John 4:37

37 For the saying is true, "Someone plants, someone else reaps.'

John 4:37 In-Context

35 You have a saying, "Four more months and then the harvest.' But I tell you, take a good look at the fields; the crops are now ripe and ready to be harvested!
36 The one who reaps the harvest is being paid and gathers the crops for eternal life; so the one who plants and the one who reaps will be glad together.
37 For the saying is true, "Someone plants, someone else reaps.'
38 I have sent you to reap a harvest in a field where you did not work; others worked there, and you profit from their work."
39 Many of the Samaritans in that town believed in Jesus because the woman had said, "He told me everything I have ever done."
