| 6:1 | After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee (of Tiberias), |
| 6:2 | and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing; |
| 6:3 | and Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples, |
| 6:4 | and the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews. |
| 6:5 | Jesus then having lifted up `his' eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, `Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' -- |
| 6:6 | and this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do. |
| 6:7 | Philip answered him, `Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;' |
| 6:8 | one of his disciples -- Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter -- saith to him, |
| 6:9 | `There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?' |
| 6:10 | And Jesus said, `Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand, |
| 6:11 | and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished. |
| 6:12 | And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, `Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;' |
| 6:13 | they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten. |
| 6:14 | The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said -- `This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;' |
| 6:15 | Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone. |
| 6:16 | And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, |
| 6:17 | and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them, |
| 6:18 | the sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised, |
| 6:19 | having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid; |
| 6:20 | and he saith to them, `I am `he', be not afraid;' |
| 6:21 | they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going. |
| 6:22 | On the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one -- that into which his disciples entered -- and that Jesus went not in with his disciples into the little boat, but his disciples went away alone, |
| 6:23 | (and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks), |
| 6:24 | when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus; |
| 6:25 | and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, `Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?' |
| 6:26 | Jesus answered them and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied; |
| 6:27 | work not for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to life age-during, which the Son of Man will give to you, for him did the Father seal -- `even' God.' |
| 6:28 | They said therefore unto him, `What may we do that we may work the works of God?' |
| 6:29 | Jesus answered and said to them, `This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.' |
| 6:30 | They said therefore to him, `What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work? |
| 6:31 | our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness, according as it is having been written, Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.' |
| 6:32 | Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of the heaven; but my Father doth give you the true bread out of the heaven; |
| 6:33 | for the bread of God is that which is coming down out of the heaven, and giving life to the world.' |
| 6:34 | They said, therefore, unto him, `Sir, always give us this bread.' |
| 6:35 | And Jesus said to them, `I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst -- at any time; |
| 6:36 | but I said to you, that ye also have seen me, and ye believe not; |
| 6:37 | all that the Father doth give to me will come unto me; and him who is coming unto me, I may in no wise cast without, |
| 6:38 | because I have come down out of the heaven, not that I may do my will, but the will of Him who sent me. |
| 6:39 | `And this is the will of the Father who sent me, that all that He hath given to me I may not lose of it, but may raise it up in the last day; |
| 6:40 | and this is the will of Him who sent me, that every one who is beholding the Son, and is believing in him, may have life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day.' |
| 6:41 | The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at him, because he said, `I am the bread that came down out of the heaven;' |
| 6:42 | and they said, `Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then saith this one -- Out of the heaven I have come down?' |
| 6:43 | Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, `Murmur not one with another; |
| 6:44 | no one is able to come unto me, if the Father who sent me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day; |
| 6:45 | it is having been written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God; every one therefore who heard from the Father, and learned, cometh to me; |
| 6:46 | not that any one hath seen the Father, except he who is from God, he hath seen the Father. |
| 6:47 | `Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is believing in me, hath life age-during; |
| 6:48 | I am the bread of the life; |
| 6:49 | your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died; |
| 6:50 | this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die. |
| 6:51 | `I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live -- to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.' |
| 6:52 | The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, `How is this one able to give us `his' flesh to eat?' |
| 6:53 | Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves; |
| 6:54 | he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day; |
| 6:55 | for my flesh truly is food, and my blood truly is drink; |
| 6:56 | he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, doth remain in me, and I in him. |
| 6:57 | `According as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating me, even that one shall live because of me; |
| 6:58 | this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.' |
| 6:59 | These things he said in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum; |
| 6:60 | many, therefore, of his disciples having heard, said, `This word is hard; who is able to hear it?' |
| 6:61 | And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, `Doth this stumble you? |
| 6:62 | if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before? |
| 6:63 | the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life; |
| 6:64 | but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up, |
| 6:65 | and he said, `Because of this I have said to you -- No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.' |
| 6:66 | From this `time' many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him, |
| 6:67 | Jesus, therefore, said to the twelve, `Do ye also wish to go away?' |
| 6:68 | Simon Peter, therefore, answered him, `Sir, unto whom shall we go? thou hast sayings of life age-during; |
