Evanđelje po Ivanu 6
Knijga O Kristu
Isus hrani pet tisuća ljudi
6 Nakon toga Isus prijeđe na drugu stranu Galilejskog jezera.
2 Golemo ga je mnoštvo posvuda slijedilo jer su gledali čuda koja je činio iscjeljujući bolesnike.
3 Isus se popne na goru i sjedne sa svojim učenicima.
4 Bližio se židovski blagdan Pashe.
5 Podignuvši pogled, Isus ugleda silno mnoštvo ljudi kako se penje prema njemu. On upita Filipa: 'Čime ćemo, Filipe, kupiti kruha da nahranimo sav taj narod?'
6 Kušao ga je jer je već znao što će učiniti.
7 Filip mu odgovori: 'Trebalo bi nam cijelo bogatstvo[a] da svatko dobije samo malo hrane.'
8 Tada Andrija, brat Šimuna Petra, reče:
9 'Ovdje je neki dječak s pet ječmenih kruhova i dvije ribice. Ali što je to za toliki narod?'
10 'Neka ljudi sjednu!' zapovjedi Isus. I cijelo mnoštvo - samo je muškaraca bilo oko pet tisuća - posjeda na prostranu livadu.
11 Zatim Isus uzme kruhove, zahvali Bogu pa ih razdijeli ljudima koji su sjedili. Potom to učini i s ribama. I svi su se do sita najeli.
12 'A sad pokupite ostatke,' reče Isus učenicima, 'tako da ništa ne propadne.'
13 Dvanaest su košara napunili ostacima preostalih mnoštvu koje se nahranilo s pet ječmenih kruhova.
14 Kad su ljudi shvatili kakvo je silno čudo Isus učinio, povikali su: 'On je zaista Prorok[b] koga očekujemo!'
15 Kad Isus vidje da su ga spremni pograbiti i učiniti svojim kraljem, ode ponovno u goru, posve sam.
Isus hoda po vodi
16 Uvečer siđu njegovi učenici na obalu da ga pričekaju.
17 No kako je već pao mrak, a Isus se još nije vratio, ukrcaju se u lađu i upute na drugu stranu jezera, prema Kafarnaumu.
18 More je bilo uzburkano jakim vjetrom.
19 Kad su otplovili kojih pet kilometara[c] od obale, iznenada opaze Isusa kako hoda po vodi prema lađi. Prestraše se,
20 no on im reče: 'Ne bojte se! Ja sam!'
21 Htjeli su ga uzeti na lađu, ali lađa se odmah nađe na obali prema kojoj su plovili.
Isus, kruh života
22 Drugoga se jutra na obali s druge strane jezera počelo okupljati mnoštvo iščekujući da vidi Isusa. Ljudi su znali da se Isus nije ukrcao s učenicima u lađu i da su oni isplovili bez njega.
23 U blizinu onog mjesta na kojemu su jeli kruh pošto je Gospodin zahvalio Bogu stiglo je nekoliko lađica iz Tiberijade.
24 Kad su ljudi vidjeli da ondje nema ni Isusa ni njegovih učenika, ukrcali su se u lađe i otplovili na drugu stranu jezera, u Kafarnaum, ne bi li pronašli Isusa.
25 Kad su stigli onamo, pronašli su ga i upitali: 'Učitelju, kad si došao ovamo?'
26 Isus im odgovori: 'Vi uistinu želite biti sa mnom jer ste se nasitili onih kruhova, a ne zato što ste razumjeli značenje čuda koja sam činio.
27 Ne pribavljajte sebi propadljivu hranu, već hranu koja ostaje za vječni život što će vam ga dati Sin Čovječji. Jer ga je Bog Otac za to ovlastio.'
28 'Što nam je činiti da bismo radili ono što Bog hoće?' pitali su.
29 'Bog hoće da vjerujte u onoga koga je on poslao
30 'Kakav ćeš nam znak dati
31 Uostalom, naši su preci jeli manu dok su putovali pustinjom! U Svetom pismu stoji: "Dao im je za jelo kruh s neba.''[d]
32 Isus im reče: 'Zaista vam kažem, nije im ga Mojsije dao. Dao im ga je moj Otac. A sada vam nudi kruh s neba, istinski kruh.
