Old/New Testament

²² The day following, the people who stood on the other side of the sea saw that there had been no other boat there except the one his disciples had entered into, and that Jesus had not got in the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone. ²³ However, other boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they had eaten bread, when the Lord had blessed. ²⁴ Then, when the people saw that Jesus was not there nor his disciples, they also set off in boats and went to Capernaum seeking for 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, 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 Labour not for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures unto everlasting life, which food the Son of man will give to you. For him has God the Father sealed.

²⁸ Then they said to him, What should we do so that we can work the works of God? ²⁹ Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God: to believe on him whom he has sent.

³⁰ They said to him, What sign will you show then, so that we can see 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 Jesus said to them, Truly truly I say to you, Moses did not give you 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 forevermore.

³⁵ And Jesus said to them, I am that bread of life. He who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes on me shall never thirst. ³⁶ But I said to you that you have seen me, and yet do not believe. ³⁷ All whom the Father gives me shall come to me, and him who comes to me, I cast not away. ³⁸ For I came down from heaven not to do my own will, but the will of him who has sent me. ³⁹ And this is the will of the Father who has sent me: that of everything that 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 every person who sees the Son and believes on him should have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day.

⁴¹ The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am that bread that has come down from heaven. ⁴² And they said, Is this not Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that he says, I came down from heaven?

⁴³ Jesus answered and said to them, Do not murmur between 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.
