John 6:33-63

33ForG1063 theG3588 breadG740 of GodG2316 isG1510 He whoG3588 comes downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772 andG2532 givesG1325 lifeG2222 to theG3588 worldG2889.”

34“SirG2962,” they saidG2036G4314G846, “giveG1325 usG1473 thisG3778 breadG740 at all timesG3842.”

35

JesusG2424 answeredG2036, “IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 breadG740 of lifeG2222. WhoeverG3588 comesG2064 toG4314 MeG1473 will never hungerG3756G3361G3983, andG2532 whoeverG3588 believesG4100 inG1519 MeG1473 will never thirstG3756G3361G4455G1372. 36ButG235 as I statedG2036G4771, you have seenG2532G3708 MeG1473 and stillG2532 you do notG3756 believeG4100.

37EveryoneG3956G3739 theG3588 FatherG3962 givesG1325 MeG1473 will comeG2240 toG4314 MeG1473, andG2532 theG3588 one who comesG2064 toG4314 MeG1473 I will never driveG3756G3361G1544 awayG1854. 38ForG3754 I have come downG2597 fromG575 heavenG3772, notG3756 toG2443 doG4160 MyG1699 own willG2307, butG235 to do theG3588 willG2307 of Him whoG3588 sentG3992 MeG1473.

39AndG1161 thisG3778 isG1510 theG3588 willG2307 of Him whoG3588 sentG3992 MeG1473, thatG2443 I shall loseG622 noneG3361 ofG1537 thoseG3739 He has givenG1325 MeG1473, butG235 raise them upG450G846 atG1722 theG3588 lastG2078 dayG2250. 40ForG1063 itG3778 isG1510 MyG1473 Father’sG3962 willG2307 thatG2443 everyoneG3956 whoG3588 looks toG2334 theG3588 SonG5207 andG2532 believesG4100 inG1519 HimG846 shall haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, andG2532 IG1473 will raise him upG450G846 atG1722 theG3588 lastG2078 dayG2250.”

41At thisG3767, theG3588 JewsG2453 began to grumbleG1111 aboutG4012 Jesus becauseG3754 He had saidG2036, “IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 breadG740 thatG3588 came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772.” 42They were askingG2036, “IsG1510 thisG3778 notG3756 JesusG2424, theG3588 sonG5207 of JosephG2501, whoseG3739 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384 weG1473 knowG1492? HowG4459 thenG3568 can He sayG3004, ‘I have come downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772?’”

43“StopG3361 grumblingG1111 amongG3326 yourselvesG240,” JesusG2424 repliedG611G2532G2036G846. 44“No oneG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 toG4314 MeG1473 unlessG1437G3361 theG3588 FatherG3962 whoG3588 sentG3992 MeG1473 drawsG1670 himG846, and IG2504 will raise him upG450G846 atG1722 theG3588 lastG2078 dayG2250. 45It isG1510 writtenG1125 inG1722 theG3588 ProphetsG4396: ‘AndG2532 they will all beG1510G3956 taughtG1318 by GodG2316.’1 EveryoneG3956 whoG3588 has heardG191 theG3588 FatherG3962 andG2532 learnedG3129 fromG3844 Him comesG2064 toG4314 MeG1473— 46notG3756 thatG3754 anyoneG5100 has seenG3708 theG3588 FatherG3962 exceptG1487G3361 theG3588 One who isG1510 fromG3844 GodG2316; only HeG3778 has seenG3708 theG3588 FatherG3962.

47TrulyG281, trulyG281, I tellG3004 youG4771, he whoG3588 believesG4100 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 48IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 breadG740 of lifeG2222. 49YourG4771 fathersG3962 ateG5315 theG3588 mannaG3131 inG1722 theG3588 wildernessG2048, yetG2532 they diedG599. 50ThisG3778 isG1510 theG3588 breadG740 thatG3588 comes downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772, so thatG2443 anyoneG5100 may eatG5315 ofG1537 itG846 andG2532 notG3361 dieG599. 51IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 livingG2198 breadG740 thatG3588 came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772. IfG1437 anyoneG5100 eatsG5315 ofG1537 thisG3778 breadG740, he will liveG2198 foreverG1519G3588G165. AndG2532 this breadG740, whichG3739 IG1473 will giveG1325 forG5228 theG3588 lifeG2222 of theG3588 worldG2889, isG1510 MyG1473 fleshG4561.”

52At thisG3767, theG3588 JewsG2453 began to argueG3164 amongG4314 themselvesG240, “HowG4459 canG1410 thisG3778 man giveG1325 usG1473 HisG846 fleshG4561 to eatG5315?”

53SoG3767 JesusG2424 saidG2036 to themG846, “TrulyG281, trulyG281, I tellG3004 youG4771, unlessG1437G3361 you eatG5315 theG3588 fleshG4561 andG2532 drinkG4095 theG3588 bloodG129 of theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444, you haveG2192 noG3756 lifeG2222 inG1722 youG1438. 54WhoeverG3588 eatsG5176 MyG1473 fleshG4561 andG2532 drinksG4095 MyG1473 bloodG129 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and IG2504 will raise him upG450G846 at theG3588 lastG2078 dayG2250. 55ForG1063 MyG1473 fleshG4561 isG1510 realG227 foodG1035, andG2532 MyG1473 bloodG129 isG1510 realG227 drinkG4213.

56WhoeverG3588 eatsG5176 MyG1473 fleshG4561 andG2532 drinksG4095 MyG1473 bloodG129 remainsG3306 inG1722 MeG1473, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846. 57Just asG2531 theG3588 livingG2198 FatherG3962 sentG649 MeG1473 and IG2504 liveG2198 because ofG1223 theG3588 FatherG3962, soG2532 alsoG2548 theG3588 one who feeds onG5176 MeG1473 will liveG2198 because ofG1223 MeG1473. 58ThisG3778 isG1510 theG3588 breadG740 thatG3588 came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772. UnlikeG3756G2531 your fathersG3962, who ateG5315 the manna andG2532 diedG599, theG3588 one who eatsG5176 thisG3778 breadG740 will liveG2198 foreverG1519G3588G165.”

59Jesus saidG2036 thisG3778 while teachingG1321 inG1722 the synagogueG4864 inG1722 CapernaumG2584. 60On hearingG191 it, manyG4183 ofG1537 HisG846 disciplesG3101 saidG2036, “ThisG3778 isG1510 a difficultG4642 teachingG3056. WhoG5101 canG1410 acceptG191 itG846?”

61

AwareG1492G1722G1438 thatG3754 HisG846 disciplesG3101 were grumblingG1111 aboutG4012 thisG3778 teaching, JesusG2424 askedG2036 themG846, “Does thisG3778 offendG4624 youG4771? 62ThenG3767 what will happen ifG1437 you seeG2334 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 ascendG305 to whereG3699 He wasG1510 beforeG4386?

63TheG3588 SpiritG4151 gives lifeG2227; theG3588 fleshG4561 profitsG5623 nothingG3756G3762. TheG3588 wordsG4487 IG1473 have spokenG2980 to youG4771 areG1510 spiritG4151 andG2532 they areG1510 lifeG2222.
