20 “And you shall command the children of Israel to bring to you pure oil of pressed olive for the light, so that the lamps may always burn.
21 “In the Tabernacle of the Congregation, outside the veil which is before the Testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep order before the LORD from evening to morning, as an everlasting statute to their generations on behalf of the children of Israel.
6 After these things, Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is Tiberias.
2 And a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His miracles which He did on those who were diseased.
3 Then Jesus went up onto a mountain. And there He sat with His disciples.
4 Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Then Jesus lifted up His eyes. And seeing that a great multitude came to Him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread, so that these might eat?”
6 (He said this to test him. For He knew what he would do.)
7 Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denari worth of bread is not sufficient for them, if every one of them takes a little.”
8 Then Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, one of His disciples, said to Him,
9 “There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves, and two fishes. But what are they among so many?”
10 And Jesus said, “Make the men sit down. (Now there was much grass in that place.) Then the men sat down, about five thousand in number.
11 And Jesus took the bread, and gave thanks, and gave it to the disciples. And the disciples gave to those who were sitting down; and likewise of the fishes, as much as they wanted.
12 And when they were satisfied, He said to His disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which remain, so that nothing is lost.”
13 Then they gathered it up and filled twelve baskets with the broken pieces of the five barley loaves, which remained from those who had eaten.
14 Then the men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, “This is truly the Prophet Who is to come into the world.”
15 Therefore, when Jesus perceived that they would come and take Him to make him a king, He departed again into a mountain by Himself.
16 When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 and entered into a ship and went over the sea towards Capernaum. And now it was dark, and Jesus had not come to them.
18 And the sea arose with a great wind that blew.
19 And when they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus, walking on the sea and drawing near to the ship. So, they were afraid.
20 But He said to them, “It is Me! Do not be afraid!”
21 Then, willingly, they received Him into the ship. And immediately the ship arrived at the land where they were going.
22 The following day, the people who stood on the other side of the sea, saw that there was no other ship there except the one His disciples had entered. And they saw that Jesus had not gone into the ship with His disciples, but that His disciples had gone alone,
23 and that other ships had come from Tiberias near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24 Now when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also took ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
25 And when they had 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, “Truly, truly I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the miracles, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.
27 “Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food that endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man shall give to you. For God the Father has sealed Him.”
28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do so that we might work the works of God?”
29 Jesus answered, and said to them, “This is the work of God: that you believe in Him Whom He has sent.”
30 Therefore they said to Him, “What sign do you show us, then, so that we may see it and believe You? What work do You do?
31 “Our fathers ate Manna in the desert. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread from Heaven to eat.’”
32 Then Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from Heaven. But 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 Then they said to Him, “Lord, give us this bread at all times.”
35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. The one who comes to Me shall not hunger, and the one who believes in Me shall never thirst.
36 “But I said to you that you have also seen Me, and do not believe.
37 “All that the Father gives Me, shall come to Me. And the one who comes to Me, I shall not cast away.
38 “For I came down from Heaven, not to do My own will, but His will Who has sent Me.
39 “And this is the Father’s will (Who has sent Me): that of all which He has given Me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 “And this is the will of Him Who sent Me: that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in Him, should have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day.”
41 The Jews then grumbled at Him because He said, ‘I am the bread which has come 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 says, “I came down from Heaven?”
43 Then Jesus answered, and said to them, “Do not grumble among yourselves.
44 “No one can come to Me unless the Father, Who has sent Me, draws him. And I will raise him up at the last day.
45 “It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God’. Therefore, everyone who has heard, and has learned from the Father, comes to Me.
46 “Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He Who is from God; He has seen the Father.
47 “Truly, truly I say to you, the one who believes in Me has everlasting life.
48 “I am the bread of life.
49 “Your fathers ate Manna in the wilderness and are dead.
50 “This is the bread which comes down from Heaven, so that anyone who eats of it should not die.
51 “I am the living bread which came down from Heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever. And the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
52 Then the Jews argued among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”
53 Then Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His blood, you have no life in you.
54 “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 true food, and My blood is true drink.
56 “the one who eats My flesh, and drinks My blood, dwells in Me, and I in him.
57 “As the living Father has sent Me, so I live by the Father. And the one who feeds on Me, shall also live because of Me.
58 “This is the bread which came down from Heaven; not as your fathers have eaten Manna and are dead. The one who eats of this bread, shall live forever.”
59 These things He spoke in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.
60 Therefore, many of His disciples (when they heard this) said, “This is a hard saying. Who can hear it?”
61 But Jesus, knowing in Himself that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, “Does this offend you?
62 “What if, then, you should see the Son of Man ascend up where He was before?
63 “It is the Spirit that quickens. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are Spirit and life.
64 “But there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him).
