John 4:15-26

New American Standard Bible

¹⁵ The woman *said to Him, “^[a]Sir, ^(A)give me this water so that I will not be thirsty, nor come all the way here to draw water.” ¹⁶ He *said to her, “Go, call your husband and come here.” ¹⁷ The woman answered and said to Him, “I have no husband.” Jesus *said to her, “You have correctly said, ‘I have no husband’; ¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this which you have said is true.” ¹⁹ The woman *said to Him, “^[b]Sir, I perceive that You are ^(B)a prophet. ^20 (C)Our fathers worshiped on ^(D)this mountain, and yet you Jews say that ^(E)in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.” ²¹ Jesus *said to her, “Believe Me, woman, that ^[c](F)a time is coming when you will worship the Father ^(G)neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. ^22 (H)You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, because ^(I)salvation is from the Jews. ²³ But ^[d](J)a time is coming, and ^[e]even now has arrived, when the true worshipers will worship the Father ^(K)in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be ^[f]His worshipers. ²⁴ God is ^[g]spirit, and those who worship Him must worship ^(L)in spirit and truth.” ²⁵ The woman *said to Him, “I know that ^(M)Messiah is coming (^(N)He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.” ²⁶ Jesus *said to her, “^(O)I am He, the One speaking to you.”
