Common English Bible

³⁸    All who believe in me should drink!
    As the scriptures said concerning me,^[a]
        Rivers of living water will flow out from within him.”

³⁹Jesus said this concerning the Spirit. Those who believed in him would soon receive the Spirit, but they hadn’t experienced the Spirit yet since Jesus hadn’t yet been glorified.

⁴⁰When some in the crowd heard these words, they said, “This man is truly the prophet.”