33 Pravi je Božji kruh onaj koga je Bog poslao s neba i koji svijetu daje život.'
34 'Gospodine,' kazaše, 'daj nam uvijek toga kruha.'
35 Isus im odgovori: 'Ja sam kruh života. Tko dolazi k meni, neće nikad više ogladnjeti. Koji vjeruju u mene, neće ožednjeti nikada.
36 Ali, kao što vam rekoh, gledali ste me, a ipak ne vjerujete.
37 Ali svi oni koje mi je Otac dao, doći će k meni a takve sigurno neću odbaciti.
38 Jer ja sam sišao s neba da vršim volju Boga koji me poslao, a ne svoju volju.
39 A Božja je volja da ne izgubim nijednoga od onih koje mi je on dao, nego da ih u posljednji dan uskrisim u vječni život.
40 Jer je volja mojeg Oca da svatko tko vidi njegova Sina i tko vjeruje u njega ima vječni život te da ga ja uskrisim u posljednji dan.'
41 židovi su počeli mrmljati protiv njega zato što je o sebi rekao: 'Ja sam kruh koji je sišao s neba.'
42 'Pa to je Isus, Josipov sin
43 Ali Isus im odgovori: 'Ne prigovarajte međusobno!
44 Nitko ne može doći k meni ako ga ne privuče Otac koji me je poslao, a ja ću sve takve oživjeti u posljednji dan.
45 Kao što je zapisano u Svetome pismu: "Svi će biti učenici Božji.'[e] Kojima Otac govori i koji primaju njegovu pouku, doći će k meni.
46 To ne znači da je netko vidio Oca, jer sam ga jedini vidio ja koji od njega dolazim.
47 Zaista vam kažem, tko vjeruje u mene, ima vječni život.
48 Ja sam kruh života.
49 Vaši su preci jeli manu u pustinji, ali svi su poumirali.
50 Ovaj kruh s neba, međutim, svakomu tko ga jede daje vječni život.
51 Ja sam živi kruh koji je sišao s neba. Jede li tko ovaj kruh, živjet će zauvijek. Kruh koji ću ja dati jest moje tijelo što ću ga predati za život svijeta.'
52 Nato se židovi počnu međusobno prepirati govoreći: 'Kako nam ovaj može dati svoje tijelo za jelo?'
53 Isus im zato ponovno reče: 'Zaista vam kažem, ne jedete li tijela Sina Čovječjega i ne pijete li njegove krvi, ne možete u sebi imati vječni život.
54 Ali tko god jede moje tijelo i pije moju krv, ima vječni život i ja ću ga uskrisiti u posljednji dan.
55 Jer je moje tijelo prava hrana, a moja krv pravo piće.
56 Tko jede moje tijelo i tko pije moju krv, ostaje u meni i ja ostajem u njemu.
57 Kao što me je poslao živi Otac i kao što ja živim zaradi Oca, tako će i oni koji mene blaguju živjeti zaradi mene.
58 Ja sam pravi kruh koji je sišao s neba, a ne onakav kakav su jeli vaši oci i svejedno pomrli. Tko jede ovaj kruh, živjet će zauvijek.'
59 To je rekao poučavajući u sinagogi u Kafarnaumu.
Mnogi učenici napuštaju Isusa
60 Mnogi njegovi učenici kazaše: 'To su vrlo teške riječi. Tko bi razumio što je htio reći?'
61 Isus je znao da njegovi učenici prigovaraju pa im reče: 'Zar vas to sablažnjava?
62 A što ćete pomisliti ako vidite Sina Čovječjega kako se vraća u nebo?
63 Sveti Duh je taj koji daje vječni život. Ljudskim naporima ne može se ništa postignuti. A same riječi koje sam vam rekao jesu Duh i život.
64 Pa ipak, neki od vas mi ne vjeruju.' Jer je Isus od početka znao tko u njega ne vjeruje i tko je onaj koji će ga izdati.
65 I još reče: 'Na to sam mislio kad sam vam rekao da nitko ne može doći k meni ako ga Otac ne privuče.'
66 Mnogi se učenici tada povuku i nisu ga više slijedili.
67 Tada se Isus okrene Dvanaestorici i upita ih: 'Hoćete li i vi otići?'
68 Šimun Petar mu odgovori: 'Gospodine, kome da odemo? Samo ti imaš riječi koje daju vječni život,
69 a mi vjerujemo i znamo da si ti Svetac Božji.'
