給五千人吃飽
6 這事以後，耶穌渡過加利利海，就是提比哩亞海。 2 有許多人因為看見他在病人身上所行的神蹟，就跟隨他。 3 耶穌上了山，和門徒一同坐在那裡。 4 那時猶太人的逾越節近了。 5 耶穌舉目看見許多人來，就對腓力說：「我們從哪裡買餅叫這些人吃呢？」 6 他說這話是要試驗腓力，他自己原知道要怎樣行。 7 腓力回答說：「就是二十兩銀子的餅，叫他們各人吃一點也是不夠的。」 8 有一個門徒，就是西門彼得的兄弟安得烈，對耶穌說： 9 「在這裡有一個孩童，帶著五個大麥餅、兩條魚，只是分給這許多人還算什麼呢？」 10 耶穌說：「你們叫眾人坐下。」原來那地方的草多。眾人就坐下，數目約有五千。 11 耶穌拿起餅來，祝謝了，就分給那坐著的人，分魚也是這樣，都隨著他們所要的。 12 他們吃飽了，耶穌對門徒說：「把剩下的零碎收拾起來，免得有糟蹋的。」 13 他們便將那五個大麥餅的零碎，就是眾人吃了剩下的，收拾起來，裝滿了十二個籃子。 14 眾人看見耶穌所行的神蹟，就說：「這真是那要到世間來的先知！」
15 耶穌既知道眾人要來強逼他做王，就獨自又退到山上去了。
耶穌履海
16 到了晚上，他的門徒下海邊去， 17 上了船，要過海往迦百農去。天已經黑了，耶穌還沒有來到他們那裡。 18 忽然狂風大作，海就翻騰起來。 19 門徒搖櫓約行了十里多路，看見耶穌在海面上走，漸漸近了船，他們就害怕。 20 耶穌對他們說：「是我，不要怕！」 21 門徒就喜歡接他上船，船立時到了他們所要去的地方。
22 第二日，站在海那邊的眾人知道那裡沒有別的船，只有一隻小船，又知道耶穌沒有同他的門徒上船，乃是門徒自己去的。 23 然而有幾隻小船從提比哩亞來，靠近主祝謝後分餅給人吃的地方。
當為永生的食物勞力
24 眾人見耶穌和門徒都不在那裡，就上了船，往迦百農去找耶穌。 25 既在海那邊找著了，就對他說：「拉比，是幾時到這裡來的？」 26 耶穌回答說：「我實實在在地告訴你們：你們找我，並不是因見了神蹟，乃是因吃餅得飽。 27 不要為那必壞的食物勞力，要為那存到永生的食物勞力，就是人子要賜給你們的，因為人子是父神所印證的。」 28 眾人問他說：「我們當行什麼，才算做神的工呢？」 29 耶穌回答說：「信神所差來的，這就是做神的工。」 30 他們又說：「你行什麼神蹟，叫我們看見就信你？你到底做什麼事呢？ 31 我們的祖宗在曠野吃過嗎哪，如經上寫著說：『他從天上賜下糧來給他們吃。』」 32 耶穌說：「我實實在在地告訴你們：那從天上來的糧不是摩西賜給你們的，乃是我父將天上來的真糧賜給你們。 33 因為神的糧就是那從天上降下來賜生命給世界的。」
耶穌為生命的糧
34 他們說：「主啊，常將這糧賜給我們！」 35 耶穌說：「我就是生命的糧。到我這裡來的，必定不餓；信我的，永遠不渴。 36 只是我對你們說過，你們已經看見我，還是不信。 37 凡父所賜給我的人，必到我這裡來；到我這裡來的，我總不丟棄他。 38 因為我從天上降下來，不是要按自己的意思行，乃是要按那差我來者的意思行。 39 差我來者的意思就是：他所賜給我的，叫我一個也不失落，在末日卻叫他復活。 40 因為我父的意思是叫一切見子而信的人得永生，並且在末日我要叫他復活。」
猶太人議論主
41 猶太人因為耶穌說「我是從天上降下來的糧」，就私下議論他， 42 說：「這不是約瑟的兒子耶穌嗎？他的父母我們豈不認得嗎？他如今怎麼說『我是從天上降下來的』呢？」 43 耶穌回答說：「你們不要大家議論。 44 若不是差我來的父吸引人，就沒有能到我這裡來的；到我這裡來的，在末日我要叫他復活。 45 在先知書上寫著說：『他們都要蒙神的教訓。』凡聽見父之教訓又學習的，就到我這裡來。 46 這不是說有人看見過父，唯獨從神來的，他看見過父。 47 我實實在在地告訴你們：信的人有永生。 48 我就是生命的糧。 49 你們的祖宗在曠野吃過嗎哪，還是死了； 50 這是從天上降下來的糧，叫人吃了就不死。 51 我是從天上降下來生命的糧，人若吃這糧，就必永遠活著。我所要賜的糧就是我的肉，為世人之生命所賜的。」
52 因此，猶太人彼此爭論說：「這個人怎能把他的肉給我們吃呢？」 53 耶穌說：「我實實在在地告訴你們：你們若不吃人子的肉，不喝人子的血，就沒有生命在你們裡面。 54 吃我肉、喝我血的人就有永生，在末日我要叫他復活。 55 我的肉真是可吃的，我的血真是可喝的。 56 吃我肉、喝我血的人常在我裡面，我也常在他裡面。 57 永活的父怎樣差我來，我又因父活著，照樣，吃我肉的人也要因我活著。 58 這就是從天上降下來的糧。吃這糧的人就永遠活著，不像你們的祖宗吃過嗎哪還是死了。」 59 這些話是耶穌在迦百農會堂裡教訓人說的。
主的話是靈是生命
60 他的門徒中有好些人聽見了，就說：「這話甚難，誰能聽呢？」 61 耶穌心裡知道門徒為這話議論，就對他們說：「這話是叫你們厭棄[a]嗎？ 62 倘或你們看見人子升到他原來所在之處，怎麼樣呢？ 63 叫人活著的乃是靈，肉體是無益的。我對你們所說的話就是靈，就是生命。 64 只是你們中間有不信的人。」耶穌從起頭就知道誰不信他，誰要賣他。 65 耶穌又說：「所以我對你們說過，若不是蒙我父的恩賜，沒有人能到我這裡來。」
彼得認耶穌為神的聖者
66 從此，他門徒中多有退去的，不再和他同行。 67 耶穌就對那十二個門徒說：「你們也要去嗎？」 68 西門彼得回答說：「主啊，你有永生之道，我們還歸從誰呢？ 69 我們已經信了，又知道你是神的聖者。」 70 耶穌說：「我不是揀選了你們十二個門徒嗎？但你們中間有一個是魔鬼。」 71 耶穌這話是指著加略人西門的兒子猶大說的，他本是十二個門徒裡的一個，後來要賣耶穌的。

耶稣让五千人吃饱
6 此后，耶稣渡过加利利湖，此湖也叫提比哩亚湖。 2 许多人因为看到他在病人身上显示的奇迹，都跟在他身后， 3 耶稣上了一座小山，和门徒们坐在一起。 4 这时已经快到犹太人的逾越节了。
5 耶稣抬头看见一大群人向他走来，就问腓力∶“我们得到哪里去买足够这些人吃的面包呢？” 6 （耶稣早就知道该怎么做，他这么问只是为了试探腓力。）
7 腓力说∶“花一个月工钱买的面包，还不够这些人每人吃一口的呢。”
8 西门彼得的兄弟安得烈是耶稣的门徒之一，他对耶稣说∶ 9 “这里有个男孩，他有五块大麦面包和两条鱼，可是这对那么多人有什么用处呢？”
