Jesus answered and said to him, “ Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Jesus said to her, “ Go, call your husband, and come here.”
The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”
Jesus said to her, “ You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.
