Yohanes 4:36-38

4:36 The one who reaps receives pay ¹  and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that the one who sows and the one who reaps can rejoice together. 4:37 For in this instance the saying is true, ²  ‘One sows and another reaps.’ 4:38 I sent you to reap what you did not work for; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.”

[4:36]  ¹ tn Or “a reward”; see L&N 38.14 and 57.173. This is something of a wordplay.

[4:37]  ² tn The recitative ὅτι (Joti) after ἀληθινός (alhqino") has not been translated.
