John 4:25-32 Common English Bible (CEB)

25. The woman said, "I know that the Messiah is coming, the one who is called the Christ. When he comes, he will teach everything to us."

26. Jesus said to her, "I Am—the one who speaks with you."

27. Just then, Jesus’ disciples arrived and were shocked that he was talking with a woman. But no one asked, "What do you want?" or "Why are you talking with her?"

28. The woman put down her water jar and went into the city. She said to the people,

29. "Come and see a man who has told me everything I’ve done! Could this man be the Christ?"

30. They left the city and were on their way to see Jesus.

31. In the meantime the disciples spoke to Jesus, saying, "Rabbi, eat."

32. Jesus said to them, "I have food to eat that you don’t know about."
