1Ut ergo cognovit Jesus quia audierunt pharisæi quod Jesus plures discipulos facit, et baptizat, quam Joannes
1When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John
2(quamquam Jesus non baptizaret, sed discipuli ejus),
2(although it was not Jesus who baptized, but His disciples),
3reliquit Judæam, et abiit iterum in Galilæam.
3He left Judea and returned to Galilee.
4Oportebat autem eum transire per Samariam.
4Now He had to pass through Samaria.
5Venit ergo in civitatem Samariæ, quæ dicitur Sichar, juxta prædium quod dedit Jacob Joseph filio suo.
5So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
6Erat autem ibi fons Jacob. Jesus ergo fatigatus ex itinere, sedebat sic supra fontem. Hora erat quasi sexta.
6Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7Venit mulier de Samaria haurire aquam. Dicit ei Jesus: Da mihi bibere.
7When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”
8(Discipuli enim ejus abierant in civitatem ut cibos emerent.)
8(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9Dicit ergo ei mulier illa Samaritana: Quomodo tu, Judæus cum sis, bibere a me poscis, quæ sum mulier Samaritana? non enim coutuntur Judæi Samaritanis.
9“You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
10Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Si scires donum Dei, et quis est qui dicit tibi: Da mihi bibere, tu forsitan petisses ab eo, et dedisset tibi aquam vivam.
10Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
11Dicit ei mulier: Domine, neque in quo haurias habes, et puteus altus est: unde ergo habes aquam vivam?
11“Sir,” the woman replied, “You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where then will You get this living water?
12Numquid tu major es patre nostro Jacob, qui dedit nobis puteum, et ipse ex eo bibit, et filii ejus, et pecora ejus?
12Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock?”
13Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Omnis qui bibit ex aqua hac, sitiet iterum; qui autem biberit ex aqua quam ego dabo ei, non sitiet in æternum:
13Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.
14sed aqua quam ego dabo ei, fiet in eo fons aquæ salientis in vitam æternam.
14But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.”
15Dicit ad eum mulier: Domine, da mihi hanc aquam, ut non sitiam, neque veniam huc haurire.
15The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
16Dicit ei Jesus: Vade, voca virum tuum, et veni huc.
16Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
17Respondit mulier, et dixit: Non habeo virum. Dicit ei Jesus: Bene dixisti, quia non habeo virum;
17“I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her, “You are correct to say that you have no husband.
18quinque enim viros habuisti, et nunc, quem habes, non est tuus vir: hoc vere dixisti.
18In fact, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. You have spoken truthfully.”
19Dicit ei mulier: Domine, video quia propheta es tu.
19“Sir,” the woman said, “I see that You are a prophet.
20Patres nostri in monte hoc adoraverunt, et vos dicitis, quia Jerosolymis est locus ubi adorare oportet.
20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21Dicit ei Jesus: Mulier, crede mihi, quia venit hora, quando neque in monte hoc, neque in Jerosolymis adorabitis Patrem.
21“Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22Vos adoratis quod nescitis: nos adoramus quod scimus, quia salus ex Judæis est.
22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.
23Sed venit hora, et nunc est, quando veri adoratores adorabunt Patrem in spiritu et veritate. Nam et Pater tales quærit, qui adorent eum.
23But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.
24Spiritus est Deus: et eos qui adorant eum, in spiritu et veritate oportet adorare.
24God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”
25Dicit ei mulier: Scio quia Messias venit (qui dicitur Christus): cum ergo venerit ille, nobis annuntiabit omnia.
25The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”
26Dicit ei Jesus: Ego sum, qui loquor tecum.
26Jesus answered, “I who speak to you am He.”
27Et continuo venerunt discipuli ejus, et mirabantur quia cum muliere loquebatur. Nemo tamen dixit: Quid quæris? aut, Quid loqueris cum ea?
