John 4:25-40 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

25. The woman says to him, I know that Messias is coming, who is called Christ; when he comes he will tell us all things.

26. Jesus says to her, I who speak to thee am he.

27. And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he spoke with a woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

28. The woman then left her waterpot and went away into the city, and says to the men,

29. Come, see a man who told me all things I had ever done: is not he the Christ?

30. They went out of the city and came to him.

31. But meanwhile the disciples asked him saying, Rabbi, eat.

32. But he said to them, I have food to eat which ye do not know.

33. The disciples therefore said to one another, Has any one brought him anything to eat?

34. Jesus says to them, My food is that I should do the will of him that has sent me, and that I should finish his work.

35. Do not ye say, that there are yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest.

36. He that reaps receives wages and gathers fruit unto life eternal, that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.

37. For in this is verified the true saying, It is one who sows and another who reaps.

38. I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others have laboured, and ye have entered into their labours.

39. But many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him because of the word of the woman who bore witness, He told me all things that I had ever done.

40. When therefore the Samaritans came to him they asked him to abide with them, and he abode there two days.
