John 4:4-10

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.

7A woman of Samaria came to draw water. “Give me a drink,” Jesus said to her,

8because his disciples had gone into town to buy food.

9“How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” she asked him. For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.

10Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God, and who is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would ask him, and he would give you living water.”
