John 4:10–18
10Jesus answered her,“If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”↗
11The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?↗
12Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”↗
13Jesus answered her,“Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,↗
14but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”↗
15The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”↗
16Jesus said to her,“Go, call your husband, and come here.”↗
17The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her,“You said well, ‘I have no husband,’↗
18for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”↗
