John 6
1AfterG3326 these thingsG3778 JesusG3588G2424 wentG565 overG4008 the seaG3588G2281 of GalileeG3588G1056, which is the sea of TiberiasG3588G5085. 2AndG2532 aG3793 greatG4183 multitudeG3793 followedG190 himG846, becauseG3754 they sawG3708 hisG846 miraclesG3588G4592 whichG3739 he didG4160 onG1909 them that were diseasedG770. 3AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 went upG424 intoG1519 a mountainG3588G3735, andG2532 thereG1563 he satG2521 withG3326 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101. 4AndG1161 the passoverG3957, a feastG3588G1859 of the JewsG2453, wasG1510 nighG1451.
5WhenG3767 JesusG3588G2424 thenG3767 lifted upG1869 his eyesG3588G3788, andG2532 sawG2300 aG3793 greatG4183 companyG3793 comeG2064 untoG4314 himG846, he saithG3004 untoG4314 PhilipG3588G5376, WhenceG4159 shall we buyG59 breadG740, thatG2443 theseG3778 may eatG5315? 6AndG1161 thisG3778 he saidG3004 to proveG3985 himG846: forG1063 he himselfG846 knewG1492 whatG5101 he wouldG3195 doG4160. 7PhilipG5376 answeredG611 himG846, Two hundredG1250 pennyworthG1220 of breadG740 isG714 notG3756 sufficientG714 for themG846, thatG2443 every oneG1538 of themG846 may takeG2983 aG5100 littleG1024. 8OneG1520 ofG1537 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’sG4074 brotherG3588G80, saithG3004 unto himG846, 9There isG1510 a ladG3808 hereG1520, whichG3739 hathG2192 fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740, andG2532 twoG1417 small fishesG3795: butG235 whatG5101 areG1510 theyG3778 amongG1519 so manyG5118? 10AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004, MakeG4160 the menG3588G444 sit downG377. NowG1161 there wasG1510 muchG4183 grassG5528 inG1722 the placeG3588G5117. SoG3767 the menG3588G435 sat downG377, in numberG3588G706 aboutG5616 five thousandG4000. 11AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 tookG2983 the loavesG3588G740; andG2532 when he had given thanksG2168, he distributedG1239 to the disciplesG3588G3101, andG1161 the disciplesG3101 to them that were set downG345; andG2532 likewiseG3668 ofG1537 the fishesG3588G3795 as much asG3745 they wouldG2309. 12WhenG5613 they were filledG1705, he saidG3004 unto hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, Gather upG4863 the fragmentsG2801 that remainG4052, thatG2443 nothingG3361 be lostG622. 13ThereforeG3767 they gatheredG4863 them togetherG4863, andG2532 filledG1072 twelveG1427 basketsG2894 with the fragmentsG2801 ofG1537 the fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740, whichG3739 remained over and aboveG4052 unto them that had eatenG977. 14ThenG3767 those menG444, when they had seenG3708 the miracleG4592 thatG3739 JesusG3588G2424 didG4160, saidG3004, ThisG3778 isG1510 of a truthG230 that prophetG3588G4396 that should comeG2064 intoG1519 the worldG3588G2889.
15WhenG3767 JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 perceivedG1097 thatG3754 they wouldG3195 comeG2064 andG2532 takeG726 himG846 by forceG726, toG2443 makeG4160 himG846 a kingG935, he departedG402 againG3825 intoG1519 a mountainG3588G3735 himselfG846 aloneG3441. 16AndG1161 whenG5613 evenG3798 wasG1096 now comeG1096, hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 went downG2597 untoG1909 the seaG3588G2281, 17AndG2532 enteredG1684 intoG1519 a shipG3588G4143, and wentG2064 overG4008 the seaG3588G2281 towardG1519 CapernaumG2584. AndG2532 it wasG1096 nowG2235 darkG4653, andG2532 JesusG3588G2424 wasG2064 notG3756 comeG2064 toG4314 themG846. 18AndG5037 the seaG2281 aroseG1326 by reason of a greatG3173 windG417 that blewG4154. 19So whenG3767 they had rowedG1643 aboutG5613 five and twentyG1501 orG2228 thirtyG5144 furlongsG4712, they seeG2334 JesusG3588G2424 walkingG4043 onG1909 the seaG3588G2281, andG2532 drawingG1096 nighG1451 unto the shipG3588G4143: andG2532 they were afraidG5399. 20ButG1161 he saithG3004 unto themG846, It isG1510 IG1473; beG5399 notG3361 afraidG5399. 21ThenG3767 they willinglyG2309 receivedG2983 himG846 intoG1519 the shipG3588G4143: andG2532 immediatelyG2112 the shipG3588G4143 wasG1096 atG1909 the landG3588G1093 whitherG3739 they wentG5217.