27Just then His disciples returned and were surprised that He was speaking with a woman. But no one asked Him, “What do You want from her?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
28Reliquit ergo hydriam suam mulier, et abiit in civitatem, et dicit illis hominibus:
28Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,
29Venite, et videte hominem qui dixit mihi omnia quæcumque feci: numquid ipse est Christus?
29“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”
30Exierunt ergo de civitate et veniebant ad eum.
30So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.
31Interea rogabant eum discipuli, dicentes: Rabbi, manduca.
31Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
32Ille autem dicit eis: Ego cibum habeo manducare, quem vos nescitis.
32But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33Dicebant ergo discipuli ad invicem: Numquid aliquis attulit ei manducare?
33So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
34Dicit eis Jesus: Meus cibus est ut faciam voluntatem ejus qui misit me, ut perficiam opus ejus.
34Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
35Nonne vos dicitis quod adhuc quatuor menses sunt, et messis venit? Ecce dico vobis: levate oculos vestros, et videte regiones, quia albæ sunt jam ad messem.
35Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
36Et qui metit, mercedem accipit, et congregat fructum in vitam æternam: ut et qui seminat, simul gaudeat, et qui metit.
36Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
37In hoc enim est verbum verum: quia alius est qui seminat, et alius est qui metit.
37For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
38Ego misi vos metere quod vos non laborastis: alii laboraverunt, et vos in labores eorum introistis.
38I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others have done the hard work, and now you have taken up their labor.”
39Ex civitate autem illa multi crediderunt in eum Samaritanorum, propter verbum mulieris testimonium perhibentis: Quia dixit mihi omnia quæcumque feci.
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
40Cum venissent ergo ad illum Samaritani, rogaverunt eum ut ibi maneret. Et mansit ibi duos dies.
40So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
41Et multo plures crediderunt in eum propter sermonem ejus.
41And many more believed because of His message.
42Et mulieri dicebant: Quia jam non propter tuam loquelam credimus: ipsi enim audivimus, et scimus quia hic est vere Salvator mundi.
42They said to the woman, “We now believe not only because of your words; we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man truly is the Savior of the world.”
43Post duos autem dies exiit inde, et abiit in Galilæam.
43After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.
44Ipse enim Jesus testimonium perhibuit, quia propheta in sua patria honorem non habet.
44Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.
45Cum ergo venisset in Galilæam, exceperunt eum Galilæi, cum omnia vidissent quæ fecerat Jerosolymis in die festo: et ipsi enim venerant ad diem festum.
45Yet when He arrived, the Galileans welcomed Him. They had seen all the great things He had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they had gone there as well.
46Venit ergo iterum in Cana Galilææ, ubi fecit aquam vinum. Et erat quidam regulus, cujus filius infirmabatur Capharnaum.
46So once again He came to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.
47Hic cum audisset quia Jesus adveniret a Judæa in Galilæam, abiit ad eum, et rogabat eum ut descenderet, et sanaret filium ejus: incipiebat enim mori.
47When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was about to die.
48Dixit ergo Jesus ad eum: Nisi signa et prodigia videritis, non creditis.
48Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”
49Dicit ad eum regulus: Domine, descende priusquam moriatur filius meus.
49“Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”
50Dicit ei Jesus: Vade, filius tuus vivit. Credidit homo sermoni quem dixit ei Jesus, et ibat.
50“Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.
51Jam autem eo descendente, servi occurrerunt ei, et nuntiaverunt dicentes, quia filius ejus viveret.
51And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
52Interrogabat ergo horam ab eis in qua melius habuerit. Et dixerunt ei: Quia heri hora septima reliquit eum febris.
52So he inquired as to the hour when his son had recovered, and they told him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.”
53Cognovit ergo pater, quia illa hora erat in qua dixit ei Jesus: Filius tuus vivit; et credidit ipse et domus ejus tota.
53Then the father realized that this was the very hour in which Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” And he and all his household believed.
54Hoc iterum secundum signum fecit Jesus, cum venisset a Judæa in Galilæam.
54This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.
