John 6
New American Standard Bible
Five Thousand Men Fed
6 After these things (A)Jesus went away to the other side of (B)the Sea of Galilee (or (C)Tiberias). 2 A large crowd was following Him, because they were watching the [a](D)signs which He was performing on those who were sick. 3 But (E)Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples. 4 Now (F)the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near. 5 So Jesus, after raising His eyes and seeing that a large crowd was coming to Him, *said to (G)Philip, “Where are we to buy bread so that these people may eat?” 6 But He was saying this only to (H)test him, for He Himself knew what He intended to do. 7 (I)Philip answered Him, “(J)Two hundred [b]denarii worth of bread is not enough for them, for each to receive just a little!” 8 One of His (K)disciples, (L)Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, *said to Him, 9 “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two (M)fish; but what are these for so many people?” 10 Jesus said, “Have the people recline to eat.” Now there was (N)plenty of grass in the place. So the men reclined, about [c](O)five thousand in number. 11 Jesus then took the loaves, and (P)after giving thanks He distributed them to those who were reclining; likewise also of the (Q)fish, as much as they wanted. 12 And when they had eaten their fill, He *said to His (R)disciples, “Gather up the leftover pieces so that nothing will be lost.” 13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve (S)baskets with pieces from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten. 14 Therefore when the people saw the [d]sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the (T)Prophet who is to come into the world.”
Jesus Walks on the Water
15 So Jesus, aware that they [e]intended to come and take Him by force (U)to make Him king, (V)withdrew again to (W)the mountain by Himself, alone.
16 Now when evening came, His (X)disciples went down to the sea, 17 and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea (Y)to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. 18 In addition, the sea began getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing. 19 Then, when they had rowed about [f]twenty-five or thirty stadia, they *saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat; and they were frightened. 20 But He *said to them, “It is I; [g](Z)do not be afraid.” 21 So they were willing to take Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.
22 The next day (AA)the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other small boat there except one, and that Jesus (AB)had not gotten into the boat with His disciples, but that His disciples had departed alone. 23 Other small boats came from (AC)Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the (AD)Lord (AE)had given thanks. 24 So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats and (AF)came to Capernaum, looking for Jesus. 25 And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “(AG)Rabbi, when did You get here?”
Words to the People
26 Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you (AH)seek Me, not because you saw [h](AI)signs, but because you ate some of the loaves and were filled. 27 Do not (AJ)work for the food that perishes, but for the food that lasts for (AK)eternal life, which (AL)the Son of Man will give you, for on Him the Father, God, (AM)has set His [i]seal.” 28 Therefore they said to Him, “What are we to do, so that we may accomplish the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is (AN)the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He (AO)has sent.” 30 So they said to Him, “(AP)What then are You doing as a (AQ)sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work are You performing? 31 (AR)Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘(AS)He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’” 32 Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread out of heaven. 33 For the bread of God is [j]that which (AT)comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.” 34 Then they said to Him, “Lord, always (AU)give us this bread.”
35 Jesus said to them, “(AV)I am the bread of life; the one who comes to Me will not be hungry, and the one who believes in Me (AW)will never be thirsty. 36 But (AX)I said to you that you have indeed seen Me, and yet you do not believe. 37 (AY)Everything that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I certainly will not cast out. 38 For (AZ)I have come down from heaven, (BA)not to do My own will, but (BB)the will of Him who (BC)sent Me. 39 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of (BD)everything that He has given Me I will (BE)lose nothing, but will (BF)raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who (BG)sees the Son and (BH)believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will (BI)raise him up on the last day.”
Words to the Jews
41 (BJ)So then the Jews were complaining about Him because He said, “I am the bread that (BK)came down out of heaven.” 42 And they were saying, “(BL)Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother (BM)we know? How does He now say, ‘(BN)I have come down out of heaven’?” 43 Jesus answered and said to them, “Stop complaining among yourselves. 44 No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me (BO)draws him; and I will (BP)raise him up on the last day. 45 It is written (BQ)in the Prophets: ‘(BR)And they shall all be (BS)taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me. 46 (BT)Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47 Truly, truly, I say to you, the one who believes (BU)has eternal life. 48 (BV)I am the bread of life. 49 (BW)Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread that (BX)comes down out of heaven, so that anyone may eat from it and (BY)not die. 51 (BZ)I am the living bread that (CA)came down out of heaven; if anyone eats from this bread, (CB)he will live forever; and the bread which I will give (CC)for the life of the world also is (CD)My flesh.”
