यूहन्ना 6
1 यसपछि, येशू गालील, अर्थात् तिबेरियसको झील पारि जानुभयो।
2 धेरै ठूलो भीडले येशूलाई पछ्यायो किनभने तिनीहरूले विरामीहरूलाई निको पार्न चमत्कारहरू गर्नु भएको देखेका थिए।
3 येशू डाँडामाथि जानु भयो अनि आफ्ना चेलाहरूसंग त्यहाँ बस्नु भयो।
4 त्यसबेला यहूदीहरूको निस्तार चाडको समय प्रायः आइसकेको थियो।
5 येशूले आफ्नो नजर उठाउनु भयो अनि धेरै मानिसहरू उहाँकहाँ आइरहेको देख्नु भयो। येशूले फिलिपलाई भन्नुभयो, “हामीले तिनीहरूलाई खुवाउनको निम्ति रोटीहरू कहाँ किन्न सक्छौं?”
6 येशूले यो प्रश्न फिलिपलाई जाँच्नलाई सोध्नु भएको थियो। उहाँलाई थाहा भइसकेको थियो कि उहाँले के गरिरहुनु भएको छ।
7 फिलिपले उत्तर दिए, “यदी हामी सबैले महिनाभरि काम गर्यौ भने पनि प्रत्येकलाई एक एक टुक्रा रोटी दिने पैसा पुग्ने छैन।”
8 त्यहाँ येशूका अर्का एक जना चेला थिए। तिनी शिमोन पत्रुसका भाइ अन्द्रियास थिए।
9 आन्द्रियासले भने, “यहाँ एक जना केटो छ। जसकोमा पाँच वटा जौको रोटी र दुइ टुक्रा साना माछा छन्। तर यो त्यति विघ्न मानिसहरूको लागि केही होइन।”
10 येशूले भन्नुभयो, मानिसहरूलाई बस्न लाऊ।”यो घाँसैघाँस भएको ठाउँ थियो। त्यहाँ 5,000 जति मानिसहरू बसिरहेका थिए।
11 येशूले रोटी लिनु भयो र परमेश्वरलाई यसको निम्ति धन्यवाद दिनुभयो, अनि त्यहाँ बसेका जम्मैलाई रोटी बाडनु भयो। माछा पनि त्यसरीनै बाँडनु भयो। येशूले मानिसहरूलाई जति चहान्थे त्यति नै दिनु भयो।
12 जब तिनीहरूले खाई सके येशूले आफ्ना चेलाहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “उब्रेका टुक्राहरू बटुल। केही पनि नष्ट नपार।”
13 तब चेलाहरूले उब्रिएको रोटीको टुक्राहरू बटुले। पाँचवटा जौको रोटीहरू मानिसहरूले खाएर उब्रेको टुक्राहरू तिनीहरूले ठूलाठूला बाह्रवटा डोकोहरू मा भरे। पाचँवटा रोटीहरू र दुईवटा माछाबाट मात्र शुरू गरेका थिए। चेलाहरूले ती उब्रेका टुक्राहरू ठूलठूला बाह्र डोकोहरूमा भरे।
14 येशूले त्यस्तो चमत्कार गर्नुभएको मानिसहरूले देखे। तिनीहरूले भने, “संसारमा जो अगमवक्ता आउनेवाला हुनु हुन्थ्यो साँच्चै उहाँ नै हुनु हुँदो रहेछ।
15 येशूले बुझनु भयो कि आउने अनि उहाँलाई जबरजस्ती राजा बनाउने योजना मानिसहरूले गर्दै थिए। यसकारण, उहाँले त्यो ठाँउ छाडेर एक्लै पहाडमा जानु भयो।
16 त्यस साँझ येशूका चेलाहरू गालील झील तर्फ गए।
17 यसबेला अन्ध्यारो भइसक्दा पनि येशू र्फकनु भएको थिएन। चेलाहरू डुङ्गामा चढे अनि कफर्नहुम जान लागे। कफर्नहुम समुद्रको अर्को पट्टि थियो।