65 And He said, “Therefore I said to you that no one can come to Me unless it is granted to him by My Father.”
66 From that time, many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him.
67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Will you also go away?”
68 Then Simon Peter answered Him, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.
69 “And we believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.”
70 Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is a demon?”
71 Now He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. For it was he who would betray Him, though he was one of the twelve.
3 My son, do not forget my Law. But let your heart keep my commandments.
2 For they shall increase the length of your days and the years of life, and your peace.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you. Bind them on your neck and write them upon the tablet of your heart.
4 So shall you find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart. And lean not to your own wisdom.
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your ways.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes. But fear the LORD and depart from evil.
8 So, health shall be to your core, and marrow to your bones.
9 Honor the LORD with your riches, and with the firstfruits of all your increase.
10 So shall your barns be filled with abundance. And your presses shall burst with new wine.
11 My son, do not refuse the chastening of the LORD, nor be grieved with His correction.
12 For the LORD corrects him whom He loves, even as the father does the child in whom he delights.
13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding.
14 For the merchandise thereof is better than the merchandise of silver. And the gain thereof is better than gold.
15 It is more precious than pearls. And all things that you can desire are not to be compared to her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her right hand, riches and glory.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasure; and all her paths, peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her. And blessed is he who retains her.
19 The LORD, by wisdom, has laid the foundation of the Earth, and has established the heavens through understanding.
20 By His knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
21 My son, do not let these things depart from your eyes, but observe wisdom and counsel.
22 So they shall be life to your soul, and grace to your neck.
23 Then shall you walk safely by the way. And your foot shall not stumble.
24 If you sleep, you shall not be afraid. And when you sleep, your sleep shall be sweet.
25 You shall not fear for any sudden fear, nor for destruction by the wicked, when it comes.
26 For the LORD shall be for your assurance and shall keep your foot from capture.
27 Do not withhold the good from the owners thereof, though there be power in your hand to do it.
28 Do not say to your neighbor, “Go and come again, and tomorrow I will give you,” if you have it now.
29 Intend no hurt against your neighbor, seeing he dwells by you without fear.
30 Do not strive with someone without cause (when he has done you no harm).
31 Do not be envious of the wicked man, nor choose any of his ways.
32 For the crooked is abomination to the LORD. But His secret is with the righteous.
33 The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked. But He blesses the habitation of the righteous.
34 With the scornful He scorns. But He gives grace to the humble.
35 The wise shall inherit glory; but fools, dishonor (though they be exalted).
2 Then, fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took with me Titus also.
2 And I went up by revelation and declared to them that Gospel which I preach among the Gentiles (but privately to those who were the chief, lest by any means I should run - or had run - in vain).
3 But not even Titus - who was with me, though he were a Grecian - was compelled to be circumcised,
4 This was because of the false brethren who were craftily sent in; and crept in privately to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might bring us into bondage.
5 But we gave them no place, not even for an hour, that the truth of the Gospel might continue with you.
6 But by those who seemed to be great, I was not taught (whatever they were in time past, I am nothing the better; God accepts no man’s person) For those who are the chief have added nothing to me above what I had.
7 But on the contrary, when they saw that the Gospel was committed to me over the uncircumcision, as the Gospel over the circumcision was to Peter:
8 (For he who was mighty by Peter in the Apostleship over the circumcision, was also mighty by me toward the Gentiles.)
9 And when James and Cephas and John knew of the grace that was given to me - who are counted as pillars - they gave to me and to Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should preach to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision,
10 warning only that we should remember the poor (which I was also diligent to do).
11 And when Peter had come to Antioch, I opposed him to his face. For he was to be condemned.
12 For before certain ones came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they had come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
13 And the other Jews likewise played the hypocrites with him. So much so that Barnabas was led away with them by their hypocrisy.
14 But when I saw that they did not go the right way to the truth of the Gospel, I said to Peter before all, “If you, being a Jew, live as the Gentiles, and not like the Jews, why constrain the Gentiles to do like the Jews?
15 “We, who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners,
16 “know that a man is not justified by the works of the Law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ. Even we, I say, have believed in Jesus Christ; that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the Law. Because, by the works of the Law, no flesh shall be justified.
17 “If then, while we seek to be made righteous by Christ, we ourselves are found sinners, is Christ therefore the minister of sin? Absolutely not!
18 “For if I build again the things that I have destroyed, I make myself a trespasser.
19 “For I, through the Law, am dead to the Law, that I might live to God.
20 “I am crucified with Christ, but I live; yet not I anymore, but Christ lives in me. And, in that I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith in the Son of God, Who has loved me and given Himself for me.
21 “I do not abrogate the grace of God. For if righteousness is by the Law, then Christ died for nothing.”
