27Just then His disciples returned and were surprised that He was speaking with a woman. But no one asked Him, “What do You want from her?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
28Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,
29“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”
30So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.
31Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
32But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
34Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
35Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
36Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
37For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
38I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others have done the hard work, and now you have taken up their labor.”
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
40So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
41And many more believed because of His message.
42They said to the woman, “We now believe not only because of your words; we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man truly is the Savior of the world.”
