John 4:36-38
New American Standard Bible
36 Already the one who reaps is receiving (A)wages and is gathering (B)fruit for (C)eternal life, so that the one who sows and the one who reaps may rejoice together. 37 For in this case the saying is true: ‘(D)One sows and another reaps.’ 38 I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have [a]come into their labor.”

John 4:36-38
New International Version
36 Even now the one who reaps draws a wage and harvests(A) a crop for eternal life,(B) so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. 37 Thus the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’(C) is true. 38 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor.”
