In context
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18 For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: in that thou hast spoken truth.
19 The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship, for salvation is from the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
