John 6:39-54

39ThisG3778 is the willG2307 of Him who sentG3992 Me, that of 1allG3956 that He has givenG1325 Me I 2loseG622 nothingG3361, but 3raiseG450 it up on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 40For thisG3778 is the willG2307 of My FatherG3962, that everyoneG3956 who 4beholdsG2334 the SonG5207 and 5believesG4100 in Him will haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I MyselfG1473 will 6raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250.”

41 7ThereforeG3767 the JewsG2453 were grumblingG1111 aboutG4012 Him, becauseG3754 He saidG3004, “I amG1510 the breadG740 that 8cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772.” 42They were sayingG3004, “9Is not thisG3778 JesusG2424, the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, whoseG3739 fatherG3962 and motherG3384 10we knowG3609? HowG4459 does He nowG3568 sayG3004, ‘11I 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 12drawsG1670 him; and I will 13raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 45It is writtenG1125 14in the prophetsG4396, ‘15And they shall allG3956 be 16taughtG1318 of GodG2316.’ EveryoneG3956 who has heardG191 and learnedG3129 from the FatherG3962, comesG2064 to Me. 46 17Not 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 18hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 48 19I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222. 49 20Your fathersG3962 ateG2068 the mannaG3131 in the wildernessG2048, and they diedG599. 50ThisG3778 is the breadG740 which 21comesG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, soG2443 that oneG5100 may eatG2068 of it and 22not dieG599. 51 23I amG1510 the livingG2198 breadG740 that 24cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; ifG1437 anyoneG5100 eatsG2068 of thisG3778 breadG740, 25he will liveG2198 foreverG165; and the breadG740 alsoG2532 whichG3739 I will giveG1325 26for the lifeG2222 of the worldG2889 is 27My fleshG4561.”

52 28ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 29began 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 30the 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 31raiseG450 him up on the lastG2078 dayG2250.