52 (CE)Then the Jews (CF)began to argue with one another, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?” 53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of (CG)the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. 54 The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will (CH)raise him up on the last day. 55 For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. 56 The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood (CI)remains in Me, and I in him. 57 Just as the (CJ)living Father (CK)sent Me, and I live because of the Father, the one who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread that (CL)came down out of heaven, not as (CM)the fathers ate and died; the one who eats this bread (CN)will live forever.”
Words to the Disciples
59 These things He said (CO)in the synagogue as He taught (CP)in Capernaum.
60 So then many of His (CQ)disciples, when they heard this, said, “(CR)This statement is very [k]unpleasant; who can listen to it?” 61 But Jesus, (CS)aware that His disciples were complaining about this, said to them, “Is this [l](CT)offensive to you? 62 What then if you see (CU)the Son of Man (CV)ascending to where He was before? 63 (CW)It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh provides no benefit; (CX)the words that I have spoken to you are spirit, and are life. 64 But there are (CY)some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus (CZ)knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and (DA)who it was who would [m]betray Him. 65 And He was saying, “For this reason I have (DB)told you that no one can come to Me unless (DC)it has been granted him from the Father.”
Peter’s Confession of Faith
66 As a result of this many of His (DD)disciples (DE)left, and would no longer walk with Him. 67 So Jesus said to (DF)the twelve, “You do not want to leave also, do you?” 68 (DG)Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have (DH)words of eternal life. 69 And we have already believed and have come to know that You are (DI)the Holy One of God.” 70 Jesus answered them, “(DJ)Did I Myself not choose you, (DK)the twelve? And yet one of you is (DL)a devil.” 71 Now He meant Judas (DM)the son of Simon Iscariot; for he, (DN)one of (DO)the twelve, [n]was going to betray Him.

Waxaa Cunto La Siiyey Shan Kun Oo Nin(A)
6 Waxaas dabadeed Ciise wuxuu u kacay dhinaca kale oo badda Galili oo ahayd baddii Tiberiyas. 2 Dad badanna way raaceen, waayo, waxay arkeen calaamooyinkii uu ku sameeyey kuwii bukay. 3 Kolkaasaa Ciise buurta u baxay, halkaasna ayuu xertiisii la fadhiistay. 4 Markaasna waxaa dhowayd Iiddii Kormaridda ee ahayd iiddii Yuhuudda. 5 Haddaba Ciise intuu indhihiisii kor u qaaday, ayuu wuxuu arkay dad badan oo soo socda, wuxuuna Filibos ku yidhi, Xaggee baynu kibis ka soo iibinnaa inay kuwanu cunaan? 6 Wuxuu waxaas ugu yidhi inuu jirrabo isaga, waayo, isaga qudhiisu waa ogaa wuxuu samayn lahaa. 7 Filibos wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Laba boqol oo dinaar oo kibis ahi kuma filla in nin walba wax yar qaato. 8 Markaasaa xertiisii midkood oo Andaros la odhan jiray oo Simoon Butros walaalkiis ahaa wuxuu ku yidhi, 9 Halkan waxaa jooga wiil qaba shan kibsood oo shaciir ah iyo laba kalluun, laakiin waxaasi maxay u tarayaan dad sidan u badan? 10 Markaasaa Ciise yidhi, Dadka fadhiisiya. Meeshaasina waxay lahayd doog badan. Haddaba nimankii waa fadhiisteen, tiradooduna qiyaastii waxay ahayd shan kun. 11 Haddaba Ciise kibistuu qaaday, oo goortuu mahadnaqay ayuu u qaybiyey kuwii fadhiyey, sidaas oo kalena kalluunkii intay doonayeen. 12 Markay wada dhergeen, wuxuu xertiisii ku yidhi, Ururiya jajabkii hadhay, waxba yaanay ka hallaabin. 13 Sidaa aawadeed ayay ururiyeen, oo laba iyo toban dambiilood ayay ka buuxiyeen jajabkii ka hadhay kuwii shantii kibsood oo shaciirka ahayd cunay. 14 Haddaba dadkii markay arkeen calaamadii uu sameeyey, waxay yidhaahdeen, Runtii, kanu waa nebigii dunida iman lahaa.
Ciise Keli Buu U Baxay; Dabadeed Badduu Ku Dul Socday(B)
15 Ciise wuxuu gartay inay imanayaan inay qabtaan oo boqor ka dhigaan, sidaas daraaddeed ayuu mar kale keligiis buurta u baxay.
