John 4:7-10

7A Samaritan woman went to get some water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink of water.”

8(His disciples had gone into the city to buy some food.)

9The Samaritan woman asked him, “How can a Jewish man like you ask a Samaritan woman like me for a drink of water?” (Jews, of course, don’t associate with Samaritans.)

10Jesus replied to her, “If you only knew what God’s gift is and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked him for a drink. He would have given you living water.”
