John 6:22-40

22The next day 1the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other small boat there, except one, and that Jesus 2had not entered with His disciples into the boat, but that His disciples had gone away alone. 23There came other small boats from 3Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the 4Lord 5had given thanks. 24So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and 6came to Capernaum seeking Jesus. 25When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “7Rabbi, when did You get here?”

26Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you 8seek Me, not because you saw 9signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27Do not 10work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to 11eternal life, which 12the Son of Man will give to you, for on Him the Father, God, 13has set His seal.” 28Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?” 29Jesus answered and said to them, “This is 14the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He 15has sent.” 30So they said to Him, “16What then do You do for a 17sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work do You perform? 3118Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘19He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’” 32Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread out of heaven. 33For the bread of God is 20that which 21comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.” 34Then they said to Him, “Lord, always 22give us this bread.”

35Jesus said to them, “23I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me 24will never thirst. 36But 25I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe. 3726All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. 38For 27I have come down from heaven, 28not to do My own will, but 29the will of Him who 30sent Me. 39This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of 31all that He has given Me I 32lose nothing, but 33raise it up on the last day. 40For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who 34beholds the Son and 35believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will 36raise him up on the last day.”
