John 6:32-58

32JesusG2424 thenG3767 saidG3004 to them, “TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, it is not MosesG3475 who has givenG1325 you the breadG740 out of heavenG3772, but it is My FatherG3962 who givesG1325 you the trueG228 breadG740 out of heavenG3772. 33For the breadG740 of GodG2316 is 1that which 2comesG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, and givesG1325 lifeG2222 to the worldG2889.” 34ThenG3767 they saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, alwaysG3842 3giveG1325 us thisG3778 breadG740.”

35JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “4I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222; he who comesG2064 to Me will not hungerG3983, and he who believesG4100 in Me 5will neverG3756 G3361 thirstG1372. 36But 6I saidG3004 to you that you have seenG3708 Me, and yet do not believeG4100. 37 7AllG3956 that the FatherG3962 givesG1325 Me will comeG2240 to Me, and the one who comesG2064 to Me I will certainlyG3756 G3361 not castG1544 out. 38For 8I have comeG2597 downG2597 from heavenG3772, 9not to doG4160 My ownG1699 willG2307, but 10the willG2307 of Him who 11sentG3992 Me. 39ThisG3778 is the willG2307 of Him who sentG3992 Me, that of 12allG3956 that He has givenG1325 Me I 13loseG622 nothingG3361, but 14raiseG450 it up on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 40For thisG3778 is the willG2307 of My FatherG3962, that everyoneG3956 who 15beholdsG2334 the SonG5207 and 16believesG4100 in Him will haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I MyselfG1473 will 17raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250.”

41 18ThereforeG3767 the JewsG2453 were grumblingG1111 aboutG4012 Him, becauseG3754 He saidG3004, “I amG1510 the breadG740 that 19cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772.” 42They were sayingG3004, “20Is not thisG3778 JesusG2424, the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, whoseG3739 fatherG3962 and motherG3384 21we knowG3609? HowG4459 does He nowG3568 sayG3004, ‘22I have comeG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772’?” 43JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “Do not grumbleG1111 amongG3326 yourselvesG240. 44NoG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 to Me unlessG1437 G3361 the FatherG3962 who sentG3992 Me 23drawsG1670 him; and I will 24raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 45It is writtenG1125 25in the prophetsG4396, ‘26And they shall allG3956 be 27taughtG1318 of GodG2316.’ EveryoneG3956 who has heardG191 and learnedG3129 from the FatherG3962, comesG2064 to Me. 46 28Not that anyoneG5100 has seenG3708 the FatherG3962, exceptG1508 the One who is from GodG2316; He has seenG3708 the FatherG3962. 47TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, he who believesG4100 29hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 48 30I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222. 49 31Your fathersG3962 ateG2068 the mannaG3131 in the wildernessG2048, and they diedG599. 50ThisG3778 is the breadG740 which 32comesG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, soG2443 that oneG5100 may eatG2068 of it and 33not dieG599. 51 34I amG1510 the livingG2198 breadG740 that 35cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; ifG1437 anyoneG5100 eatsG2068 of thisG3778 breadG740, 36he will liveG2198 foreverG165; and the breadG740 alsoG2532 whichG3739 I will giveG1325 37for the lifeG2222 of the worldG2889 is 38My fleshG4561.”

52 39ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 40began to argueG3164 with oneG240 anotherG240, sayingG3004, “HowG4459 canG1410 thisG3778 manG3778 giveG1325 us His fleshG4561 to eatG2068?” 53SoG3767 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, unlessG1437 G3361 you eatG2068 the fleshG4561 of 41the SonG5207 of ManG444 and drinkG4095 His bloodG129, you haveG2192 noG3756 lifeG2222 in yourselvesG1438. 54He who eatsG5176 My fleshG4561 and drinksG4095 My bloodG129 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I will 42raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 55For My fleshG4561 is trueG227 foodG1035, and My bloodG129 is trueG227 drinkG4213. 56He who eatsG5176 My fleshG4561 and drinksG4095 My bloodG129 43abidesG3306 in Me, and I in him. 57As the 44livingG2198 FatherG3962 45sentG649 Me, and I liveG2198 becauseG1223 of the FatherG3962, soG2532 he who eatsG5176 Me, he alsoG2548 will liveG2198 becauseG1223 of Me. 58ThisG3778 is the breadG740 whichG3588 46cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; not as 47the fathersG3962 ateG2068 and diedG599; he who eatsG5176 thisG3778 breadG740 48will liveG2198 foreverG165.”