16 Markii makhribkii la gaadhay ayaa xertiisii badda u baxday. 17 Waxayna fuuleen doonni, oo badday ka tallaabayeen ilaa Kafarna'um. Oo markiiba gudcur bay ahayd, Ciisena weli uma uu iman. 18 Badduna way isku kacday, dabayl weyn oo dhacday aawadeed. 19 Haddaba markay seeb ku wadeen qiyaas shan iyo labaatan ama soddon [a]istaadiyon, waxay arkeen Ciise oo badda ku dul socda oo doonnida u soo dhowaanaya, wayna baqeen. 20 Laakiin wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa aniga ee ha baqina. 21 Sidaa aawadeed waxay doonayeen inay doonnida ku qaadaan, oo markiiba doonnidu waxay joogtay dhulkay u socdeen.
Dadku Waxay Doonayeen Calaamo
22 Maalintii labaad dadkii badnaa oo badda dhankeeda kale taagnaa, waxay arkeen inaan doonni kale joogin mid maahee, oo aan Ciisena taas la fuulin xertiisii, laakiin in xertiisii keligood baxeen. 23 Laakiin waxaa Tiberiyas ka yimid doonniyo, wayna u soo dhowaadeen meeshii kibistii lagu cunay markuu Rabbigu mahadnaqay dabadeed. 24 Markii dadkii badnaa arkeen inaan Ciise halkaas joogin iyo xertiisiiba, waxay fuuleen doonniyihii, wayna yimaadeen Kafarna'um, iyagoo Ciise doondoonaya.
25 Oo markay isaga ka heleen badda dhinaceeda kale, waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Macallimow, goormaad halkan timid?
Kibista Nolosha
26 Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Iima doondoontaan calaamooyinkii aad aragteen aawadood ee waa kibistii aad cunteen oo aad ka dheregteen aawadeed. 27 Ha u shaqaynina cuntada hallaabaysa, laakiin u shaqeeya cuntada sii jiraysa ilaa nolosha weligeed ah ee Wiilka Aadanahu idin siin doono, waayo, isaga Aabbaha Ilaaha ah ayaa caddeeyey. 28 Sidaas aawadeed waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Maxaannu yeelnaa si aannu shuqullada Ilaah u samayno? 29 Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Kanu waa shuqulkii Ilaah inaad rumaysataan kii uu soo diray. 30 Sidaa darteed waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaba calaamadee baad samaynaysaa inaannu aragno oo ku rumaysanno? Maxaad, samaynaysaa? 31 Awowayaasheen waxay cidlada ku cuneen [b]maannada sidii loo qoray, Wuxuu samada ka siiyey kibis ay cunaan. 32 Haddaba Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Muuse samada idinkama siin kibistii, laakiin Aabbahay baa samada idinka siiya kibista runta ah. 33 Waayo, kibista Ilaah waa kan samada ka soo degay oo dunida nolosha siiya. 34 Haddaba waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Sayidow, kibistan mar walba na sii. 35 Markaasaa Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay kibista nolosha. Kii ii yimaadaa ma gaajoon doono, kii i rumaystaana ma harraadi doono weligiis.
36 Laakiin waxaan idiin sheegay inaad i aragteen, mase rumaysataan. 37 Dhammaan wuxuu Aabbuhu i siiyo way ii iman doonaan, oo kii ii yimaadana ma eryi doono. 38 Waayo, waxaan samada uga soo degay ma aha inaan doonistayda yeelo, laakiinse inaan yeelo doonista kii i soo diray. 39 Tanu waa doonistii kii i soo diray in kuwii uu dhammaan i siiyey aanan midna ka lumin, laakiin inaan maalinta u dambaysa soo sara kiciyo. 40 Waayo, tanu waa doonistii Aabbahay in mid kasta oo Wiilka arka oo rumaysta uu nolosha weligeed ah lahaado, aniguna maalinta u dambaysa waan soo sara kicin doonaa.
