John 4:34 in Context — John 4

32 Porém ele lhes disse: Uma comida tenho que comer, que vós não sabeis.

33 Diziam, pois, os discípulos uns aos outros: Por acaso alguém lhe trouxe de comer?

34 Disse-lhes Jesus: Minha comida é fazer a vontade daquele que me enviou, e cumprir sua obra.

35 Não dizeis vós, que ainda há quatro meses até que venha a ceifa? Eis que vos digo: Levantai vossos olhos, e vede as terras; porque já estão brancas para a ceifa.

36 E o que ceifa, recebe recompensa, e junta fruto para vida eterna; para que ambos se alegrem, tanto o que semeia, quanto o que ceifa.
