27. Just then his followers came back from town and were surprised to see him talking with a woman. But none of them asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”
28. Then the woman left her water jar and went back to town. She said to the people,
29. “Come and see a man who told me everything I ever did. Do you think he might be the Christ?”
30. So the people left the town and went to see Jesus.
31. Meanwhile, his followers were begging him, “Teacher, eat something.”
32. But Jesus answered, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33. So the followers asked themselves, “Did somebody already bring him food?”
34. Jesus said, “My food is to do what the One who sent me wants me to do and to finish his work.
