John 6:31-63

311Our fathersG3962 ateG2068 the mannaG3131 in the wildernessG2048; as it is writtenG1125: ‘2He gaveG1325 them breadG740 out of heavenG3772 to eatG2068.’” 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 3that which 4comesG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772 and givesG1325 lifeG2222 to the worldG2889.” 34ThenG3767 they saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, alwaysG3842 5giveG1325 us thisG3778 breadG740.”

35JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “6I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222; the one who comesG2064 to Me will not beG3983 hungryG3983, and the one who believesG4100 in Me 7will neverG3756G3361 beG1372 thirstyG1372. 36But 8I saidG3004 to you that you have indeedG2532 seenG3708 Me, and yet you do not believeG4100. 379EverythingG3956 that the FatherG3962 givesG1325 Me will comeG2240 to Me, and the one who comesG2064 to Me I certainlyG3756G3361 will not castG1544 outG1544. 38For 10I have comeG2597 downG2597 from heavenG3772, 11not to doG4160 My ownG1699 willG2307, but 12the willG2307 of Him who 13sentG3992 Me. 39And thisG3778 is the willG2307 of Him who sentG3992 Me, that of 14everythingG3956 that He has givenG1325 Me I will 15loseG622 nothingG3361, but will 16raiseG450 it upG450 on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 40For thisG3778 is the willG2307 of My FatherG3962, that everyoneG3956 who 17seesG2334 the SonG5207 and 18believesG4100 in Him will haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I MyselfG1473 will 19raiseG450 him upG450 on the lastG2078 dayG2250.”

4120SoG3767 thenG3767 the JewsG2453 were complainingG1111 aboutG4012 Him becauseG3754 He saidG3004, “I amG1510 the breadG740 that 21cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772.” 42And they were sayingG3004, “22Is thisG3778 not JesusG2424, the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, whoseG3739 fatherG3962 and motherG3384 23we knowG3609? HowG4459 does He nowG3568 sayG3004, ‘24I have comeG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772’?” 43JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “StopG3361 complainingG1111 amongG3326 yourselvesG240. 44NoG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 to Me unlessG1437G3361 the FatherG3962 who sentG3992 Me 25drawsG1670 him; and I will 26raiseG450 him upG450 on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 45It is writtenG1125 27in the ProphetsG4396: ‘28And they shall allG3956 be 29taughtG1318 of GodG2316.’ EveryoneG3956 who has heardG191 and learnedG3129 from the FatherG3962, comesG2064 to Me. 4630Not that anyoneG5100 has seenG3708 the FatherG3962, exceptG1508 the One who is from GodG2316; He has seenG3708 the FatherG3962. 47TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, the one who believesG4100 31hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 4832I amG1510 the breadG740 of lifeG2222. 4933Your fathersG3962 ateG2068 the mannaG3131 in the wildernessG2048, and they diedG599. 50ThisG3778 is the breadG740 that 34comesG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, soG2443 thatG2443 anyoneG5100 may eatG2068 from it and 35not dieG599. 5136I amG1510 the livingG2198 breadG740 that 37cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; ifG1437 anyoneG5100 eatsG2068 from thisG3778 breadG740, 38he will liveG2198 foreverG165; and the breadG740 whichG3739 I will giveG1325 39for the lifeG2222 of the worldG2889 alsoG2532 is 40My fleshG4561.”

5241ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 42began 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, unlessG1437G3361 you eatG2068 the fleshG4561 of 43the SonG5207 of ManG444 and drinkG4095 His bloodG129, you haveG2192 noG3756 lifeG2222 in yourselvesG1438. 54The one who eatsG5176 My fleshG4561 and drinksG4095 My bloodG129 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222, and I will 44raiseG450 him upG450 on the lastG2078 dayG2250. 55For My fleshG4561 is trueG227 foodG1035, and My bloodG129 is trueG227 drinkG4213. 56The one who eatsG5176 My fleshG4561 and drinksG4095 My bloodG129 45remainsG3306 in Me, and I in him. 57JustG2531 asG2531 the 46livingG2198 FatherG3962 47sentG649 Me, and I liveG2198 becauseG1223 of the FatherG3962, the one who eatsG5176 Me, he alsoG2548 will liveG2198 becauseG1223 of Me. 58ThisG3778 is the breadG740 that 48cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, not as 49the fathersG3962 ateG2068 and diedG599; the one who eatsG5176 thisG3778 breadG740 50will liveG2198 foreverG165.” 59TheseG3778 thingsG3778 He saidG3004 51in the synagogueG4864 as He taughtG1321 52in CapernaumG2746.

60SoG3767 thenG3767 manyG4183 of His 53disciplesG3101, when they heardG191 this, saidG3004, “54ThisG3778 statementG3056 is very 55unpleasantG4642; whoG5101 canG1410 listenG191 to it?” 61But JesusG2424, 56awareG3609G1722G1438 that His disciplesG3101 were complainingG1111 aboutG4012 thisG3778, saidG3004 to them, “Is thisG3778 5758offensiveG4624 to you? 62What thenG3767 ifG1437 you seeG2334 59the SonG5207 of ManG444 60ascendingG305 to whereG3699 He was beforeG4387? 6361It is the SpiritG4151 who givesG2227 lifeG2227; the fleshG4561 providesG5623 noG3762 benefitG5623; 62the wordsG4487 that I have spokenG2980 to you are spiritG4151, and are lifeG2222.
