生命的活水

主知道法利賽人聽見他收門徒和施洗比約翰更多( 其實不是耶穌親自施洗,而是他的門徒施洗), 就離開了猶太,再往加利利去。 他必須經過撒瑪利亞。 於是到了撒瑪利亞的一座城,名叫敘加;這城靠近雅各給他兒子約瑟的那塊地。 在那裡有雅各井。耶穌因為旅途疲倦了,就坐在井旁;那時大約正午。

有一個撒瑪利亞婦人來打水。耶穌對她說:“請給我水喝。” 那時,他的門徒都進城買食物去了。 撒瑪利亞婦人對耶穌說:“你是猶太人,怎麼向我,一個撒瑪利亞婦人要水喝呢?”(原來猶太人和撒瑪利亞人不相往來。) 10 耶穌回答她:“你若知道 神的恩賜,和對你說‘請給我水喝’的是誰,你必早已求他,他也必早把活水賜給你了。” 11 婦人說:“先生,你沒有打水的器具,井又深,你從哪裡得活水呢? 12 我們的祖先雅各把這口井留給我們,他自己和子孫以及牲畜都喝這井的水,難道你比他還大嗎?” 13 耶穌回答:“凡喝這水的,還要再渴; 14 人若喝我所賜的水,就永遠不渴。我所賜的水要在他裡面成為湧流的泉源,直湧到永生。” 15 婦人說:“先生,請把這水賜給我,使我不渴,也不用來這裡打水。”

必須用心靈按真理敬拜 神

16 耶穌說:“你去,叫你的丈夫,然後回到這裡來。” 17 婦人對他說:“我沒有丈夫。”耶穌說:“你說‘沒有丈夫’是不錯的。 18 你以前有五個丈夫,現在有的並不是你的丈夫;你說這話是真的。” 19 婦人說:“先生,我看出你是先知。 20 我們的祖先在這山上敬拜 神,而你們卻說,敬拜的地方必須在耶路撒冷。” 21 耶穌說:“婦人,你應當信我,時候將到,那時你們敬拜父,不在這山上,也不在耶路撒冷。 22 你們敬拜你們所不知道的,我們卻敬拜我們所知道的,因為救恩是從猶太人出來的。 23 然而時候將到,現在就是了,那用心靈按真理敬拜父的,才是真正敬拜的人;因為父在尋找這樣敬拜他的人。 24  神是靈,敬拜他的必須藉著靈按真理敬拜他。” 25 婦人說:“我知道那稱為基督的彌賽亞要來;他來了,要把一切都告訴我們。” 26 耶穌說:“我這現在跟你說話的就是他。”

27 正在這時候,門徒回來了,見耶穌和一個婦人說話,就很希奇;但是沒有人問:“你要甚麼?”或說:“你為甚麼跟她說話?” 28 那婦人撇下了她的水罐,進到城裡去,對眾人說: 29 “你們來,看看一個人,他把我所作的一切都說出來,難道這人就是基督嗎?” 30 眾人就出城,往耶穌那裡去。

莊稼已經熟了

31 當時,門徒對耶穌說:“拉比,請吃。” 32 耶穌說:“我有食物吃,是你們所不知道的。” 33 門徒就彼此說:“難道有人拿東西給他吃了嗎?” 34 耶穌說:“我的食物就是遵行差我來者的旨意,並且完成他的工作。 35 你們不是說‘還有四個月才到收穫的時候’嗎?我告訴你們,舉目向田觀看,莊稼已經熟了,可以收割了。 36 收割的人得到工資,也積儲五穀直到永生,使撒種的和收割的一同快樂。 37 ‘這人撒種,那人收割’,這話是真的。 38 我派你們去收割你們所沒有勞苦的;別人勞苦,你們卻享受他們勞苦的成果。”

39 因著那婦人作見證的話:“他把我所作的一切都說出來了”,那城裡就有許多撒瑪利亞人信了耶穌。 40 於是他們來到耶穌那裡,求他和他們同住,耶穌就在那裡住了兩天。 41 因著耶穌的話,信他的人就更多了。 42 他們就對那婦人說:“現在我們信,不再是因為你的話,而是因為我們親自聽見了,知道這位真是世人的救主。”

