11. “Sir,” said the woman, “You don’t even have a bucket, and the well is deep. So where do You get this ‘living water’?
12. You aren’t greater than our father Jacob, are You? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and livestock.”
13. Jesus said, “Everyone who drinks from this water will get thirsty again.
14. But whoever drinks from the water that I will give him will never get thirsty again — ever! In fact, the water I will give him will become a well of water springing up within him for eternal life.”
15. “Sir,” the woman said to Him, “give me this water so I won’t get thirsty and come here to draw water.”
16. “Go call your husband,” He told her, “and come back here.”
17. “I don’t have a husband,” she answered.“You have correctly said, ‘I don’t have a husband,’ ” Jesus said.
