of Galilee received him, when they had seen all things that he had done in Jerusalem in the feast day; for also they had come to the feast day.
4:46 Therefore he came again into the Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a little king, whose son was sick at Capernaum. [Therefore he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And some little king was, whose son was sick at Capernaum.]
4:47 When this had heard, that Jesus should come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him, and prayed him, that he should come down, and heal his son; for he began to die.
4:48 Therefore Jesus said to him, But ye see tokens and great wonders, ye believe not.
4:49 The little king saith to him, Lord, come down, before that my son die.
4:50 Jesus saith to him, Go, thy son liveth. The man believed to the word, that Jesus said to him, and he went.
4:51 And now when he came down [Soothly now him coming down], the servants came to meet him, and told to him, and said [saying], That his son lived.
4:52 And he asked of them the hour, in which he was amended. And they said to him, For yesterday in the seventh hour the fever left him.
4:53 Therefore the father knew, that that hour it was, in which Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth; and he believed, and all his house.
4:54 Jesus did again this second token, when he came from Judaea into Galilee.