18 हावा जोडले चलेकोले गर्दा त्यस समूद्रमा ठूलो छाल उठेर डुङ्गालाई उल्टा घचेटिरहेको थियो।
19 तिनीहरूले पाँच-छ कोलोमिटरसम्म डुङ्गा खियाएर लगे। तब तिनीहरूले येशूलाई देखे। उहाँ पानिमाथि हिंडिरहनु भएको थियो। उहाँ डुङ्गा भए तर्फ आउनु भयो। चेलाहरू डराए।
20 तर येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नु भयो, “नडराउ, यो म हूँ।”
21 जब उहाँले तिनीहरूसँग बात गर्नुभयो उहाँलाई डुङ्गामा ल्याउन पाँउदा तिनीहरू आनन्दित भए। तब डुङ्गा जमीनतिर आई पुग्यो जुन ठाउँमा तिनीहरू पुग्न चाहन्थे।
22 अर्को दिन आई पुग्यो। कोही मानिसहरू समुद्रको अर्को किनारतिर बसेका थिए। येशू अब आफ्ना चेलाहरूसंग जानु भएन भन्ने कुरा ती मानिसहरूले थाहा पाए, तर तिनीहरू आफै छोडीए। तिनीहरूले पनि थाहा पाए त्यहाँ एउटा मात्र डुङ्गा थियो।
23 तर तिबेरियासबाट केही डुङ्गाहरू आए। ती डुङ्गाहरू त्यही ठाँउ नजिक थामिए जहाँ परमप्रभुले परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद दिनु भए पछि त्यो भीडले रोटी खाएको थियो।
24 ती मानिसहरूले त्यहाँ अब न त येशू न उहाँका चेलाहरू नै देखे। यसर्थ तिनीहरू डुङ्गाहरू लिएर कफर्नहुमतिर लागे । किनभने तिनीहरू येशूलाई भेट्न चाहन्थे।
25 मानिसहरूले येशूलाई समुद्र पट्टि देखे। तिनीहरूले उहाँलाइ सोधे, “रब्बि, तपाईं यहाँ कहिले आई पुग्नु भयो?”
26 उहाँले उत्तर दिनु भयो, “तिमीहरूले मलाई किन खोजिरहेछौ? के मेरो चमत्कारहरू जसले मेरो शक्तिको प्रमाण दिन्छ देखे पछि मलाई खोजिरहेकाछौ? अहँ! म सत्य भन्छु, तिमीहरूले मलाई खोजेको कारण के हो भने तिमीहरूले रोटी खोयौ र पुरा अघायौ।
27 जुन खाद्य नष्ट हुन्छ त्यसको निम्ति काम नगर तर जुन खाद्य नष्ट हुँदैन अनि अनन्त जीवन दिन्छ त्यसको निम्ति काम गर। मानिसको पुत्रले तिमीहरूलाई त्यस्तो खाद्य दिनु हुन्छ। पिताले देखाएका छन् कि उनी मानिसका पुत्र संग छन्।”
28 मानिसहरूले येशूलाई सोधे, “परमेश्वरले हामीबाट कस्तो प्रकारको काम चाहनु हुन्छ।”
29 येशूले उत्तर दिनुभयो, “परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूबाट कस्तो काम चाहनुहुन्छ भने तिमीहरू उहाँले पठाउनु भएको एकमाथि विश्वास गर्नु पर्छ।”
30 तब मानिसहरूले सोधे, तपाईं परमेश्वरले पठाएको प्रमाण दिनलाई एक हो भन्ने के चमत्कार गर्नु सक्नु हुन्छ? यदि हामीले तपईंको चमत्कार देख्यौंै भने तब तपाईमाथि विश्वास गर्नेछौं। तपाईं के गर्नु हुनेछ?