10 耶稣说∶“让大家坐下来吧。” 那地方遍地是青草，人们席地而坐，大约有五千个男人。 11 耶稣拿起面包，谢恩之后，把面包分给坐在那里的人，同样，他也把鱼分给了他们，任凭他们随便要多少。
12 等人们都吃饱了，耶稣对门徒说∶“把剩下的东西都收拾起来，不要浪费。” 13 门徒们把这些人分吃五块大麦面包后的剩饭收起来，足足装了满满十二筐。
14 人们看到耶稣所行的奇迹，开始说∶“这个人肯定是即将来临到这个世界的先知。” 15 耶稣知道他们要来强迫他做王，便独自一人离开到山里去了。
耶稣在水面行走
16 到了晚上，耶稣的门徒来到湖边。 17 天已经晚了，耶稣还没有过来，他们上了船，起航渡湖到迦百农去。 18 一阵狂风吹过，湖上的浪越来越大， 19 当门徒们划出五、六公里远时，看见耶稣走在湖面上，他走近船时，他们都吓坏了。 20 但是，耶稣对他们说∶“是我，不要害怕。” 21 然后，他们都高兴地把耶稣接进了船，船立刻就到了他们要去的地方。
寻找耶稣
22 第二天，留在湖对岸的人们看到只有一条船在那里，他们意识到耶稣没有和他的门徒们一起走，而是门徒们自己走了。 23 有几只从提比哩亚来的船，在主谢恩后他们吃面包的地方的附近，靠了岸。 24 人们看见耶稣和他的门徒都不在那里，便上船去迦百农找他。
耶稣-生命之粮
25 他们在湖对岸找到耶稣时，对他说∶“拉比（老师），您什么时候到这里的？”
26 耶稣回答他们说∶“我实话告诉你们，你们来找我，不是因为你们看到了奇迹，是因为你们吃了面包，而且吃得心满意足。 27 不要为会腐烂变质的食物而工作，而应该为永不变质和提供永恒生命的食物而工作，即人子赐予的食物，因为上帝已把他认可的封印贴在了人子身上。”
28 他们问∶“我们该怎么去执行上帝要求的事情呢？”
29 耶稣回答∶“上帝要求你们做的事情是：信仰他派来的人。”
30 他们又问∶“您将行什么样的奇迹给我们看，好让我们相信您呢？您将做什么呢？ 31 我们的祖先在荒野里吃过吗哪，正如《经》上所记载的∶‘他赐给他们从天而降的面包吃。’”
32 耶稣又对他们说∶“我实话告诉你们：摩西没有赐给你们来自天堂的面包，而是我父把来自天堂的真正的面包赐给了你们。 33 因为，上帝的面包是那位降自天堂、并且给这个世界带来生命的那位。”
34 他们说∶“先生，从今往后，一直给我们这种面包吧。”
35 耶稣说∶“我就是赐予生命的面包，到我这里来的人将不会挨饿，信仰我的人也绝不会干渴。 36 正如我以前告诉过你们的那样，你们已经看见我了，可你们还是不相信。 37 父赐给我的人，都会到我这里来，我绝对不会背弃到我这里来的人。 38 因为我从天堂降临，不是来做我自己想做的事，而是执行派我来的人的意愿。 39 这就是派我来的人的意愿：不失去他（上帝）赐给我的任何人，并在末日里让他们复活。 40 因为我父的愿望是让看到人子并信仰他的人都会得到永生，我将在这个时代的末日里让他们复活。”
41 因为耶稣说“我是来自天上的面包”，所以，犹太人开始对他不满。 42 他们说∶“这个耶稣难道不是约瑟的儿子吗？我们难道不认识他父母吗？他现在怎么能说‘我来自天堂呢？’”
43 耶稣回答他们∶“不要私下抱怨了。 44 如果没有差谴我的父的吸引，没有人能到我这里来。我将在这个时代的末日里，让到我这里来的人复活。 45 先知写道∶‘他们都将受上帝的教导。’所有听从父亲话，并且学习父亲的教诲的人都会到我这里来。 46 （除了来自上帝的那位，没有谁见到过父亲，只有他见过。） 47 我实话告诉你们，相信的人会获永生， 48 我是赋予生命的食粮。 49 你们祖先在荒野里吃过吗哪，但是他们死了。 50 然而，这是来自天堂的面包，人可以吃了它而不会死去。 51 我就是来自天堂的活面包，任何人吃了这面包，都会永生不死。这块饼就是我的肉体，我将为这个世界的生命奉献它。”
52 犹太人彼此争论说∶“他怎么能拿自己的肉体让咱们吃呢？”
53 耶稣说∶“我实话告诉你们，如果你们不吃人子的肉、喝他的血，你们就不会有生命。 54 吃我的肉、喝我的血的人，会获得永恒的生命，而且在这个时代的末日里，我将让他复活。 55 因为我的肉体是真正的粮食，我的血液是真正的饮料。 56 吃我的肉、喝我的血的人，我中有他，他中有我。 57 正如活着的父亲派我来，我因为父亲而活一样，那么吃了我的人，也因为我而活。 58 这是来自天堂的面包，不像我们的祖先吃了吗哪，后来还是死掉了，吃了这面包的人，会永远活着。” 59 这番话是耶稣在迦百农一个会堂里传教时说的。
很多门徒离开耶稣
60 耶稣的许多门徒听了这话，说道∶“这些教导难以接受，谁能听他的呢？”
61 耶稣知道他们在嘀咕什么，便对他们说∶“这些教导令你们感到不安了吗？ 62 如果你们看到人子升天回到他原来的地方去，又会怎么样呢？ 63 圣灵赋予生命，肉体毫无用处。我对你们说的话就是圣灵，它们赋予生命。不过你们当中有些人不相信。” 64 （耶稣一开始就知道那些不相信他的人，也知道那个要出卖他的人。）接着他说： 65 “这就是我为什么告诉你们，除非是父亲使人有可能到我这里来，否则没有人能够到我这里来。”
66 从此，耶稣的许多门徒不再跟随他了。
67 耶稣问十二个使徒∶“你们也想离开吗？”
68 西门彼得回答说∶“主，我们到哪儿去呢？您有赋予永生的话， 69 我们信仰您，我们知道您是来自上帝的圣人。”
70 耶稣回答说∶“难道不是我挑选了你们十二个人吗？可是你们之中有一个却是魔鬼！” 71 （他指的是加略人西门的儿子犹大，尽管他是十二使徒之一，后来，他出卖了耶稣。）

6 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
48 I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand(A)
6 Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias), 2 and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs(B) he had performed by healing the sick. 3 Then Jesus went up on a mountainside(C) and sat down with his disciples. 4 The Jewish Passover Festival(D) was near.
