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 gotten into the boat with His disciples, but that His disciples had departed alone. 23Other small boats came 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, looking for Jesus. 25And when 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 910signs, but because you ate some of the loaves and were filled. 27Do not 11work for the food that perishes, but for the food that lasts for 12eternal life, which 13the Son of Man will give you, for on Him the Father, God, 14has set His 15seal.” 28Therefore they said to Him, “What are we to do, so that we may accomplish the works of God?” 29Jesus answered and said to them, “This is 16the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He 17has sent.” 30So they said to Him, “18What then are You doing as a 19sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work are You performing? 3120Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘21He 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 22that which 23comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.” 34Then they said to Him, “Lord, always 24give us this bread.”

35Jesus said to them, “25I am the bread of life; the one who comes to Me will not be hungry, and the one who believes in Me 26will never be thirsty. 36But 27I said to you that you have indeed seen Me, and yet you do not believe. 3728Everything that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I certainly will not cast out. 38For 29I have come down from heaven, 30not to do My own will, but 31the will of Him who 32sent Me. 39And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of 33everything that He has given Me I will 34lose nothing, but will 35raise it up on the last day. 40For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who 36sees the Son and 37believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will 38raise him up on the last day.”
