John 4
1 Therefore when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard, "Jesus is making and baptizing more disciples than John"
ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϭⲉ ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ϫⲉ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲣ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
2 (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples),
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲧⲟⲓ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲉ.
3 he left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.

4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲉϩⲁⲡⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ.
5 So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.
ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ϭⲉ ⲉⲩⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲥⲩⲭⲁⲣ ϩⲁⲧⲙ̅ⲡϭⲱⲙʾ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃ ⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ.
6 Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
ⲋ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲏⲅⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃ. ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲁϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ϩⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲏⲅⲏ. ⲛⲉⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϫⲡ̅ⲥⲟ ⲡⲉ.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."
ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲉⲙⲉϩⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲥ ⲧⲁⲥⲱ.
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
ⲏ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, "How can you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲉ ⲕⲟⲩⲉϣⲥⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲉⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ. ⲙⲉⲣⲉⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲱϩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲧⲏⲥ.
10 Jesus 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."
ⲓ̅ⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲱⲣⲉⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲥ ⲧⲁⲥⲱ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲛⲁⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲛϥϯ ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲟⲛϩ.
11 The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. From where do you get that living water?

12 Are you greater than our father, Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, as did his children, and his livestock?"
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲉⲛⲁⲁⲕ ⲉⲡⲉⲛⲉ͡ⲓⲱⲧ ⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧϣⲱⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲁϥⲥⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲥ̅ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϥⲧⲃ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩⲉ.
13 Jesus answered her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

15 The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I do not get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw."

16 He said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."

17 The woman answered and said to him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You said well, 'I have no husband,'

19 The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship."

21 Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father.

22 You worship that which you do not know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.

24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

25 The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah comes," (he who is called Christ). "When he has come, he will declare to us all things."
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲙⲉⲥⲥⲓⲁⲥ ⲛⲏⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉ͡ⲓ. ϥⲛⲁⲧⲁⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ.
26 Jesus said to her, "I am he, the one who speaks to you."
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ (ⲡⲉ) ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲉ.
27 At this, his disciples came. They were surprised that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, "What are you looking for?" or, "Why do you speak with her?"
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲉⲛⲧⲟⲓ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲟⲩ ⲏ ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲕϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲥ.
28 So the woman left her water pot, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

29 "Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?"

30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
ⲗ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲏⲩ ϭⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲛⲏⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ.
31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲥⲉⲡⲥⲱⲡϥ̅ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲃⲃⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲱⲙ.
32 But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you do not know about."

33 The disciples therefore said one to another, "Has anyone brought him something to eat?"

34 Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.

35 Do you not say, 'There are yet four months until the harvest?' Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes and see the fields, that they are white for harvest already.

36 He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to everlasting life; that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)

37 For in this the saying is true, 'One sows, and another reaps.'

39 From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, "He told me everything that I did."

40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.

41 Many more believed because of his word.
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲱϥ ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ.
42 They said to the woman, "Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϭⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲁⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲥⲱⲧⲏⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
43 After the two days he departed from there to Galilee.

44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and pleaded with him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was close to death.

48 Jesus therefore said to him, "Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe."

49 The nobleman said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."

50 Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your son lives." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
ⲛ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲡⲉⲕϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲟⲛϩ. ⲁϥⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲟⲟϥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ.
51 As he was now going down, his servants met him, saying that his son was alive.
ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲁⲛⲉϥϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲧⲱⲙⲛⲧ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲕϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲟⲛϩ.
52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, "Yesterday at one in the afternoon, the fever left him."

53 So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." He believed, as did his whole house.

54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.