22The day followingG3588G1887, when the peopleG3588G3793 which stoodG3588G2476 on the other sideG4008 of the seaG3588G2281 sawG3708 thatG3754 there wasG1510 noneG3756 otherG243 boatG4142 thereG1563, saveG1487G3361 thatG1565 oneG1520 whereintoG1519G3739 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 were enteredG1684, andG2532 thatG3754 JesusG3588G2424 wentG4897 notG3756 withG4897 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 intoG1519 the boatG3588G4142, butG235 that hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 were gone awayG565 aloneG3441; 23(HowbeitG1161 there cameG2064 otherG243 boatsG4142 fromG1537 TiberiasG5085 nigh untoG1451 the placeG3588G5117 whereG3699 they did eatG5315 breadG3588G740, after thatG2168 the LordG3588G2962 had given thanksG2168:) 24WhenG3753 the peopleG3588G3793 thereforeG3767 sawG3708 thatG3754 JesusG2424 wasG1510 notG3756 thereG1563, neitherG3761 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, theyG846 alsoG2532 tookG1684 shippingG3588G4143, andG2532 cameG2064 toG1519 CapernaumG2584, seeking forG2212 JesusG3588G2424. 25AndG2532 when they had foundG2147 himG846 on the other sideG4008 of the seaG3588G2281, they saidG3004 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, whenG4219 camest thouG1096 hitherG5602? 26JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846 andG2532 saidG3004, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, Ye seekG2212 meG1473, notG3756 becauseG3754 ye sawG3708 the miraclesG4592, butG235 becauseG3754 ye did eatG5315 ofG1537 the loavesG3588G740, andG2532 were filledG5526. 27LabourG2038 notG3361 for the meatG3588G1035 which perishethG622, butG235 for that meatG3588G1035 which endurethG3306 untoG1519 everlastingG166 lifeG2222, whichG3739 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 shall giveG1325 unto youG4771: forG1063 himG3778 hathG4972 GodG3588G2316 the FatherG3588G3962 sealedG4972. 28ThenG3767 said theyG3004 untoG4314 himG846, WhatG5101 shall we doG4160, thatG2443 we might workG2038 the worksG3588G2041 of GodG3588G2316? 29JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, ThisG3778 isG1510 the workG3588G2041 of GodG3588G2316, thatG2443 ye believeG4100 onG1519 him whomG3739 heG1565 hath sentG649. 30They saidG3004 thereforeG3767 unto himG846, WhatG5101 signG4592 shewestG4160 thouG4771 thenG3767, thatG2443 we may seeG3708, andG2532 believeG4100 theeG4771? whatG5101 dost thou workG2038? 31OurG1473 fathersG3588G3962 did eatG5315 mannaG3131 inG1722 the desertG2048; asG2531 it isG1510 writtenG1125, He gaveG1325 themG846 breadG740 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772 to eatG5315. 32ThenG3767 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, MosesG3475 gaveG1325 youG4771 notG3756 that breadG3588G740 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772; butG235 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 givethG1325 youG4771 theG3588G740 trueG228 breadG3588G740 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772. 33ForG1063 the breadG740 of GodG3588G2316 isG1510 he which cometh downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, andG2532 givethG1325 lifeG2222 unto the worldG3588G2889. 34ThenG3767 said theyG3004 untoG4314 himG846, LordG2962, evermoreG3842 giveG1325 usG1473 thisG3778 breadG3588G740. 35AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, IG1473 amG1510 the breadG3588G740 of lifeG3588G2222: he that comethG3588G2064 toG4314 meG1473 shallG3983 neverG3756G3361 hungerG3983; andG2532 he that believethG3588G4100 onG1519 meG1473 shallG1372 neverG3756G3361 thirstG1372. 