| 6:69 | and we have believed, and we have known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.' |
| 6:70 | Jesus answered them, `Did not I choose you -- the twelve? and of you -- one is a devil. |
| 6:71 | And he spake of Judas, Simon's `son', Iscariot, for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve. |
| 6:1 | After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. |
| 6:2 | And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. |
| 6:3 | And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. |
| 6:4 | And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. |
| 6:5 | When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? |
| 6:6 | And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. |
| 6:7 | Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. |
| 6:8 | One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him, |
| 6:9 | There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? |
| 6:10 | And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. |
| 6:11 | And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. |
| 6:12 | When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. |
| 6:13 | Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. |
| 6:14 | Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world. |
| 6:15 | When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone. |
| 6:16 | And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea, |
| 6:17 | And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them. |
| 6:18 | And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew. |
| 6:19 | So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. |
| 6:20 | But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. |
| 6:21 | Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went. |
| 6:22 | The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone; |
| 6:23 | (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:) |
| 6:24 | When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus. |
| 6:25 | And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? |
| 6:26 | Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. |
| 6:27 | Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. |
| 6:28 | Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? |
| 6:29 | Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. |
| 6:30 | They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? |
| 6:31 | Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. |
| 6:32 | Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. |
| 6:33 | For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. |
| 6:34 | Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. |
| 6:35 | And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. |
| 6:36 | But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. |
| 6:37 | All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. |
| 6:38 | For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. |
| 6:39 | And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. |
| 6:40 | And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. |
| 6:41 | The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. |
| 6:42 | And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? |
| 6:43 | Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. |
| 6:44 | No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. |
| 6:45 | It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. |
| 6:46 | Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. |
| 6:47 | Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. |
| 6:48 | I am that bread of life. |
| 6:49 | Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. |
| 6:50 | This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. |
| 6:51 | I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. |
| 6:52 | The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? |
| 6:53 | Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. |
| 6:54 | Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. |
| 6:55 | For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. |
| 6:56 | He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. |
| 6:57 | As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. |
| 6:58 | This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. |
| 6:59 | These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. |
| 6:60 | Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? |
| 6:61 | When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? |
| 6:62 | What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? |
| 6:63 | It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. |
| 6:64 | But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. |
| 6:65 | And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. |
| 6:66 | From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. |
| 6:67 | Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? |
| 6:68 | Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. |
| 6:69 | And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. |
| 6:70 | Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? |
| 6:71 | He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve. |
| 6:1 | After these things, Jesus went away over the Sea of Galilee, the Tiberian Sea . |
| 6:2 | And a great crowd followed Him, for they saw His miracles which He did on the sick ones. |
| 6:3 | And Jesus went up into the mountain and sat there with His disciples. |
| 6:4 | And the Passover was near, the feast of the Jews. |
| 6:5 | Then Jesus lifting up His eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to Him, He said to Philip, From where may we buy loaves that these may eat? |
| 6:6 | But He said this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do. |
| 6:7 | Philip answered Him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not enough for them, that each of them may receive a little. |
| 6:8 | One of His disciples said to Him, Andrew the brother of Simon Peter, |
| 6:9 | A little boy is here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are these for so many? |
| 6:10 | And Jesus said, Make the men to recline. And much grass was in the place. Then the men reclined, the number was about five thousand. |
| 6:11 | And Jesus took the loaves, and giving thanks distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining. And in the same way the fish, as much as they desired. |
| 6:12 | And when they were filled, He said to His disciples, Gather up the fragments left over, that not anything be lost. |
| 6:13 | Then they gathered and filled twelve hand baskets with fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over to those who had eaten. |
| 6:14 | Then seeing what miracle Jesus did, the men said, This is truly the Prophet, the one coming into the world. |
