John 6:31-49

311Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘2He 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 3that which 4comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.” 34Then they said to Him, “Lord, always 5give us this bread.”

35Jesus said to them, “6I am the bread of life; the one who comes to Me will not be hungry, and the one who believes in Me 7will never be thirsty. 36But 8I said to you that you have indeed seen Me, and yet you do not believe. 379Everything that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I certainly will not cast out. 38For 10I have come down from heaven, 11not to do My own will, but 12the will of Him who 13sent Me. 39And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of 14everything that He has given Me I will 15lose nothing, but will 16raise it up on the last day. 40For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who 17sees the Son and 18believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will 19raise him up on the last day.”

4120So then the Jews were complaining about Him because He said, “I am the bread that 21came down out of heaven.” 42And they were saying, “22Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother 23we know? How does He now say, ‘24I have come down out of heaven’?” 43Jesus answered and said to them, “Stop complaining among yourselves. 44No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me 25draws him; and I will 26raise him up on the last day. 45It is written 27in the Prophets: ‘28And they shall all be 29taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me. 4630Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47Truly, truly, I say to you, the one who believes 31has eternal life. 4832I am the bread of life. 4933Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.
