John 6:60-66
Legacy Standard Bible
60 Therefore many of His (A)disciples, when they heard this said, “(B)This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?” 61 But Jesus, (C)knowing in Himself that His disciples were grumbling at this, said to them, “Does this (D)cause you to stumble? 62 What then if you see (E)the Son of Man (F)ascending to where He was before? 63 (G)The Spirit is the One who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; (H)the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. 64 But there are (I)some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus (J)knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and (K)who it was that would [a]betray Him. 65 And He was saying, “For this reason I have (L)said to you, that no one can come to Me unless (M)it has been granted him from the Father.”

Holman Christian Standard Bible
Many Disciples Desert Jesus
60 Therefore, when many of His disciples heard this, they said, “This teaching is hard! Who can accept[a] it?”
61 Jesus, knowing in Himself(A) that His disciples were complaining about this, asked them, “Does this offend you? 62 Then what if you were to observe the Son of Man(B) ascending(C) to where He was before? 63 The Spirit(D) is the One who gives life. The flesh doesn’t help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. 64 But there are some among you who don’t believe.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning(E) those who would not[b] believe and the one who would betray(F) Him.) 65 He said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me(G) unless it is granted to him by the Father.”
66 From that moment many of His disciples turned back and no longer accompanied Him.
