John 4
1 Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
ⲁ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϭⲉ ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ ϫⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲣ ϩⲁϩ ⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉ ⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲉ ϩⲁⲡⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ
5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

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

8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲛⲧⲕ ⲟⲩⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲕⲟⲩⲉϣ ⲥⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲉⲁⲛⲅ ⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲙⲉⲣⲉⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲱϩ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”

11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?

12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”

13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

17 The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’

20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”

21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲙⲉⲥⲥⲓⲁⲥ ⲛⲏⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲓ ϥⲛⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ
26 Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲉ
27 Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲣ ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲉⲛⲧⲟⲓ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲟⲩ ⲏ ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲕϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲥ
28 So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

29 “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

33 The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”

36 He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)

39 From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”

40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.

41 Many more believed because of his word.
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲱϥ ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ
42 They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϭⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲥⲱⲧⲏⲣ ⲙⲡⲕⲟⲙⲟⲥ
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.

44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

48 Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”

50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

51 As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”

52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.”

53 So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.