70 Zatim im Isus reče: 'S
71 Govorio je o Judi, sinu Šimuna Iškariotskoga, jednome od Dvanaestorice koji ga je poslije izdao.

New King James Version
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.

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand
6 After this, Jesus crossed over to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (or Tiberias). 2 A large crowd followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he was performing on those who were sick. 3 Jesus went up on the hillside and sat down there with his disciples. 4 The Jewish Passover Festival was near.
5 When Jesus looked up and saw a huge crowd coming toward him, he asked Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 But Jesus was saying this to test him, for he himself knew what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii[a] worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to have just a little.”
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, 9 “There’s a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what is that for so many people?”
10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, so they sat down. There were about five thousand men.
11 Then Jesus took the loaves and, after giving thanks, he distributed pieces to those who were seated. He also did the same with the fish—as much as they wanted.
12 When the people were full, he told his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over so that nothing is wasted.” 13 So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with pieces from the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.
14 When the people saw the miraculous sign Jesus did, they said, “This really is the Prophet who is coming into the world.”
Jesus Walks on Water
15 When Jesus realized that they intended to come and take him by force to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, 17 got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. 18 A strong wind started to blow, and the sea became rough.
19 After they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea toward their boat, and they were afraid.
20 But he said to them, “It is I. Do not be afraid!”
21 Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
Bread From Heaven
22 The next day, the crowd that stayed on the other side of the sea noticed that only one boat[b] was there. They also knew that Jesus had not stepped into the boat with his disciples, but they had gone away without him. 23 Other boats from Tiberias came to shore near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord gave thanks. 24 When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum looking for Jesus. 25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”
26 Jesus answered them, “Amen, Amen, I tell you: You are not looking for me because you saw the miraculous signs, but because you ate the loaves and were filled. 27 Do not continue to work for the food that spoils, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.”
28 So they said to him, “What should we do to carry out the works of God?”
29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God: that you believe in the one he sent.”
30 Then they asked him, “So what miraculous sign are you going to do, that we may see it and believe you? What miraculous sign are you going to perform? 31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, just as it is written, ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”[c]
32 Jesus said to them, “Amen, Amen, I tell you: Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but my Father gives you the real bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 “Sir,” they said to him, “give us this bread all the time!”
35 “I am the Bread of Life,” Jesus told them. “The one who comes to me will never be hungry, and the one who believes in me will never be thirsty. 36 But I said to you that you have also seen me, and you do not believe. 37 Everyone the Father gives me will come to me, and the one who comes to me I will never cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my will, but the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me: that I should lose none of those he has given me, but raise them up on the Last Day. 40 For this is the will of my Father: that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him may have eternal life. And I will raise him up on the Last Day.”
41 So the Jews started grumbling about him, because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” 42 They asked, “Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? So how can he say,[d] ‘I have come down from heaven’?”
43 Jesus answered them, “Stop grumbling among yourselves. 44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the Last Day. 45 It is written in the Prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’[e] Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. 46 I am not saying that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God. He is the one who has seen the Father. 47 Amen, Amen, I tell you: The one who believes in me[f] has eternal life.
48 “I am the Bread of Life. 49 Your fathers ate manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he will live forever. The bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”
52 At that, the Jews argued among themselves, “How can this man give us his[g] flesh to eat?”
53 So Jesus said to them, “Amen, Amen, I tell you: Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life in yourselves. 54 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the Last Day. 55 For my flesh is real food, and my blood is real drink. 56 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. 57 Just as the living Father sent me 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, not like your[h] fathers ate and died. The one who eats this bread will live forever.”
59 He said these things while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum. 60 When they heard it, many of his disciples said, “This is a hard teaching! Who can listen to it?”
61 But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, asked them, “Does this cause you to stumble in your faith? 62 What if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? 63 The Spirit is the one who gives life. The flesh does not help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning those who would not believe and the one who would betray him. 65 He said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is given to him by my Father.”
66 After this, many of his disciples turned back and were not walking with him anymore. 67 So Jesus asked the Twelve, “You do not want to leave too, do you?”
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom will we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God.”[i]
70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!” 71 He meant Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, one of the Twelve, because Judas was going to betray Jesus.
