John 3:31-4:6

New International Version

³¹ The one who comes from above^(A) is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth.^(B) The one who comes from heaven is above all. ³² He testifies to what he has seen and heard,^(C) but no one accepts his testimony.^{(D) 33} Whoever has accepted it has certified that God is truthful. ³⁴ For the one whom God has sent^(E) speaks the words of God, for God^[a] gives the Spirit^(F) without limit. ³⁵ The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands.^{(G) 36} Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life,^(H) but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them.

Jesus Talks With a Samaritan Woman

4 Now Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John^(I)— ² although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his disciples. ³ So he left Judea^(J) and went back once more to Galilee.

⁴ Now he had to go through Samaria.^{(K) 5} So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph.^{(L) 6} Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon.
