John 4:15-22

English Standard Version

¹⁵ The woman said to him, “Sir, ^(A)give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.”

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, “Go, ^(B)call your husband, and come here.” ¹⁷ The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband’; ¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.” ¹⁹ The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that ^(C)you are ^(D)a prophet. ^20 (E)Our fathers worshiped on ^(F)this mountain, but you say that ^(G)in Jerusalem is ^(H)the place where people ought to worship.” ²¹ Jesus said to her, ^(I)“Woman, believe me, ^(J)the hour is coming when ^(K)neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. ^22 (L)You worship what you do not know; ^(M)we worship what we know, for ^(N)salvation is ^(O)from the Jews.
