15. The woman saith to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16. Jesus saith to her: Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17. The woman answered, and said: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast said well, I have no husband:
18. For thou hast had five husbands: and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. This thou hast said truly.
19. The woman saith to him: Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20. Our fathers adored on this mountain, and you say, that at Jerusalem is the place where men must adore.
21. Jesus saith to her: Woman, believe me, that the hour cometh, when you shall neither on this mountain, not in Jerusalem, adore the Father.
22. You adore that which you know not: we adore that which we know; for salvation is of the Jews.
23. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true adorers shall adore the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father also seeketh such to adore him.
24. God is a spirit; and they that adore him, must adore him in spirit and in truth.
25. The woman saith to him: I know that the Messias cometh (who is called Christ); therefore, when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26. Jesus saith to her: I am he, who am speaking with thee.
27. And immediately his disciples came; and they wondered that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What seekest thou? or, why talkest thou with her?
28. The woman therefore left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men there:
29. Come, and see a man who has told me all things whatsoever I have done. Is not he the Christ?
30. They went therefore out of the city, and came unto him.
31. In the mean time the disciples prayed him, saying: Rabbi, eat.
