John 6:48-63

48I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222. 49Your fathersG3962 ateG2068 the mannaG3131 in the wildernessG2048, and they diedG599. 50This isG1510 the breadG740 which cometh downG2597 out of heavenG3772, that a manG3778 may eatG2068 thereof, and not dieG599. 51I amG1510 the livingG2198 breadG740 which cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772: if any man eatG2068 of this breadG740, he shall liveG2198 for ever: yea and the breadG740 which I will giveG1325 isG1510 my fleshG4561, for the lifeG2222 of the worldG2889.

52The JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 strove oneG240 with another, sayingG3004, HowG4459 can this manG3778 giveG1325 us his fleshG4561 to eatG2068? 53JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 unto them, Verily, verily, I sayG3004 unto you, Except ye eatG2068 the fleshG4561 of the SonG5207 of manG444 and drinkG4095 his bloodG129, ye have not lifeG2222 in yourselves. 54He that eateth my fleshG4561 and drinketh my bloodG129 hath eternalG166 lifeG2222; and I will raiseG450 him up at the lastG2078 dayG2250. 55For my fleshG4561 isG1510 meat indeed, and my bloodG129 isG1510 drinkG4213 indeed. 56He that eateth my fleshG4561 and drinketh my bloodG129 abideth in me, and I in him. 57As the livingG2198 FatherG3962 sentG649 me, and I liveG2198 because of the FatherG3962; so he that eateth me, he alsoG2532 shall liveG2198 because of me. 58This isG1510 the breadG740 which cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772: not as the fathersG3962 ateG2068, and diedG599; he that eateth this breadG740 shall liveG2198 for ever. 59These thingsG3778 saidG3004 he in the synagogueG4864, as he taughtG1321 in CapernaumG2584.

60ManyG4183 thereforeG3767 of his disciplesG3101, when they heardG191this, saidG3004, This isG1510 a hard sayingG3004; who can hearG191 it? 61But JesusG2424 knowing in himself that his disciplesG3101 murmured at this, saidG3004 unto them, Doth this causeG4624 you to stumbleG4624? 62What thenG3767 if ye should behold the SonG5207 of manG444 ascendingG305 whereG3699 he wasG1510 before? 63It isG1510 the spiritG4151 that giveth lifeG2222; the fleshG4561 profiteth nothing: the words that I have spokenG2980 unto you areG1510 spiritG4151, and areG1510 lifeG2222.
