36 What saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me? and where I am, can ye not come?
37 [a]Now in the [b]last and (A)great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth in me, (B)as saith the [c]Scripture, out of his belly shall flow rivers of water of life.
