Bible verse
Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
John 4:36 · BSB
The verses around it, from John 4.
32 But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33 So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
34 Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
35 Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
36 Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
37 For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
38 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others have done the hard work, and now you have taken up their labor.”
39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
40 So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
