John 6:54-66
54He who eatsG5176 My fleshG4561 and drinksG4095 My bloodG129 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I will 1raiseG450 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 2abidesG3306 in Me, and I in him. 57As the 3livingG2198 FatherG3962 4sentG649 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 5cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; not as 6the fathersG3962 ateG2068 and diedG599; he who eatsG5176 thisG3778 breadG740 7will liveG2198 foreverG165.” 59TheseG3778 thingsG3778 He saidG3004 8in the synagogueG4864 as He taughtG1321 9in CapernaumG2746.
60ThereforeG3767 manyG4183 of His 10disciplesG3101, when they heardG191 this saidG3004, “11ThisG3778 is a difficultG4642 statementG3056; whoG5101 canG1410 listenG191 to it?” 61But JesusG2424, 12consciousG3609G1722G1438 that His disciplesG3101 grumbledG1111 at thisG3778, saidG3004 to them, “Does thisG3778 13causeG4624 you to stumbleG4624? 62What thenG3767 ifG1437 you seeG2334 14the SonG5207 of ManG444 15ascendingG305 to whereG3699 He was beforeG4387? 6316It is the SpiritG4151 who givesG2227 lifeG2227; the fleshG4561 profitsG5623 nothingG3762; 17the wordsG4487 that I have spokenG2980 to you are spiritG4151 and are lifeG2222. 64But there are 18someG5100 of you whoG3739 do not believeG4100.” For JesusG2424 19knewG3609 from the beginningG746 whoG5101 they were who did not believeG4100, and 20whoG5101 it was that would 21betrayG3860 Him. 65And He was sayingG3004, “For thisG3778 reasonG1223 I have 22saidG3004 to you, that noG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 to Me unlessG1437G3361 23it has beenG1510 grantedG1325 him from the FatherG3962.”
66As a resultG1537 of thisG3778 manyG4183 of His 24disciplesG3101 25withdrewG3694G565 and were not walkingG4043 with Him anymoreG3765.
