John
John 4:35–36
35Do 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 riped for harvest.
36Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
