John 4:27–38

²⁷At this point His ^adisciples came, and they were amazed that He had been speaking with a woman, yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why do You speak with her?”

²⁸So the woman left her waterpot, and went into the city and said to the men,

²⁹“Come, see a man ^awho told me all the things that I have done; ^bthis is not ¹the Christ, is it?”

³⁰They went out of the city, and were coming to Him.

³¹Meanwhile the disciples were urging Him, saying, “^aRabbi, eat.”

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

³³So the ^adisciples were saying to one another, “No one brought Him anything to eat, did he?”

³⁴Jesus said to them, “My food is to ^ado the will of Him who sent Me and to ^baccomplish His work.

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

³⁶“Already he who reaps is receiving ^awages and is gathering ^bfruit for ^clife eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

³⁷“For in this case the saying is true, ‘^aOne sows and another reaps.’

³⁸“I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.”