41 Sidaas aawadeed Yuhuuddu way gunuuneceen, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay kibista samada ka soo degtay. 42 Waxayna yidhaahdeen, Kanu miyaanu ahayn Ciise, ina Yuusuf, kaannu aabbihiis iyo hooyadiis naqaan? Hadda sidee buu u leeyahay, Samada baan ka soo degay? 43 Markaasaa Ciise u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Ha ka gunuunecina dhexdiinna. 44 Ninna iima iman karo hadduusan Aabbihii i soo diray soo jiidin, aniguna maalinta u dambaysa waan soo sara kicin doonaa. 45 Waxaa ku qoran kitaabbadii nebiyada, Kulligood Ilaah baa wax bari doona. Mid kasta oo Aabbaha wax ka maqlay oo ka bartay waa ii yimaadaa. 46 Ma aha in nin arkay Aabbaha, kii Ilaah ka yimid mooyaane. Isagu waa arkay Aabbaha.
47 Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Kii i rumaystaa, wuxuu leeyahay nolosha weligeed ah. 48 Anigu waxaan ahay kibista nolosha. 49 Awowayaashiin waxay cidlada ku cuneen maannada, oo ay dhinteen. 50 Tanu waa kibistii samada ka soo degtay, in qof kasta cuno oo uusan dhiman. 51 Anigu waxaan ahay kibista nool ee samada ka soo degtay. Haddii qof uun kibistan cuno, weligiis wuu noolaan doonaa. Oo kibistaan siin doonaa waa jidhkayga, nolosha dunida aawadeed.
52 Sidaa aawadeed Yuhuuddu way isla murmeen iyagoo leh, Kanu sidee buu jidhkiisa inoo siin karaa inaannu cunno? 53 Ciise haddaba wuxuu ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Haddaydnan jidhkii Wiilka Aadanaha cunin oo dhiiggiisa cabbin nolosha kuma lihidin gudihiinna. 54 Oo kii jidhkayga cuna oo dhiiggayga cabba wuxuu leeyahay nolosha weligeed ah, oo maalinta u dambaysa waan soo sara kicin doonaa. 55 Waayo, runtii jidhkaygu waa cunto, dhiiggayguna runtii waa wax la cabbo. 56 Kii jidhkayga cuna oo dhiiggayga cabba wuu igu jiraa, anna waan ku jiraa isaga. 57 Sida Aabbaha nool ii soo diray, aniguna Aabbahaan u noolahay daraaddiis, sidaasaa kii i cunaa isaguna u nolaan doonaa daraadday. 58 Tanu waa kibista samada ka soo degtay, ma aha sida tii awowayaashiin cuneen oo ay dhinteen. Kii kibistan cunaa, weligiis wuu noolaan doonaa. 59 Waxyaalahaas ayuu [c]sunagogga kaga dhex hadlay intuu Kafarna'um wax ku barayay.
Xerta Shakiyaysa
60 Sidaa aawadeed xertiisii badidood markay maqleen, waxay yidhaahdeen, Hadalkaasu waa adag yahay. Yaa maqli kara? 61 Laakiin Ciise qudhiisu wuu ogaa in xertiisu taas ka gunuunacday, wuxuuna ku yidhi, Taas ma ka xun tihiin? 62 Haddaba maxay noqon haddaad aragtaan Wiilka Aadanaha oo kor ugu baxaya meeshuu markii hore joogi jiray? 63 Waa ruuxa kan wax nooleeyaa, jidhkuse waxba ma taro. Erayadii aan idinkula hadlayna waxay yihiin ruux iyo nololba. 64 Laakiin waxaa dhexdiina jira qaar idinka mid ah oo aan rumaysan. Waayo, tan iyo bilowgii Ciise waa garanayay kuway ahaayeen kuwa aan rumaysan iyo kuu ahaa kii gacangelin lahaa. 65 Markaasuu yidhi, Taas aawadeed waxaan idinku idhi, Qofna iima iman karo haddaan Aabbuhu awood siin.
66 Taas dabadeed xertiisii intii badnayd dib bay uga noqdeen, oo mar dambe lama ay socon.
Butros Qirashadii Uu Ciise Qiray
67 Haddaba Ciise wuxuu laba-iyo-tobankii ku yidhi, Idinkuna ma doonaysaan inaad tagtaan? 68 Markaasaa Simoon Butros wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Sayidow, yaannu u tagnaa? Adigaa haya erayadii nolosha weligeed ahe. 69 Annaguna waa rumaysannay, waana og nahay inaad tahay Kan Quduuska ah ee Ilaah. 70 Ciise wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Miyaanan idin dooran idinkoo laba iyo toban ah? Mid idinka mid ahna waa cifriid. 71 Wuxuu ka hadlay Yuudas ina Simoon Iskariyod, waayo, isaguu ahaa kan gacangelin lahaa, isagoo laba-iyo-tobankii ka mid ahaa.
