Give me to drink.

How is it that thou, a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? The Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him and he would have given thee living water.

Sir, thou has nothing to draw with. The well is deep. From whence then hast thou this living water?

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank thereof himself, and his children and his cattle? Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again, but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst. The water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

Sir, give me of this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

I have no husband. Thou hast well said, I have no husband, for thou hast had five husbands. And he whom thou now hast is not thy husband. In that, saidst thou truly.

Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain. And ye say that it is in Jerusalem that men ought to worship. Woman, believe me, the hour cometh when you shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what. We know what we worship. And salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

God is a spirit, and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

I know that Messiah cometh, which is called Christ. And when he is come, he will tell us all things. I that speak unto thee am he.
