Yochanan 4:27-42

Yochanan 4:27-42 TOJB2011

And at this very moment, the Moshiachʼs talmidim arrived, and they were marveling that he was speaking with an isha. No one said, however, What are you seeking? Or, Why do you speak with her? Therefore, the isha left her waterpot and went away into the city and says to the bnei Adam of the city, Come, see an ish who told me everything I have ever done. Surely this one is Moshiach, is he not? They came out of the city and were coming to him. Divaile (meanwhile), Moshiachʼs talmidim were asking him, Rebbe, eat. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, I have okhel (food) to eat of which you have no da'as. Therefore, Moshiachʼs talmidim were saying to one another, Surely no one brought him anything to eat? Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, My okhel (food) is that I may do the ratzon (will) of the One having sent me and may complete His ma'aseh (work). Do not say, Yet arba'ah chodashim (four months) and then comes the katzir (harvest). Hinei, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and see the sadot (fields) that they are white for the katzir (harvest). The one harvesting receives wages and gathers p'ri (fruit) unto Chayyei Olam, that the one sowing and the other one harvesting may have simcha together. For in this the saying is true, One sows and another reaps. I sent you to harvest that upon which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor. And from that city of Shomron many had emunah in him, because of the solemn dvar of the isha giving edut: He told me everything I have ever done. Then when those of Shomron came to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained with them there two yamim. And many more put their emunah [in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach], because of his dvar (word). And to the isha they were saying, No longer because of what you spoke do we have emunah (faith), for we ourselves have heard and we have da'as that his one is be'emes the Moshi'a HaOlam (the Savior, Go'el HaOlam).
