1 Kad razume, dakle, Gospod da su čuli fariseji da Isus više učenika dobija i krštava nego Jovan
1 Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 (Isus pak sam ne krštavaše nego učenici Njegovi),
2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),
3 ostavi Judeju, i otide opet u Galileju.
3 he left Judea and departed into Galilee.
4 A valjalo Mu je proći kroz Samariju.
4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
5 Tako dođe u grad samarijski koji se zove Sihar, blizu sela koje dade Jakov Josifu, sinu svom.
5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 A onde beše izvor Jakovljev; i Isus umoran od puta seđaše na izvoru; a beše oko šestog sahata.
6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 Dođe žena Samarjanka da zahvati vode; reče joj Isus: Daj mi da pijem.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
8 (Jer učenici Njegovi behu otišli u grad da kupe jela.)
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Reče Mu žena Samarjanka; kako ti, Jevrejin budući, možeš iskati od mene, žene Samarjanke, da piješ? Jer se Jevreji ne mešaju sa Samarjanima.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Odgovori Isus i reče joj: Da ti znaš dar Božji, i ko je taj koji ti govori: Daj mi da pijem, ti bi iskala u Njega i dao bi ti vodu živu.
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”
11 Reče Mu žena: Gospode! Ni zahvatiti nemaš čim, a studenac je dubok; odakle ćeš dakle uzeti vodu živu?
11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?
12 Eda li si ti veći od našeg oca Jakova, koji nam dade ovaj studenac, i on iz njega pijaše i sinovi njegovi i stoka njegova?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”
13 Odgovori Isus i reče joj: Svaki koji pije od ove vode opet će ožedneti;
13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
14 a koji pije od vode koju ću mu ja dati neće ožedneti doveka; nego voda što ću mu ja dati biće u njemu izvor vode koja teče u život večni.
14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
15 Reče Mu žena: Gospode! Daj mi te vode da ne žednim niti da dolazim ovamo na vodu.
15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”
16 Reče joj Isus: Idi zovni muža svog, i dođi ovamo.
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
17 Odgovori žena i reče Mu: Nemam muža. Reče joj Isus: Dobro si kazala: Nemam muža;
17 The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’
18 jer si pet muževa imala, i sad koga imaš nije ti muž; to si pravo kazala.
18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”
19 Reče Mu žena: Gospode! Vidim da si ti prorok.
19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Oci naši moliše se Bogu na ovoj gori, a vi kažete da je u Jerusalimu mesto gde se treba moliti.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”
21 Reče joj Isus: Ženo! Veruj mi da ide vreme kad se nećete moliti Ocu ni na ovoj gori ni u Jerusalimu.
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 Vi ne znate čemu se molite; a mi znamo čemu se molimo: jer je spasenje od Jevreja.
22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
23 Ali ide vreme, i već je nastalo, kad će se pravi bogomoljci moliti Ocu duhom i istinom, jer Otac hoće takve bogomoljce.
23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.
24 Bog je Duh; i koji Mu se mole, duhom i istinom treba da se mole.
24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 Reče Mu žena: Znam da će doći Mesija koji se zove Hristos, kad On dođe kazaće nam sve.
25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”
26 Reče joj Isus: Ja sam koji s tobom govorim.
26 Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”
27 I tada dođoše učenici Njegovi, i čuđahu se gde govoraše sa ženom; ali nijedan ne reče: Šta hoćeš? Ili šta govoriš s njom?
27 Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”
28 A žena ostavi sudove svoje i otide u grad i reče ljudima:
28 So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,
29 Hodite da vidite čoveka koji mi kaza sve što sam učinila: da nije to Hristos?
29 “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”
30 Iziđoše, dakle, iz grada i pođoše k Njemu.
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
31 A učenici Njegovi moljahu Ga, međutim, govoreći: Ravi! Jedi.
31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 A On im reče: Ja imam jelo da jedem za koje vi ne znate.
32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”