36ButG235 I saidG3004 unto youG4771, ThatG3754 yeG3708 alsoG2532 have seenG3708 meG1473, andG2532 believeG4100 notG3756. 37AllG3956 thatG3739 the FatherG3588G3962 givethG1325 meG1473 shall comeG2240 toG4314 meG1473; andG2532 him that comethG2064 toG4314 meG1473 I willG1544 in no wiseG3756 castG1544 outG1854. 38ForG3754 I came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, notG3756 toG2443 doG4160 mine ownG1699 willG3588G2307, butG235 the willG3588G2307 of him that sentG3992 meG1473. 39AndG1161 thisG3778 isG1510 the Father’sG3962 willG3588G2307 which hath sentG3992 meG1473, thatG2443 ofG1537 allG3956 whichG3739 he hath givenG1325 meG1473 I should loseG622 nothingG3361, butG235 should raiseG450 itG846 up againG450 atG1722 the lastG2078 dayG2250. 40AndG1161 thisG3778 isG1510 the willG3588G2307 of him that sentG3992 meG1473, thatG2443 every oneG3956 which seethG2334 the SonG3588G5207, andG2532 believethG4100 onG1519 himG846, may haveG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG2532 IG1473 will raiseG450 himG846 upG450 at theG2250 lastG2078 dayG2250. 41The JewsG2453 thenG3767 murmuredG1111 atG4012 himG846, becauseG3754 he saidG3004, IG1473 amG1510 the breadG3588G740 which came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772. 42AndG2532 they saidG3004, IsG1510 notG3756 thisG3778 JesusG2424, the sonG3588G5207 of JosephG2501, whoseG3739 fatherG3588G3962 andG2532 motherG3588G3384 weG1473 knowG1492? howG4459 is it thenG3767 thatG3754 heG3778 saithG3004, I came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772? 43JesusG3588G2424 thereforeG3767 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, MurmurG1111 notG3361 amongG3326 yourselvesG240. 44No manG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 toG4314 meG1473, exceptG1437 the FatherG3588G3962 which hath sentG3992 meG1473 drawG1670 himG846: andG2532 IG1473 will raiseG450 himG846 upG450 at theG2250 lastG2078 dayG2250. 45It isG1510 writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG3588G4396, AndG2532 they shall beG1510 allG3956 taughtG1318 of GodG3588G2316. Every manG3956 thereforeG3767 that hath heardG191, andG2532 hath learnedG3129 ofG3844 the FatherG3588G3962, comethG2064 untoG4314 meG1473. 46NotG3756 thatG3754 any manG5100 hath seenG3708 the FatherG3588G3962, saveG1487 he which isG1510 ofG3844 GodG3588G2316, heG3778 hath seenG3708 the FatherG3588G3962. 47VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, He that believethG4100 onG1519 meG1473 hathG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222. 48IG1473 amG1510 that breadG3588G740 of lifeG3588G2222. 49YourG4771 fathersG3588G3962 did eatG5315 mannaG3131 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, andG2532 are deadG599. 50ThisG3778 isG1510 the breadG3588G740 which cometh downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, thatG2443 a manG5100 may eatG5315 thereofG846, andG2532 notG3361 dieG599. 51IG1473 amG1510 theG3588G740 livingG3588G2198 breadG3588G740 which came downG3588G2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772: ifG1437 any manG5100 eatG5315 ofG1537 thisG3778 breadG3588G740, he shall liveG2198 forG1519 everG3588G165: andG2532 the breadG3588G740 thatG1161 IG1473 will giveG1325 isG1510 myG1473 fleshG3588G4561, whichG3739 IG1473 will giveG1325 forG5228 the lifeG3588G2222 of the worldG3588G2889. 52The JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 stroveG3164 amongG4314 themselvesG240, sayingG3004, HowG4459 canG1410 this manG3778 giveG1325 usG1473 his fleshG3588G4561 to eatG5315? 