治好大臣的兒子

43 兩天之後,耶穌離開那裡,往加利利去。 44 耶穌自己說過:“先知在本鄉是不受尊敬的。” 45 耶穌到了加利利的時候,加利利人都歡迎他,因為他們曾經上耶路撒冷去過節,見過他所行的一切。

46 耶穌又到了加利利的迦拿,就是他變水為酒的地方。有一個大臣,他的兒子在迦百農患病。 47 他聽見耶穌從猶太到了加利利,就來見他,求他下去醫治他的兒子,因為他的兒子快要死了。 48 耶穌對他說:“你們若看不見神蹟奇事,總是不肯信。” 49 大臣說:“先生,求你趁我的孩子還沒有死就下去吧!” 50 耶穌告訴他:“回去吧,你的兒子好了。”那人信耶穌對他說的話,就回去了。 51 正下去的時候,他的僕人迎著他走來,說他的孩子好了。 52 他就向僕人查問孩子是甚麼時候好轉的。他們告訴他:“昨天下午一點鐘,熱就退了。” 53 這父親就知道,那正是耶穌告訴他“你的兒子好了”的時候,他自己和全家就信了。 54 這是耶穌從猶太回到加利利以後所行的第二件神蹟。

When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)

He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

And he must needs go through Samaria.

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.

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.

There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)

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 enquired 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.

Now oun when hōs Jesus Iēsous learned ginōskō · ho that hoti the ho Pharisees Pharisaios had heard akouō that hoti Jesus Iēsous was making poieō and kai baptizing baptizō more polys disciples mathētēs than ē John Iōannēs although kaitoige Jesus Iēsous himself autos was not ou baptizing baptizō, but alla · ho his autos disciples mathētēs were— he left aphiēmi · ho Judea Ioudaia and kai departed aperchomai again palin for eis · ho Galilee Galilaia. Now de it was necessary dei that he autos pass dierchomai through dia · ho Samaria Samareia. So oun he came erchomai to eis a town polis in ho Samaria Samareia called legō Sychar Sychar, near plēsion the ho plot chōrion of ground that hos Jacob Iakōb had given didōmi to ho his autos son hyios Joseph Iōsēph. · ho Jacob’ s Iakōb well pēgē was eimi · de there ekei. · ho · ho So oun Jesus Iēsous, weary kopiaō from ek his ho journey hodoiporia, sat kathezomai down by epi the ho well pēgē. It was eimi about hōs the sixth hektos hour hōra.

There came erchomai a woman gynē of ek · ho Samaria Samareia to draw antleō water hydōr. Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, · ho Give didōmi me egō a drink pinō.” · ho ( For gar his autos disciples mathētēs had gone aperchomai off to eis the ho town polis to hina buy agorazō food trophē.) The ho Samaritan Samaritis woman gynē said legō to him autos, · ho How pōs is it that you sy, being eimi a Jew Ioudaios, are asking for aiteō a drink pinō from para me egō, a woman gynē who is eimi from Samaria Samaritis?” ( For gar Jews Ioudaios use nothing ou in common synchraomai with Samaritans Samaritēs.) 10 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai · kai her autos, saying legō, “ If ei you had known oida the ho gift dōrea of ho God theos and kai who tis it was eimi that ho said legō to you sy, ‘ Give didōmi me egō a drink pinō,’ you sy would an have asked aiteō him autos, and kai he would an have given didōmi you sy living zaō water hydōr.” 11 The ho woman gynē said legō to him autos, “ Sir kyrios, you have echō no oute bucket antlēma and kai the ho well phrear is eimi deep bathus. How pothen then oun are you going echō to draw the ho living zaō water hydōr? · ho 12 Surely you sy are eimi not greater megas than ho our hēmeis father patēr Jacob Iakōb, are you , who hos gave didōmi us hēmeis the ho well phrear and kai drank pinō from ek it autos himself autos, as kai did · ho his autos sons hyios and kai · ho his autos flocks thremma?” 13 Jesus Iēsous replied apokrinomai, and kai said legō to her autos, “ Everyone pas who ho drinks pinō of ek · ho this houtos water hydōr will be thirsty dipsaō again palin, 14 but de whoever hos drinks pinō of ek the ho water hydōr that hos I egō will give didōmi him autos will never ou mē be thirsty dipsaō for eis all ho time aiōn, but alla the ho water hydōr that hos I will give didōmi him autos will become ginomai in en him autos a fountain pēgē of water hydōr gushing hallomai up to eis eternal aiōnios life zōē.” 15 The ho woman gynē said legō to pros him autos, “ Sir kyrios, give didōmi me egō this houtos · ho water hydōr, so hina that I will not be thirsty dipsaō or mēde have to keep coming dierchomai here enthade to draw antleō water.”

