John 4:8 in Context — John 4

6 E ali estava a fonte de Jacó. Então Jesus, cansado do caminho, sentou-se assim junto à fonte; era isto quase à hora sexta.

7 Veio uma mulher de Samaria para tirar água; Disse-lhe Jesus: Dá-me de beber.

8 (Porque seus discípulos haviam ido à cidade para a comprar de comer).

9 Disse-lhe pois a mulher samaritana: Como, sendo tu judeu, me pedes de beber, que sou mulher samaritana? (Porque os judeus não se comunicam com o samaritanos.)

10 Respondeu Jesus, e disse-lhe: Se tu conhecesses o dom de Deus, e quem é o que te diz: Dá-me de beber, tu lhe pedirias, e ele te daria água viva.