53ThenG3767 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ExceptG1437 ye eatG5315 the fleshG3588G4561 of the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444, andG2532 drinkG4095 hisG846 bloodG3588G129, ye haveG2192 noG3756 lifeG2222 inG1722 youG1438. 54Whoso eatethG5176 myG1473 fleshG3588G4561, andG2532 drinkethG4095 myG1473 bloodG3588G129, hathG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222; andG2532 IG1473 will raiseG450 himG846 upG450 at theG2250 lastG2078 dayG2250. 55ForG1063 myG1473 fleshG4561 isG1510 meatG1035 indeedG230, andG2532 myG1473 bloodG3588G129 isG1510 drinkG4213 indeedG230. 56He that eatethG5176 myG1473 fleshG3588G4561, andG2532 drinkethG4095 myG1473 bloodG3588G129, dwellethG3306 inG1722 meG1473, and IG2504 inG1722 himG846. 57AsG2531 theG3962 livingG2198 FatherG3962 hath sentG649 meG1473, and IG2504 liveG2198 byG1223 the FatherG3588G3962: soG2532 he that eatethG5176 meG1473, even heG2548 shall liveG2198 byG1223 meG1473. 58ThisG3778 isG1510 that breadG3588G740 which came downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772: notG3756 asG2531 yourG4771 fathersG3588G3962 did eatG5315 mannaG3131, andG2532 are deadG599: he that eatethG5176 ofG3588G740 thisG3778 breadG3588G740 shall liveG2198 forG1519 everG3588G165. 59These thingsG3778 said heG3004 inG1722 the synagogueG4864, as he taughtG1321 inG1722 CapernaumG2584. 60ManyG4183 thereforeG3767 ofG1537 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, when they had heardG191 this, saidG3004, ThisG3778 isG1510 anG3588G3056 hardG4642 sayingG3588G3056; whoG5101 canG1410 hearG191 itG846? 61WhenG1161 JesusG3588G2424 knewG1492 inG1722 himselfG1438 thatG3754 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 murmuredG1111 atG4012 itG3778, he saidG3004 unto themG846, DothG4624 thisG3778 offendG4624 youG4771? 62What andG3767 ifG1437 ye shall seeG2334 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 ascend upG305 whereG3699 he wasG1510 beforeG4386? 63It isG1510 the spiritG3588G4151 that quickenethG2227; the fleshG3588G4561 profitethG5623 nothingG3756: the wordsG3588G4487 thatG3739 IG1473 speakG2980 unto youG4771, they areG1510 spiritG4151, andG2532 they areG1510 lifeG2222. 64ButG235 there areG1510 someG5100 ofG1537 youG4771 thatG3739 believeG4100 notG3756. ForG1063 JesusG3588G2424 knewG1492 fromG1537 the beginningG746 whoG5101 they wereG1510 that believedG4100 notG3361, andG2532 whoG5101 shouldG1510 betrayG3860 himG846. 65AndG2532 he saidG3004, ThereforeG1223 said IG2046 unto youG4771, thatG3754 no manG3762 canG1410 comeG2064 untoG4314 meG1473, exceptG1437 it wereG1510 givenG1325 unto himG846 ofG1537 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962.
66FromG1537 thatG3778 time manyG4183 ofG3588G3101 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 wentG565 backG1519, andG2532 walkedG4043 no moreG3765 withG3326 himG846. 67ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 unto the twelveG1427, WillG2309 yeG4771 alsoG2532 go awayG5217? 68ThenG3767 SimonG4613 PeterG4074 answeredG611 himG846, LordG2962, toG4314 whomG5101 shall we goG565? thou hastG2192 the wordsG4487 ofG2222 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 69AndG2532 weG1473 believeG4100 andG2532 are sureG1097 thatG3754 thouG4771 artG1510 that ChristG3588G5547, the SonG3588G5207 of theG3588G2316 livingG2198 GodG3588G2316. 70JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, HaveG1586 notG3756 IG1473 chosenG1586 youG4771 twelveG1427, andG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 youG4771 isG1510 a devilG1228? 71He spakeG3004 of JudasG3588G2455 IscariotG2469 the son of SimonG4613: forG1063 heG3778 it was that shouldG3195 betrayG3860 himG846, beingG1510 oneG1520 ofG1537 the twelveG1427.