31 मरूभूमिमा हाम्रा पिता पुर्खाहरूले मन्न खाए। यो धर्माशास्त्रमा लेखिएको छ, परमेश्वरले स्वर्गबाट रोटी खानलाई दिनुभयो।”‘
32 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “म तिमीहरूलाई साँचो भन्छु। मोशा तिनी एक होइनन् जसले तिमीहरूलाई स्वर्गबाट रोटी दिए। तर मेरा पिताले तिमीहरूलाई स्वर्गबाट साँचो रोटी दिनुहुन्छ।
33 परमेश्वरको रोटी के हो? परमेश्वरको रोटी भनेको त्यो चीज हो जुन स्वर्गबाट ओलेर्र संसारलाई जीवन दिनुहुन्छ।”
34 मानिसहरूले भने, “प्रभु, त्यो रोटी हामीलाई संधैं दिनुहोस्।”
35 तब येशूले भन्नुभयो, “म त्यो रोटी हुँ जसले जीवन दिंदछ। जुन मानिस मेरोमा आउँदछ ऊ कहिल्यै भोको हुँदैन। जुन मानिसले ममाथि विश्वास गर्दछ ऊ कहिल्यै तिर्खाउँदैन।
36 तर मैले तिमीहरूलाई भनिसकेको छु कि यद्यपि मलाई देखेकाछौ तापनि तिमीहरूले मलाई विश्वास गर्दैनौ।
37 जुन मानिसहरू पिताले मलाई दिनुहुन्छ मकहाँ आउनेछन्। मकहाँ जो आँउछन् म कसैलाई पनि फर्काउने छुइन।
38 परमेश्वरले जे चाहनु हुन्छ त्यो काम गर्न म स्वर्गबाट आएको हुँ। मैले चाहेको काम गर्नलाई म आएको होइन।
39 मैले कसैलाई पनि गुमाउनु हुँदैन जुन परमेश्वरले मलाई दिनुभयो अनि अन्तिम दिनमा मैले तिनीहरूलाई जीवनमा उठाउनु पर्छ। उहाँ एक जसले मलाई पठाउनु भयो, उहाँको यही इच्छा हो।
40 प्रत्येक मानिस जसले परमेश्वरका पुत्रलाई चिने र विश्वास गरे तिनीहरूले अनन्त जीवन पाए। म तिनीहरूलाई अन्त्यको दिनमा जीवित पार्नेछु। यो मेरा पिता परमेश्वरको इच्छा हो।”
41 यहूदीहरूले येशूको विषयमा गुनासो प्रकट गर्न शुरू गरे। येशूले भन्नु भएको थियो, “म नै रोटी हुँ जुन स्वर्गाबाट तल आएकोछ।”
42 यहूदीहरूले भने, “यो येशू हो। हामी उहाँका बाबु-आमा चिन्दछौ। उ यूसुफको छोरो हो। उसले कसरी भन्न सक्छ, ‘म स्वर्गबाट ओर्लि आएको हुँ?’
43 तर येशूले भन्नु भयो, “एक-अर्कामा गनगनाउन बन्द गर।
44 पिता एक हुनुहुन्छ जसले मलाई पठाउनु भयो अनि मानिसहरूलाई मेरो समक्ष ल्याइदिनु हुन्छ। तिनीहरूलाई म अन्त्यको दिनमा जीवित पार्नेछु। कोही पनि आफ्नो मर्जीले आउन सक्तैन। केवल पिताले मात्र मकहाँ ल्याइदिनु सक्नुहुन्छ।
45 अगमवक्ताहरूले लेखेः ‘परमेश्वरले सबैलाई सिकाउनु हुनेछन्।’ मानिसहरू जसले पितालाई सुन्नेछन्। अनि उहाँबाटै सिक्ने छन् मकहाँ आउनेछन्।
46 मैले यो भन्न खोजेको होइन कि पितालाई कसैले देखेकाछन्। तिनी मात्र एक हुन् जो पिताबाट आएकाछन्। जसले पितालाई देखेकाछन्।
47 म तिमीहरूलाई साँचो भन्दछु, जसले विश्वास गर्छ त्यससित अनन्त जीवन हुनेछ।
48 म रोटी हुँ जसले जीवन प्रदान गर्दछ।
49 तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले मरूभमूमिमा मन्ना खाए तरै पनि अन्य मानिसहरू जस्तै तिनीहरू मरे।
50 म त्यो रोटी हुँ जो स्वर्गबाट आयो। यदि कुनै मानिसले यो रोटी खाँदछ भने उ कहिल्यै मर्दैन।
51 म जिउँदो रोटी हुँ जो स्वर्गबाट आएको हो। जो मानिसले त्यो रोटी खाँदछ ऊ अनन्त सम्म बाँच्दछ। यो रोटी मेरो शरीर हो। म दिनेछु ताकि संसारका मानिसहरूले जीवन पाउनेछन्।”
52 तब यहूदीहरूको आपसमा वाद-विवाद शुरू भयो। तिनीहरूले भने, “यो मान्छेले कसरी आफ्नो शरीर खान दिन्छ?”
