[1] 1405    Mark vii. 31.And Jesus went out again from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the [2] sea of Galilee, towards the borders of Decapolis.  1406    Mark vii. 32.And they brought unto him one dumb and deaf, and entreated him that he would lay his hand upon him and heal [3] him.  1407    Mark vii. 33.And he drew him away from the multitude, and went away alone, and spat [4] upon his fingers, and thrust them into his ears, and touched his tongue; 1408    Mark vii. 34.and looked [5] to heaven, and sighed, and said unto him, Be opened.  1409    Mark vii. 35.And in that hour his ears [6] were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake with ease.  1410    Mark vii. 36.And Jesus charged them much that they should not tell this to any man:  but the more [7] he charged them, the more they increased in publishing, and marvelled much, 1411    Mark vii. 37.and [Arabic, p. 82] said, This man doeth everything well:  he made the deaf to hear, and those that lacked speech to speak.

[8, 9] 1412    John iv. 4.And while he was passing through the land of Samaria, 1413    John iv. 5.he came to one of the cities of the Samaritans, called Sychar, beside the field which Jacob gave to Joseph to [10] his son.  1414    John iv. 6.And there was there a spring of water of Jacob’s.  And Jesus was fatigued from the exertion of the way, and sat at the spring.  And the time was about the [11] sixth hour.1415    Lit. six hours (cf. Syr.).  1416    John iv. 7.And a woman of Samaria came to draw water; and Jesus said unto [12] her, Give me water, that I may drink.  1417    John iv. 8.And his disciples had entered into the city [13] to buy for themselves food.  1418    John iv. 9.And that Samaritan woman said unto him, How dost thou, being a Jew, ask me to give thee to drink, while I am a Samaritan woman?  [14] 1419    John iv. 10.(And the Jews mingle not with the Samaritans.1420    For the form cf. below, § 34, 40.)  Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who this is that said unto thee, Give me [15] to drink; thou wouldest ask him, and he would give thee the water of life.  1421    John iv. 11.That woman said unto him, My Lord, thou hast no bucket, and the well is deep:  from [16] whence hast thou the water of life?  1422    John iv. 12.Can it be that thou art greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well, and drank from it, and his children, and his sheep?  [17] 1423    John iv. 13.Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst [18] again:  1424    John iv. 14.but whosoever drinketh of the water which I shall give him shall not thirst for ever:  but the water which I shall give him shall be in him a spring of water springing [19] up unto eternal life.  1425    John iv. 15.That woman said unto him, My Lord, give me of this water, that [20] I may not thirst again, neither come and draw water from here.  1426    John iv. 16.Jesus said unto her, [21] [Arabic, p. 83] Go and call thy husband, and come hither.  1427    John iv. 17.She said unto him, I have no [22] husband.  1428    John iv. 18.Jesus said unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:  five husbands hast thou had, and this man whom thou hast now is not thy husband; and [23] in this thou saidst truly.  1429    John iv. 19.That woman said unto him, My Lord, I perceive thee to [24] be a prophet.  1430    John iv. 20.Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say that in Jerusalem [25] is the place in which worship must be.  1431    John iv. 21.Jesus said unto her, Woman, believe me, an hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor yet in Jerusalem, shall ye worship [26] the Father.  1432    John iv. 22.Ye worship that which ye know not:  but we worship that which [27] we know:  for salvation is of the Jews.  1433    John iv. 23.But an hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth:  and the Father also [28] seeketh such as these worshippers.  1434    John iv. 24.For God is a Spirit:  and they that worship him [29] must worship him in spirit and in truth.  1435    John iv. 25.That woman said unto him, I know that [30] the Messiah cometh:  1436    John iv. 26.and when he is come, he will teach us everything.  Jesus said unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

[31] 1437    John iv. 27.And while he was speaking, his disciples came; and they wondered how he would speak1438    Or, was speaking. with a woman; but not one of them said unto him, What seekest thou? or, [32] What1439    But see note to § 7, 38. speakest thou with her?  1440    John iv. 28.And the woman left her waterpot, and went to the [33] city, and said to the people, 1441    John iv. 29.Come, and see a man who told me all that ever I did:  [34] perhaps then he is the Messiah.  1442    John iv. 30.And people went out from the city, and came to [35] him.  1443    John iv. 31.And in the mean while his disciples besought him, and said unto him, Our [36, 37] master, eat.  1444    John iv. 32.And he said unto them, I have food to eat that ye know not.  1445    John iv. 33.And the disciples said amongst themselves, Can any one have brought him aught to eat?1446    The text is uncertain.  [38] 1447    John iv. 34.Jesus said unto them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish [39] [Arabic, p. 84] his work.  1448    John iv. 35.Said ye not that after four months cometh the harvest? behold, I therefore say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and behold the lands, [40] that they have become white, and the harvest is already come.1449    Or, come beforehand.  1450    John iv. 36.And he that reapeth receiveth his wages, and gathereth the fruit of eternal life;1451    So in the Arabic, contrary to the usual practice of this writer (cf. § 6, 19). and the sower and [41] the reaper rejoice together.  1452    John iv. 37.For in this is found the word of truth, One soweth, and [42] another reapeth.  1453    John iv. 38.And I sent you to reap that in which ye have not laboured:  others laboured, and ye have entered on their labour.

[43] 1454    John iv. 39.And from that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the words [44] of that woman, who testified and said, He told me all that ever I did.  1455    John iv. 40.And when those Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them; and he [45, 46] abode with them two days.  1456    John iv. 41.And many believed in him because of his word; 1457    John iv. 42.and they said to that woman, Now not because of thy saying have we believed in him:  we have heard and known that this truly is the Messiah, the Saviour of the world.

[47, 48] 1458    John iv. 43.And after two days Jesus went out thence and departed to Galilee.  1459    John iv. 44.And Jesus [49] testified that a prophet is not honoured in his own city.  1460    John iv. 45a.And when he came to Galilee, the Galilæans received him.
