John 6:51-63
511I amG1510 the livingG2198 breadG740 that 2cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772; ifG1437 anyoneG5100 eatsG2068 from thisG3778 breadG740, 3he will liveG2198 foreverG165; and the breadG740 whichG3739 I will giveG1325 4for the lifeG2222 of the worldG2889 alsoG2532 is 5My fleshG4561.”
526ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 7began 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 8the 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 9raiseG450 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 10remainsG3306 in Me, and I in him. 57JustG2531 asG2531 the 11livingG2198 FatherG3962 12sentG649 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 13cameG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772, not as 14the fathersG3962 ateG2068 and diedG599; the one who eatsG5176 thisG3778 breadG740 15will liveG2198 foreverG165.” 59TheseG3778 thingsG3778 He saidG3004 16in the synagogueG4864 as He taughtG1321 17in CapernaumG2746.
60SoG3767 thenG3767 manyG4183 of His 18disciplesG3101, when they heardG191 this, saidG3004, “19ThisG3778 statementG3056 is very 20unpleasantG4642; whoG5101 canG1410 listenG191 to it?” 61But JesusG2424, 21awareG3609G1722G1438 that His disciplesG3101 were complainingG1111 aboutG4012 thisG3778, saidG3004 to them, “Is thisG3778 2223offensiveG4624 to you? 62What thenG3767 ifG1437 you seeG2334 24the SonG5207 of ManG444 25ascendingG305 to whereG3699 He was beforeG4387? 6326It is the SpiritG4151 who givesG2227 lifeG2227; the fleshG4561 providesG5623 noG3762 benefitG5623; 27the wordsG4487 that I have spokenG2980 to you are spiritG4151, and are lifeG2222.