| 6:15 | Then knowing that they were about to come and seize Him, that they might make Him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain alone by Himself. |
| 6:16 | And when it became evening, His disciples went down on the sea. |
| 6:17 | And entering into the boat, they were going across the sea to Capernaum. And darkness had already occurred, and Jesus had not come to them. |
| 6:18 | And the sea was aroused by a great wind blowing. |
| 6:19 | Then having rowed about twenty five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea. And He having come near the boat, they were afraid. |
| 6:20 | But He said to them, I AM! Do not fear. |
| 6:21 | Then they desired to take Him into the boat. And the boat was instantly at the land to which they were going. |
| 6:22 | On the morrow, the crowd standing on the other side of the sea had seen that no other little boat was there except one, that one into which His disciples entered, and that Jesus did not go with His disciples into the small boat, but that the disciples went away alone. |
| 6:23 | But other small boats came from Tiberias near the place where they ate the loaves, the Lord having given thanks. |
| 6:24 | Therefore, when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there nor His disciples, they themselves also entered into the boats and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus. |
| 6:25 | And finding Him across the sea, they said to Him, Rabbi, when did you come here? |
| 6:26 | Jesus answered them and said, Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me not because you saw miracles, but because you ate of the loaves and were satisfied. |
| 6:27 | Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of man will give to you; for God the Father sealed this One. |
| 6:28 | Then they said to Him, What may we do that we may work the works of God? |
| 6:29 | Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that you believe into Him whom that One sent. |
| 6:30 | Then they said to Him, Then what miracle do you do that we may see and may believe you? What do you work? |
| 6:31 | Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written "He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat." LXX-Psa. 77:24; MT-Psa. 78:24 |
| 6:32 | Then Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Moses has not given you the bread out of Heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread out of Heaven. |
| 6:33 | For the bread of God is He coming down out of Heaven and giving life to the world. |
| 6:34 | Then they said to Him, Lord, always give us this bread. |
| 6:35 | Jesus said to them, I am the Bread of life; the one coming to Me will not at all hunger, and the one believing into Me will never ever thirst. |
| 6:36 | But I said to you that you also have seen Me and did not believe. |
| 6:37 | All that the Father gives to Me shall come to Me, and the one coming to Me I will in no way cast out. |
| 6:38 | For I have come down out of Heaven, not that I should do My will, but the will of Him who sent Me. |
| 6:39 | And this is the will of the Father sending Me, that of all that He has given Me, I shall not lose any of it, but shall raise it up in the last day. |
| 6:40 | And this is the will of the One sending Me, that everyone seeing the Son and believing into Him should have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day. |
| 6:41 | Then the Jews murmured about Him, because He said, I am the Bread coming down out of Heaven. |
| 6:42 | And they said, Is this not Jesus the son of Joseph, of whom we know the father and the mother? How does this one now say, I have come down out of Heaven? |
| 6:43 | Then Jesus answered and said to them, Do not murmur with one another. |
| 6:44 | No one is able to come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up in the last day. |
| 6:45 | It has been written in the Prophets, They "shall" all "be taught of God." So then everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to Me; Isa. 54:13 |
| 6:46 | not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One being from God, He has seen the Father. |
| 6:47 | Truly, truly, I say to you, the one believing into Me has everlasting life. |
| 6:48 | I am the Bread of life. |
| 6:49 | Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and died. |
| 6:50 | This is the Bread coming down out of Heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die. |
| 6:51 | I am the Living Bread that came down from Heaven. If anyone eats of this Bread, he will live forever. And indeed the bread which I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. |
| 6:52 | Then the Jews argued with one another, saying, How can this one give us his flesh to eat? |
| 6:53 | Then Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves. |
| 6:54 | The one partaking of My flesh and drinking of My blood has everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. |
| 6:55 | For My flesh is truly food, and My blood is truly drink. |
| 6:56 | The one partaking of My flesh and drinking of My blood abides in Me, and I in him. |
| 6:57 | Even as the living Father sent Me, and I live through the Father; also the one partaking Me, even that one will live through Me. |
| 6:58 | This is the Bread which came down out of Heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna and died; the one partaking of this Bread will live forever. |
| 6:59 | He said these things teaching in a synagogue in Capernaum. |
| 6:60 | Then many of His disciples having heard, they said, This word is hard; who is able to hear it? |
| 6:61 | But knowing in Himself that His disciples were murmuring about this, Jesus said to them, Does this offend you? |
| 6:62 | Then what if you see the Son of man going up where He was at first? |
| 6:63 | It is the Spirit that gives life. The flesh does not profit, nothing! The words which I speak to you are spirit and are life. |
| 6:64 | But there are some of you who are not believing. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were not believing, and who was the one betraying Him. |
| 6:65 | And He said, Because of this, I have told you that no one is able to come to Me except it is given to him from My Father. |
| 6:66 | From this time many of His disciples went away into the things behind, and no longer walked with Him. |
| 6:67 | Therefore, Jesus said to the Twelve, Do you also wish to go? |
| 6:68 | Then Simon Peter answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of everlasting life. |
| 6:69 | And we have believed and have known that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. |
| 6:70 | Jesus answered them, Did I not choose you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil! |
| 6:71 | But He spoke of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, for this one was about to betray Him, being one of the Twelve. |
