Jesus and the Samaritan Woman

1Now whan Iesus had knowlege, yt it was come to the eares of the Pharises, that Iesus made and baptised mo disciples the Ihon 2(howbeit Iesus himself baptysed not, but his disciples) 3he left the londe of Iewry, and departed agayne in to Galile. 4But he must nedes go thorow Samaria. 5Then came he in to a cite of Samaria, called Sichar, nye vnto ye pece of lode, yt Iacob gaue vnto Ioseph his sonne. 6And there was Iacobs well. Now whan Iesus was weerye of his iourney, he satt hi downe so vpo the well. And it was aboute the sixte houre.

7Then came there a woman of Samaria to drawe water. Iesus sayde vnto her: Geue me drynke. 8(For his disciples were gone their waye in to ye cite, to bye meate.) 9So the woman of Samaria sayde vnto him: How is it that thou axest drynke of me, seynge thou art a Iewe, and I a woman of Samaria? For the Iewes medle not with the Samaritans. 10Iesus answered, and sayde vnto her: Yf thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that sayeth vnto the, geue me drynke, thou woldest axe of him, and he wolde geue the, the water of life. 11The woman sayde vnto him: Syr, thou hast nothinge to drawe withall, and the well is depe, from whence hast thou then that water of life? 12Art thou greater then oure father Iacob, which gaue vs this well? And he himself dranke therof, and his children, and his catell. 13Iesus answered, and sayde vnto her: Who so euer drynketh of this water, shal thyrst agayne: 14But whosoeuer shal drynke of the water that I shal geue him, shal neuer be more a thyrst: but the water that I shal geue him, shalbe in him a well of water, which spryngeth vp in to euerlastinge life.

15The woman sayde vnto him: Syr, geue me that same water, that I thyrst not, nether nede to come hither to drawe. 16Iesus sayde vnto her: Go, call they hussbande, and come hither. 17The woman answered, and sayde vnto him: I haue no hussbande. 18Iesus sayde vnto her: Thou hast sayde well, I haue no hussbande: for thou hast had fyue hussbandes, and he whom thou hast now, is not thine hussbande: there saydest thou right. 19The woma sayde vnto him: Syr, I se, that thou art a prophet. 20Oure fathers worshipped vpon this mountayne, and ye saye, that at Ierusalem is the place, where men ought to worshippe. 21Iesus sayde vnto her: Woman, beleue me, the tyme commeth, that ye shal nether vpon this mountayne ner at Ierusalem worshippe the father. 22Ye wote not what ye worshippe, but we knowe what ye worshippe, for Saluacion commeth of the Iewes. 23But the tyme commeth, and is now allready, that the true worshippers shal worshippe the father in sprete and in the trueth: For the father wil haue soch so to worshippe him. 24God is a sprete, and they that worshippe him, must worshippe in sprete and in the trueth. 25The woma sayde vnto him: I wote that Messias shal come, which is called Christ. Whan he commeth, he shal tell vs all thinges. 26Iesus sayde vnto her: I that speake vnto the, am he.

The Disciples Return and Marvel

27And in the meane season came his disciples, and they marueyled that he talked with the woman. Yet sayde no man: What axest thou, or what talkest thou with her? 28Then the woman let hir pot stonde, and wente in to the cite, and sayde vnto the people: 29Come, se a man, which hath tolde me all that euer I dyd, Is not he Christ? 30Then wente they out of the cite, and came vnto him:

31In the meane whyle his disciples prayed him, and sayde: Master, eate. 32But he sayde vnto them: I haue meate to eate, that ye knowe not of 33Then sayde the disciples amoge them selues: Hath eny man brought him meate? 34Iesus sayde vnto the: My meate is this, that I do the wyll of him that sent me, and to fynish his worke. 35Saye not ye youre selues: There are yet foure monethes, and then commeth the haruest? Beholde, I saye vnto you: lift vp youre eyes, and loke vpon the felde, for it is whyte allready vnto the haruest. 36And he that reapeth, receaueth rewarde, and gathereth frute to euerlastinge life, that both he that soweth and he that reapeth, maye reioyse together. 37For herin is the prouerbe true: One soweth, another reapeth. 38I haue sent you to reape that, wheron ye bestowed no laboure. Other haue laboured, and ye are come in to their laboures.

Many Samaritans Believe

39Many Samaritans of the same cite beleued on him, for the sayenge of the woman, which testified: He hath tolde me all that euer I dyd. 40Now whan the Samaritans came to him, they besought him, that he wolde tary with them. And he abode there two dayes, 41and many mo beleued because of his worde, 42and sayde vnto the woman: We beleue now hence forth, not because of thy sayenge, we haue herde him oureselues, and knowe, that this of a trueth is Christ the Sauioure of the worlde.

Jesus Heals the Official’s Son
(Matthew 8:5–13; Luke 7:1–10)

43After two dayes he departed thence, and wente in to Galile. 44For Iesus himself testified, that a prophet is nothinge set by at home. 45Now wha he came in to Galile, the Galileas receaued him, which had sene all that he dyd at Ierusalem in the feast: for they also were come thither in the feast.

46And Iesus came agayne vnto Cana in Galile, where he turned the water vnto wyne. And there was a certayne ruler, whose sonne laye sicke at Capernaum. 47This herde that Iesus came out of Iewry in to Galile, and wente vnto him, and besought him, that he wolde come downe, and helpe his sonne, for he laye deed sicke. 48And Iesus sayde vnto him: Excepte ye se tokens and wonders, ye beleue not. 49The ruler sayde vnto him: Come downe Syr, or euer my childe dye. 50Iesus sayde vnto him: Go thy waye, thy sonne lyueth. The man beleued the worde, that Iesus sayde vnto him, and wente his waye. 51And as he was goinge downe, his seruauntes mett him, and tolde him, and sayde: Thy childe lyueth. 52Then enquyred he of them the houre, wherin he beganne to amende. And they sayde vnto him: Yesterdaye aboute the seueth houre the feuer left him. 53Then the father perceaued, that it was aboute the same houre, wherin Iesus sayde vnto him: Thy sonne lyueth. And he beleued with his whole house. 54This is now the seconde token that Iesus dyd, whan he came from Iewry in to Galile.
