John 4:32–42
32 But he said, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”
33 The disciples said to one another, “Could someone have brought him something to eat?”
34 “My food is to do the will of hima who sent meb and to finish his work,”c Jesus told them. 35 “Don’t you say, ‘There are still four more months, and then comes the harvest’? Listen to what I’m telling you: OpenA your eyes and look at the fields, because they are readyB for harvest. 36 The reaper is already receiving pay and gathering fruit for eternal life,d so that the sower and reaper can rejoice together. 37 For in this case the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’e 38 I sent you to reap what you didn’t labor for; others have labored, and you have benefited fromC their labor.”
39 Now many Samaritansf from that town believed in him because of what the woman saidD when she testified,g “He told me everything I ever did.” 40 So when the Samaritans came to him,h they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days. 41 Many more believed because of what he said.E 42 And they told the woman, “We no longer believe because of what you said, since we have heard for ourselves and know that this really is the Saviori of the world.”F
