13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but hwhoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him iwill become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

15 jThe woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”

16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

17 The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”

Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”

19 The woman said to Him, “Sir, kI perceive that You are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on lthis mountain, and you Jews say that in mJerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”

21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming nwhen you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship owhat you do not know; we know what we worship, for psalvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will qworship the Father in rspirit sand truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 tGod is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

25 The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah uis coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, vHe will tell us all things.”

26 Jesus said to her, w“I who speak to you am He.”
