1 Когда же узнал Иисус о дошедшем до фарисеев слухе, что Он более приобретает учеников и крестит, нежели Иоанн, —
1 Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 хотя Сам Иисус не крестил, а ученики Его, —
2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),
3 то оставил Иудею и пошел опять в Галилею.
3 he left Judea and departed into Galilee.
4 Надлежало же Ему проходить через Самарию.
4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
5 Итак приходит Он в город Самарийский, называемый Сихарь, близ участка земли, данного Иаковом сыну своему Иосифу.
5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Там был колодезь Иаковлев. Иисус, утрудившись от пути, сел у колодезя. Было около шестого часа.
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 Приходит женщина из Самарии почерпнуть воды. Иисус говорит ей: дай Мне пить.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
8 Ибо ученики Его отлучились в город купить пищи.
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Женщина Самарянская говорит Ему: как ты, будучи Иудей, просишь пить у меня, Самарянки? ибо Иудеи с Самарянами не сообщаются.
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 Иисус сказал ей в ответ: если бы ты знала дар Божий и Кто говорит тебе: дай Мне пить, то ты сама просила бы у Него, и Он дал бы тебе воду живую.
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 Женщина говорит Ему: господин! тебе и почерпнуть нечем, а колодезь глубок; откуда же у тебя вода живая?
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 Неужели ты больше отца нашего Иакова, который дал нам этот колодезь и сам из него пил, и дети его, и скот его?
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 Иисус сказал ей в ответ: всякий, пьющий воду сию, возжаждет опять,
13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
14 а кто будет пить воду, которую Я дам ему, тот не будет жаждать вовек; но вода, которую Я дам ему, сделается в нем источником воды, текущей в жизнь вечную.
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 Женщина говорит Ему: господин! дай мне этой воды, чтобы мне не иметь жажды и не приходить сюда черпать.
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 Иисус говорит ей: пойди, позови мужа твоего и приди сюда.
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
17 Женщина сказала в ответ: у меня нет мужа. Иисус говорит ей: правду ты сказала, что у тебя нет мужа,
17 The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’
18 ибо у тебя было пять мужей, и тот, которого ныне имеешь, не муж тебе; это справедливо ты сказала.
18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”
19 Женщина говорит Ему: Господи! вижу, что Ты пророк.
19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Отцы наши поклонялись на этой горе, а вы говорите, что место, где должно поклоняться, находится в Иерусалиме.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”
21 Иисус говорит ей: поверь Мне, что наступает время, когда и не на горе сей, и не в Иерусалиме будете поклоняться Отцу.
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 Вы не знаете, чему кланяетесь, а мы знаем, чему кланяемся, ибо спасение от Иудеев.
22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
23 Но настанет время и настало уже, когда истинные поклонники будут поклоняться Отцу в духе и истине, ибо таких поклонников Отец ищет Себе.
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 Бог есть дух, и поклоняющиеся Ему должны поклоняться в духе и истине.
24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 Женщина говорит Ему: знаю, что придет Мессия, то есть Христос; когда Он придет, то возвестит нам все.
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 Иисус говорит ей: это Я, Который говорю с тобою.
26 Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”
27 В это время пришли ученики Его, и удивились, что Он разговаривал с женщиною; однакож ни один не сказал: чего Ты требуешь? или: о чем говоришь с нею?
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 Тогда женщина оставила водонос свой и пошла в город, и говорит людям:
28 So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,
29 пойдите, посмотрите Человека, Который сказал мне все, что я сделала: не Он ли Христос?
29 “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”
30 Они вышли из города и пошли к Нему.
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
31 Между тем ученики просили Его, говоря: Равви! ешь.
31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 Но Он сказал им: у Меня есть пища, которой вы не знаете.
32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”
33 Посему ученики говорили между собою: разве кто принес Ему есть?
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”
34 Иисус говорит им: Моя пища есть творить волю Пославшего Меня и совершить дело Его.
34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.
35 Не говорите ли вы, что еще четыре месяца, и наступит жатва? А Я говорю вам: возведите очи ваши и посмотрите на нивы, как они побелели и поспели к жатве.
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 Жнущий получает награду и собирает плод в жизнь вечную, так что и сеющий и жнущий вместе радоваться будут,
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 ибо в этом случае справедливо изречение: один сеет, а другой жнет.
37 For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’
38 Я послал вас жать то, над чем вы не трудились: другие трудились, а вы вошли в труд их.
38 I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 И многие Самаряне из города того уверовали в Него по слову женщины, свидетельствовавшей, что Он сказал ей все, что она сделала.
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 И потому, когда пришли к Нему Самаряне, то просили Его побыть у них; и Он пробыл там два дня.
40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.
41 И еще большее число уверовали по Его слову.
41 Many more believed because of his word.
42 А женщине той говорили: уже не по твоим речам веруем, ибо сами слышали и узнали, что Он истинно Спаситель мира, Христос.
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 По прошествии же двух дней Он вышел оттуда и пошел в Галилею,
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.
44 ибо Сам Иисус свидетельствовал, что пророк не имеет чести в своем отечестве.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
45 Когда пришел Он в Галилею, то Галилеяне приняли Его, видев все, что Он сделал в Иерусалиме в праздник, — ибо и они ходили на праздник.
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 Итак Иисус опять пришел в Кану Галилейскую, где претворил воду в вино. В Капернауме был некоторый царедворец, у которого сын был болен.
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 Он, услышав, что Иисус пришел из Иудеи в Галилею, пришел к Нему и просил Его придти и исцелить сына его, который был при смерти.
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 Иисус сказал ему: вы не уверуете, если не увидите знамений и чудес.
48 Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”
49 Царедворец говорит Ему: Господи! приди, пока не умер сын мой.
49 The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”
50 Иисус говорит ему: пойди, сын твой здоров. Он поверил слову, которое сказал ему Иисус, и пошел.
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 На дороге встретили его слуги его и сказали: сын твой здоров.
51 As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”
52 Он спросил у них: в котором часу стало ему легче? Ему сказали: вчера в седьмом часу горячка оставила его.
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 Из этого отец узнал, что это был тот час, в который Иисус сказал ему: сын твой здоров, и уверовал сам и весь дом его.
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 Это второе чудо сотворил Иисус, возвратившись из Иудеи в Галилею.
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.
