31Meanwhile the disciples were urging him, Rabbi, eat something. 32But he said to them, I have food to eat that you do not know about. 33So the disciples said to one another, Surely no one has brought him something to eat? 34Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work. 35Do you not say, Four months more, then comes the harvest? But I tell you, look around you, and see how the fields are ripe for harvesting. 36The reaper is already receiving wages and is gathering fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. 37For here the saying holds true, One sows and another reaps. 38I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.