33 Tada učenici govorahu među sobom: Već ako Mu ko donese da jede?
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”
34 A On im reče: Jelo je moje da izvršim volju Onog koji me je poslao, i da svršim Njegov posao.
34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.
35 Ne kažete li vi da su još četiri meseca pa će žetva prispeti? Eto, velim vam: podignite oči svoje i vidite njive kako su već žute za žetvu.
35 Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest’? Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.
36 I koji žnje prima platu, i sabira rod za život večni, da se raduju zajedno i koji seje i koji žnje;
36 He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
37 jer je u tom istinita beseda da je drugi koji seje a drugi koji žnje.
37 For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’
38 Ja vas poslah da žnjete gde se vi ne trudiste; drugi se trudiše, a vi u posao njihov uđoste.
38 I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 I iz grada onog mnogi od Samarjana verovaše Ga za besedu žene koja svedočaše: Kaza mi sve što sam učinila.
39 From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”
40 Kad dođoše, dakle, Samarjani k Njemu, moljahu Ga da bi ostao kod njih; i onde osta dva dana.
40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.
41 I mnogo ih više verova za Njegovu besedu.
41 Many more believed because of his word.
42 A ženi govorahu: Sad ne verujemo više za tvoju besedu, jer sami čusmo i poznasmo da je Ovaj zaista spas svetu, Hristos.
42 They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
43 A posle dva dana iziđe odande, i otide u Galileju:
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.
44 Jer sam Isus svedočaše da prorok na svojoj postojbini nema časti.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
45 A kad dođe u Galileju, primiše Ga Galilejci koji behu videli sve što učini u Jerusalimu na praznik; jer i oni idoše na praznik.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.
46 Dođe pak Isus opet u Kanu galilejsku, gde pretvori vodu u vino. I beše neki carev čovek čiji sin bolovaše u Kapernaumu.
46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 Ovaj čuvši da Isus dođe iz Judeje u Galileju, dođe k Njemu i moljaše Ga da siđe i da mu isceli sina; jer beše na samrti.
47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.
48 I reče mu Isus: Ako ne vidite znaka i čudesa, ne verujete.
48 Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”
49 Reče Mu carev čovek: Gospode! Siđi dok nije umrlo dete moje.
49 The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”
50 Reče mu Isus: Idi, sin je tvoj zdrav. I verova čovek reči koju mu reče Isus, i pođe.
50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
51 I odmah kad on silažaše, gle, sretoše ga sluge njegove i javiše mu govoreći: Sin je tvoj zdrav.
51 As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”
52 Tada pitaše za sahat u koji mu lakše bi; i kazaše mu: Juče u sedmom sahatu pusti ga groznica.
52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.”
53 Tada razume otac da beše onaj sahat u koji mu reče Isus: Sin je tvoj zdrav. I verova on i sva kuća njegova.
53 So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.
54 Ovo opet drugo čudo učini Isus kad dođe iz Judeje u Galileju.
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
It is nothing new to your ears, beloved, that the Evangelist John, like an eagle, takes a loftier flight, and soars above the dark mist of earth, to gaze with steadier eyes upon the light of truth.

Scripture calls the grace of the Spirit sometimes "Fire," sometimes "Water," showing that these names are not descriptive of its essence, but of its operation; for the Spirit, being Invisible and Simple, cannot be made up of different substances. Now the one John declares, speaking thus, "He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with Fire" ( Matt. iii.

Then, again, withdrawing Himself [from Judæa], He is found in Samaria; on which occasion, too, He conversed with the Samaritan woman, and while at a distance, cured the son of the centurion by a word, saying, "Go thy way, thy son liveth." Afterwards He went up, the second time, to observe the festival day of the passover in Jerusalem; on …

He, for example, who is set down in John, is for dragging Him unto his house, and saith, "Come down, for my child is ready to die." But not so this man; rather he is far superior both to him, and to those who let down the bed through the roof.