5 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip,(E) “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages[a] to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!”
8 Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother,(F) spoke up, 9 “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?”(G)
10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). 11 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks,(H) and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.
12 When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.” 13 So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.
14 After the people saw the sign(I) Jesus performed, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”(J) 15 Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king(K) by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.(L)
Jesus Walks on the Water(M)
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, 17 where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them. 18 A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. 19 When they had rowed about three or four miles,[b] they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water;(N) and they were frightened. 20 But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.”(O) 21 Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
22 The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake(P) realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone.(Q) 23 Then some boats from Tiberias(R) landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.(S) 24 Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus.
Jesus the Bread of Life
25 When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, “Rabbi,(T) when did you get here?”
26 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me,(U) not because you saw the signs(V) I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. 27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures(W) to eternal life,(X) which the Son of Man(Y) will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal(Z) of approval.”
28 Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”
29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe(AA) in the one he has sent.”(AB)
30 So they asked him, “What sign(AC) then will you give that we may see it and believe you?(AD) What will you do? 31 Our ancestors ate the manna(AE) in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’[c]”(AF)
32 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven(AG) and gives life to the world.”
34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”(AH)
35 Then Jesus declared, “I am(AI) the bread of life.(AJ) Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes(AK) in me will never be thirsty.(AL) 36 But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. 37 All those the Father gives me(AM) will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. 38 For I have come down from heaven(AN) not to do my will but to do the will(AO) of him who sent me.(AP) 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me,(AQ) but raise them up at the last day.(AR) 40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son(AS) and believes in him shall have eternal life,(AT) and I will raise them up at the last day.”
41 At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” 42 They said, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph,(AU) whose father and mother we know?(AV) How can he now say, ‘I came down from heaven’?”(AW)
43 “Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus answered. 44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them,(AX) and I will raise them up at the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’[d](AY) Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me. 46 No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God;(AZ) only he has seen the Father. 47 Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.(BA) 48 I am the bread of life.(BB) 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.(BC) 50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven,(BD) which anyone may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread(BE) that came down from heaven.(BF) Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”(BG)
52 Then the Jews(BH) began to argue sharply among themselves,(BI) “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
53 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh(BJ) of the Son of Man(BK) and drink his blood,(BL) you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.(BM) 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.(BN) 57 Just as the living Father sent me(BO) and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.”(BP) 59 He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
Many Disciples Desert Jesus
60 On hearing it, many of his disciples(BQ) said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”(BR)
61 Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you?(BS) 62 Then what if you see the Son of Man(BT) ascend to where he was before!(BU) 63 The Spirit gives life;(BV) the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit[e] and life. 64 Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known(BW) from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.(BX) 65 He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them.”(BY)