53 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “म साँचो भन्छु। तिमीहरूले मानिसको पुत्रको शरीर खानै पर्छ। उसको रगत पिउनु नै पर्छ। यदि तिमीहरूले त्यसो गरेनौ भने तिमीहरूले जीवन पाउने छैनौ।
54 तर जसले मेरो शरीर खान्छ र रगत पिउँछ उसको जीवन अनन्त हुन्छ। अन्त्यको दिनमा म उसलाई उठाउनेछु।
55 मेरो शरीर साँचो भोजन हो। मेरो रगत साँचो पिउने कुरा हो।
56 जसले मेरो शरीर खान्छ र रगत पिउँदछ तब त्यो मानिस मभित्र र म ऊभित्र हुनेछ।
57 जीवित पिताले मलाई पठाएका हुन्। उहाँको कारणले म बाँच्छु। यसर्थ जसले मलाई खाँदछ मेरो कारणले पनि ऊ बाँच्नेछ।
58 म त्यो रोटी जस्तो होइन जुन हाम्रा पिताहरूले मरूभूमिमा खाए औ अन्य मानिसहरू सरह मरे। म स्वर्गबाट आएको त्यो रोटी हुँ। ऊ जसले यो रोटी खाँदछ, अनन्त बाँच्ने छ।”
59 येशूले ती कुराहरू त्यतिबेला गर्नुभयो जब उहाँ कफर्नहुम शहरको यहूदीहरूको सभा-घरमा सिकाउनु हुँदैथ्यो।
60 धेरै येशूका चेलाहरूले यस्तो सुनेपछि भने, “यो शिक्षा बुझ्न गाह्रो छ। कसले यो शिक्षा ग्रहण गर्न सक्छ?”
61 येशूले चेलाहरू गनगनाउँदैछन् भन्ने थाहा पाउनु भयो। तिमीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “के यस शिक्षाले तिमीहरूलाई ठेस लाग्छ?
62 तब तिमीहरूले मानिसको पुत्रलाई जहाँ ऊ पहिले थियो, त्यहाँ जाँदै गरेको देख्यौ भने के हुन्छ?
63 त्यो आत्मा हो जसले मानिसलाई जीवन दिन्छ। शरीरबाट केही फाईदा छैन। म जो चीज तिमीहरूलाई भन्छु त्यो आत्मा हो तिनहरूले जीवन दिन्छ।
64 तर तिमीहरू मध्ये कसैले विश्वास गर्दैनौ।” येशूलाई शुरूबाट नै थाहा थियो कस कसले विश्वास गरेनन् र कसले धोखा दिन्छ।
65 येशूले भन्नुभयो “त्यसैले मैले भनेकोछु ‘पिताले अनुमति नदिए सम्म कोही पनि म भएकोमा आउन सक्तैन।”‘
66 जब येशूले त्यसो भन्नुभयो, उनका धेरै चेलाहरू पछि हटे र उहाँको पछि लाग्नु छाडे।
67 येशूले बाह्रजना प्रेरितहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीहरू पनि छाड्न चाहन्छौ?”
68 शिमोन पत्रुसले उहाँलाई जवाफ दिए, “हे प्रभु हामी कसकोमा जाऊँ? तपाईंकोमा वचन छ जसले अनन्त जीवन दिन्छ।
69 हामी तपाईंमाथि विश्वास गर्छौं। हामी जान्दछौं कि तपाईं मात्र एक पवित्र हुनुहुन्छ जो परमेश्वरबाट आउनुभएको हो।”
70 तब येशूले उत्तर दिनुभयो “मैले तिमीहरू बाह्रजनालाई चुन्छु। तर पनि तिमीहरूमा एकजना शैतान हो।”
71 येशूले यहूदाको विषयमा भनिरहनु भएको थियो। यहूदा शिमोन इस्कारियोतको छोरो थिए। यहूदा ती बाह्र चेलाहरू मध्येका एकजना थिए। किनभने उसले उहाँलाई धोका दिनेवाला थियो।
1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
48 I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.
52 Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.