16 Jesus said legō to her autos, “ Go hypagō, call phōneō · ho your sy husband anēr, and kai come erchomai back here enthade.” 17 The ho woman gynē replied apokrinomai and kai said legō to him autos, “ I do not ou have echō a husband anēr.” Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, · ho You are right kalōs in saying legō, ‘ I do echō not ou have echō a husband anēr,’ 18 for gar you have had echō five pente husbands anēr, and kai the man hos you now nyn have echō is eimi not ou your sy husband anēr. You have spoken legō the houtos truth alēthēs.” 19 The ho woman gynē said legō to him autos, “ Sir kyrios, I can see theōreō that hoti you sy are eimi a prophet prophētēs. 20 · ho Our hēmeis fathers patēr worshiped proskyneō on en · ho this houtos mountain oros, but kai you hymeis Jews say legō that hoti the ho place topos where hopou people should dei worship proskyneō is eimi in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma.” 21 Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, · ho Believe pisteuō me egō, woman gynē, the hour hōra is coming erchomai when hote you will worship proskyneō the ho Father patēr neither oute on en · ho this houtos mountain oros nor oute in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma. 22 You hymeis Samaritans worship proskyneō what hos you do not ou know oida; we hēmeis worship proskyneō what hos we know oida, because hoti · ho salvation sōtēria is eimi from ek the ho Jews Ioudaios. 23 But alla the hour hōra is coming erchomai, and kai is eimi here nyn already , when hote · ho true alēthinos worshipers proskynētēs will worship proskyneō the ho Father patēr in en spirit pneuma and kai in truth alētheia; for gar indeed kai the ho Father patēr is seeking zēteō just toioutos such people · ho to be his autos worshipers proskyneō. 24 God theos is spirit pneuma, · ho and kai those ho who worship proskyneō him autos must dei worship proskyneō in en spirit pneuma and kai in truth alētheia.” 25 The ho woman gynē said legō to him autos, “ I know oida that hoti Messiah Messias is coming erchomai ( the ho one called legō Christ Christos). When hotan he comes erchomai, he ekeinos will explain anangellō everything hapas to us hēmeis.” 26 Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, · ho I egō, the ho one speaking laleō to you sy, am eimi he.”

27 · kai Just epi then houtos his autos disciples mathētēs came erchomai back. · ho · kai They were astonished thaumazō that hoti he was talking laleō with meta a woman gynē; however mentoi, no oudeis one said legō to her, “ What tis do you want zēteō?” or ē to him, “ Why tis are you talking laleō with meta her autos?” 28 Then oun the ho woman gynē left aphiēmi · ho her autos water hydria jar and kai went aperchomai off to eis the ho town polis. · kai She told legō the ho people anthrōpos there, 29  Come deute and see a man anthrōpos who hos told legō me egō everything pas I have ever hosos done poieō! Could mēti this houtos man be eimi the ho Messiah Christos?” 30 So they went exerchomai out of ek the ho town polis and kai made their way erchomai to pros Jesus autos.

31 In en the ho meantime metaxy the ho disciples mathētēs kept urging erōtaō Jesus autos, saying legō, “ Rabbi rhabbi, take esthiō something to eat .” 32 But de he ho said legō to them autos, “ I egō have echō food brōsis to eat esthiō of which hos you hymeis know oida nothing ou.” 33 Then oun the ho disciples mathētēs began to say legō to pros one allēlōn another , “ No one tis has brought pherō him autos something to eat esthiō, have they?” 34 Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho My emos food brōma is eimi to hina do poieō the ho will thelēma of ho him who sent pempō me egō and kai to accomplish teleioō the ho work ergon he autos gave me to do. 35 Do you hymeis not ou say legō, ‘ There are eimi still eti four tetramēnos months and kai then comes erchomai the ho harvest therismos’? Look idou, I tell legō you hymeis, lift epairō up · ho your hymeis eyes ophthalmos and kai look theaomai at the ho fields chōra; they are eimi white leukos, ready for pros harvest therismos. 36 The ho reaper therizō is lambanō already receiving lambanō wages misthos and kai gathering synagō a crop karpos for eis eternal aiōnios life zōē, so hina that the ho sower speirō and kai the ho reaper therizō may rejoice chairō together homou. 37 For gar in en this houtos the ho saying logos is eimi true alēthinos, ‘ One allos · ho sows speirō and kai another allos · ho reaps therizō.’ 38 I egō sent apostellō you hymeis to reap therizō a crop for which hos you hymeis did not ou labor kopiaō. Others allos have done kopiaō the hard work , and kai you hymeis have reaped the benefits eiserchomai of eis · ho their autos labor kopos.”

