John 4:1-6

1When Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard he was making and baptizing more disciples than John

2(though Jesus himself was not baptizing, but his disciples were),

3he left Judea and went again to Galilee.

4He had to travel through Samaria;

5so he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar near the property that Jacob had given his son Joseph.

6Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, worn out from his journey, sat down at the well. It was about noon.
