27And 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? 28The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, 29Come, see a man, kwhich told me all things that ever I did: lis not this the Christ? 30Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

31In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, mMaster, neat. 32But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of. 33Therefore said the disciples one to another, oHath any man brought him ought to eat? 34Jesus saith unto them, pMy meat is qto do the will of him that sent me, and rto finish his work. 35Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, sLift up your eyes, and look on tthe fields; ufor they are white already to harvest. 36And he that reapeth receiveth xwages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both yhe that soweth and zhe that reapeth may rejoice together. 37And herein is that saying true, aOne soweth, and another reapeth. 38I sent zyou to reap bthat whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and cye are entered into their labours.
