John 4:31-38

Revised Geneva Translation

³¹ Meanwhile, the disciples urged Him, saying, “Master, eat.”

³² But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you know not of.”

³³ Then the disciples said between themselves, “Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?”

³⁴ Jesus said to them, “My food is that I may do the will of Him who sent Me and finish His work.

³⁵ “Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, and then comes harvest?’ Behold, I say to you lift up your eyes and look at the fields. For they are white toward harvest already.

³⁶ “And the one who reaps, receives reward, and gathers fruit to life eternal; that both the one who sows and the one who reaps might rejoice together.

³⁷ “For herein is the true saying: that one sows and another reaps.

³⁸ “I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored. Other men labored, and you have entered into their labors.”
