19. The woman saith to him, `Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet;
20. our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye--ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.'
21. Jesus saith to her, `Woman, believe me, that there doth come an hour, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father;
22. ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;
23. but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;
24. God [is] a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.'
25. The woman saith to him, `I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;'
26. Jesus saith to her, `I am [he], who am speaking to thee.'
27. And upon this came his disciples, and were wondering that with a woman he was speaking, no one, however, said, `What seekest thou?' or `Why speakest thou with her?'
