New King James Version
An Invitation to Abundant Life
55 “Ho! (A)Everyone who thirsts,
Come to the waters;
And you who have no money,
(B)Come, buy and eat.
Yes, come, buy wine and milk
Without money and without price.
2 Why do you [a]spend money for what is not bread,
And your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
And let your soul delight itself in abundance.
3 Incline your ear, and (C)come to Me.
Hear, and your soul shall live;
(D)And I will make an everlasting covenant with you—
The (E)sure mercies of David.

John 6:48-58
New King James Version
48 (A)I am the bread of life. 49 (B)Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 (C)This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread (D)which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and (E)the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
52 The Jews therefore (F)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 (G)you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 (H)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 [a]food indeed, and My blood is [b]drink indeed. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood (I)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 (J)This is the bread which came down from heaven—not (K)as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
