Amplified Bible

John 4:36-42 Amplified Bible (AMP)

36. Already the reaper is getting his wages [he who does the cutting now has his reward], for he is gathering fruit (crop) unto life eternal, so that he who does the planting and he who does the reaping may rejoice together.

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

38. I sent you to reap a crop for which you have not toiled. Other men have labored and you have stepped in to reap the results of their work.

39. Now numerous Samaritans from that town believed in and trusted in Him because of what the woman said when she declared and testified, He told me everything that I ever did.

40. So when the Samaritans arrived, they asked Him to remain with them, and He did stay there two days.

41. Then many more believed in and adhered to and relied on Him because of His personal message [what He Himself said].

42. And they told the woman, Now we no longer believe (trust, have faith) just because of what you said; for we have heard Him ourselves [personally], and we know that He truly is the Savior of the world, the Christ.
