:26:01
and Jesus, tired out by the trip...
:26:03
sat down by the well.
:26:05
It was about noon.
:26:25
A Samaritan woman
came to draw some water.

:26:33
Give me a drink of water.
:26:35
His disciples had gone into town
to buy food.

:26:38
You're a Jew, and I'm a Samaritan.
:26:42
So how can you ask me for a drink?
:26:45
Jews will not use the same cups and bowls
that Samaritans use.

:26:48
If you only knew what God gives...
:26:50
and who it is that is asking you for a drink,
you would ask him...

:26:54
and he would give you life-giving water.
:26:56
Sir, you don't have a bucket,
and the well is deep.

:26:59
Where would you get that life-giving water?
:27:02
It was our ancestor Jacob
who gave us this well.

:27:05
He and his children and his flocks
all drank from it.

:27:09
You don't claim to be greater than Jacob,
do you?

:27:12
Those who drink this water
will get thirsty again...

:27:16
but those who drink the water
that I give them will never be thirsty again.

:27:20
The water that I will give them
will become, in them, a spring...

:27:23
which will provide them with
life-giving water, and give them eternal life.

:27:27
Sir, give me that water.
Then I will never be thirsty again...

:27:31
nor will I have to come here to draw water.
:27:36
Go and call your husband, and come back.
:27:41
I don't have a husband.
:27:43
You're right when you say
you don't have a husband.

:27:45
You've been married to five men...
:27:47
and the man you live with now
is not really your husband.

:27:51
You've told me the truth.
:27:54
I see you are a prophet, sir.
:27:57
My Samaritan ancestors worshipped God
on this mountain...