66 From this time many of his disciples(BZ) turned back and no longer followed him.
67 “You do not want to leave too, do you?” Jesus asked the Twelve.(CA)
68 Simon Peter answered him,(CB) “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.(CC) 69 We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”(CD)
70 Then Jesus replied, “Have I not chosen you,(CE) the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”(CF) 71 (He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot,(CG) who, though one of the Twelve, was later to betray him.)(CH)

Feeding the Five Thousand(A)
6 After (B)these things Jesus went over the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of (C)Tiberias. 2 Then a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were (D)diseased.[a] 3 And Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.
4 (E)Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near. 5 (F)Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to (G)Philip, “Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?” 6 But this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.
7 Philip answered Him, (H)“Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little.”
8 One of His disciples, (I)Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, 9 “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, (J)but what are they among so many?”
10 Then Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them [b]to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted. 12 So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, “Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost.” 13 Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, “This is truly (K)the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
Jesus Walks on the Sea(L)
15 Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him (M)king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.
16 (N)Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, 17 got into the boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was already dark, and Jesus had not come to them. 18 Then the sea arose because a great wind was blowing. 19 So when they had rowed about [c]three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the boat; and they were (O)afraid. 20 But He said to them, (P)“It is I; do not be afraid.” 21 Then they willingly received Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
The Bread from Heaven
22 On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except [d]that one [e]which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone— 23 however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks— 24 when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, (Q)seeking Jesus. 25 And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You come here?”
26 Jesus answered them and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27 (R)Do not labor for the food which perishes, but (S)for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, (T)because God the Father has set His seal on Him.”
28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?”
29 Jesus answered and said to them, (U)“This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
30 Therefore they said to Him, (V)“What sign will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What work will You do? 31 (W)Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, (X)‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’ ”
32 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but (Y)My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 (Z)Then they said to Him, “Lord, give us this bread always.”
35 And Jesus said to them, (AA)“I am the bread of life. (AB)He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never (AC)thirst. 36 (AD)But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet (AE)do not believe. 37 (AF)All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and (AG)the one who comes to Me I will [f]by no means cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, (AH)not to do My own will, (AI)but the will of Him who sent Me. 39 This is the will of the Father who sent Me, (AJ)that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. 40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, (AK)that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
Rejected by His Own
41 The Jews then [g]complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” 42 And they said, (AL)“Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”
43 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, [h]“Do not murmur among yourselves. 44 (AM)No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me (AN)draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, (AO)‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ (AP)Therefore everyone who [i]has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me. 46 (AQ)Not that anyone has seen the Father, (AR)except He who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47 Most assuredly, I say to you, (AS)he who believes [j]in Me has everlasting life. 48 (AT)I am the bread of life. 49 (AU)Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 (AV)This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread (AW)which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and (AX)the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
52 The Jews therefore (AY)quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”
53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless (AZ)you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 (BA)Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is [k]food indeed, and My blood is [l]drink indeed. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood (BB)abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58 (BC)This is the bread which came down from heaven—not (BD)as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
59 These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.
Many Disciples Turn Away
60 (BE)Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a [m]hard saying; who can understand it?”
61 When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples [n]complained about this, He said to them, “Does this [o]offend you? 62 (BF)What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before? 63 (BG)It is the Spirit who gives life; the (BH)flesh profits nothing. The (BI)words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. 64 But (BJ)there are some of you who do not believe.” For (BK)Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him. 65 And He said, “Therefore (BL)I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”
66 (BM)From that time many of His disciples went [p]back and walked with Him no more. 67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”
68 But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have (BN)the words of eternal life. 69 (BO)Also we have come to believe and know that You are the [q]Christ, the Son of the living God.”
70 Jesus answered them, (BP)“Did I not choose you, the twelve, (BQ)and one of you is a devil?” 71 He spoke of (BR)Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would (BS)betray Him, being one of the twelve.
