John 4:27–38

²⁷And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he spoke with a woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her? ²⁸The woman then left her waterpot and went away into the city, and says to the men, ²⁹Come, see a man who told me all things I had ever done: is not he the Christ? ³⁰They went out of the city and came to him. ³¹But meanwhile the disciples asked him saying, Rabbi, eat. ³²But he said to them, I have food to eat which ye do not know. ³³The disciples therefore said to one another, Has any one brought him anything to eat? ³⁴Jesus says to them, My food is that I should do the will of him that has sent me, and that I should finish his work. ³⁵Do not ye say, that there are yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest. ³⁶He that reaps receives wages and gathers fruit unto life eternal, that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together. ³⁷For in this is verified the true saying, It is one who sows and another who reaps. ³⁸I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others have laboured, and ye have entered into their labours.
