¹³ Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again [^Cbecause physical water only temporarily satisfies thirst], ¹⁴ but whoever drinks the water I give will never be thirsty [^Cbecause spiritual renewal/eternal life is forever]. [^LBut; Indeed] The water I give will become a spring of water gushing up inside that person, giving eternal life [Is. 12:3; 49:10; 55:1–3; Rev. 7:16].”

¹⁵ The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so I will never be thirsty again and will not have to come back here to ·get [draw] more water.” [^CHer response indicates she does not understand.]