39 Many polys of the ho Samaritans Samaritēs from ek · de · ho that ekeinos town polis believed pisteuō in eis him autos because dia of what ho the ho woman gynē had said logos when she testified martyreō, “ He told legō me egō everything pas that hos I ever did poieō.” 40 When hōs therefore oun the ho Samaritans Samaritēs came erchomai to pros him autos, they urged erōtaō him autos to stay menō with para them autos. · kai He stayed menō there ekei for two dyo days hēmera. 41 and kai many polys more polys believed pisteuō because dia of what ho they heard logos from him autos. 42 They said legō to the ho woman gynē, “ No longer ouketi is it because dia of what ho you sos said lalia that we believe pisteuō, for gar we have heard akouō him for ourselves autos, and kai we know oida that hoti this houtos man truly alēthōs is eimi the ho Savior sōtēr of the ho world kosmos.”

43 Two dyo days hēmera later meta · de · ho Jesus left exerchomai from there ekeithen and went to eis · ho Galilee Galilaia 44 ( for gar Jesus Iēsous himself autos had testified martyreō that hoti a prophet prophētēs has echō no ou honor timē in en · ho his own idios country patris). 45 When hote he arrived erchomai in eis · ho Galilee Galilaia, the ho Galileans Galilaios welcomed dechomai him autos, having seen horaō all pas that hosos he had done poieō in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma during en the ho feast heortē ( for gar they autos too kai had gone erchomai to eis the ho feast heortē).

46 So oun Jesus came erchomai again palin to eis · ho Cana Kana in ho Galilee Galilaia where hopou he had made poieō the ho water hydōr wine oinos. Now kai in en Capernaum Kapharnaoum there was eimi a certain tis officer basilikos in the royal service whose hos · ho son hyios was ill astheneō. 47 When this houtos man heard akouō that hoti Jesus Iēsous had arrived hēkō in eis Galilee Galilaia from ek · ho Judea Ioudaia, · ho he went aperchomai to pros him autos and kai begged erōtaō him to hina come katabainō down and kai heal iaomai his autos · ho son hyios; for gar he was mellō at the point of death apothnēskō. 48 Jesus Iēsous therefore oun said legō · ho to pros him autos, “ Unless ean mē you people see signs sēmeion and kai wonders teras, you will never ou mē believe pisteuō!” 49 The ho officer basilikos said legō to pros him autos, “ Sir kyrios, come katabainō down before prin my egō little boy paidion dies apothnēskō.” · ho 50 Jesus Iēsous replied legō to him autos, · ho Go poreuō, · ho your sy son hyios lives zaō.” The ho man anthrōpos believed pisteuō the ho word logos that hos Jesus Iēsous spoke legō to him autos, · ho and kai he set poreuō off for home. 51 While he autos was still ēdē · de on his way down katabainō · ho his autos servants met hypantaō him autos and told legō him that hoti · ho his autos son pais was living zaō. 52 So oun he asked pynthanomai them autos what ho time hōra it was when en hos his son got echō better kompsoteron, and oun they said legō to him autos, “ Yesterday echthes at the seventh hebdomos hour hōra the ho fever pyretos left aphiēmi him autos.” 53 Then oun the ho father patēr realized ginōskō that hoti it was at en that ekeinos very ho hour hōra when en hos Jesus Iēsous had said legō to him autos, · ho · ho Your sy son hyios lives zaō,” and kai he autos became a believer pisteuō, as kai did · ho his autos entire holos household oikia. 54 Now de this houtos was the second deuteros sign sēmeion that Jesus Iēsous performed poieō · ho after coming erchomai from ek · ho Judea Ioudaia into eis · ho Galilee Galilaia.
