John 6:33-58

CLV(i) 33 but My Father is giving you Bread out of heaven, the true, for the Bread of God is He Who is descending out of heaven and giving life to the world." 34 They said, then, to Him, "Lord! always be giving us this Bread!" 35 Jesus, then, said to them, "I am the Bread of life. He who is coming to Me should under no circumstances be hungering, and he who is believing in Me will under no circumstances ever be thirsting." 36 But I said to you that you have also seen Me and you are not believing Me. 37 All that which the Father is giving to Me shall be arriving to Me, and he who is coming to Me I should under no circumstances be casting out, 38 for I have descended from heaven, not that I should be doing My will, but the will of Him Who sends Me." 39 Now this is the will of Him Who sends Me, that all which He has given to Me, of it I should be losing nothing, but I shall be raising it in the last day." 40 For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who is beholding the Son and believing in Him may have life eonian, and I shall be raising him in the last day." 41 The Jews, then, murmured concerning Him, that He said, "I am the Bread which descends out of heaven." 42 And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, with whose father and mother we are acquainted? How, then, is he saying that 'Out of heaven have I descended'? 43 Jesus, then, answered and said to them, "Do not murmur with one another." 44 No one can come to Me if ever the Father Who sends Me should not be drawing him. And I shall be raising him in the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets: And they shall all be taught of God. Everyone, then, who hears from the Father and is learning the truth, is coming to Me." 46 Not that the Father has been seen by anyone, except by the One Who is from God. This One has seen the Father." 47 Verily, verily, I am saying to you that he who is believing in Me has life eonian." 48 I am the Bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died." 50 This is the Bread which is descending out of heaven that anyone may be eating of it and may not be dying. 51 I am the living Bread which descends out of heaven. If anyone should be eating of this Bread, he shall be living for the eon. Now the Bread also, which I shall be giving for the sake of the life of the world, is My flesh." 52 The Jews, then, fought with one another, saying, "How then can this one give us his flesh to eat? 53 Jesus, then, said to them, "Verily, verily, I am saying to you, If you should not be eating the flesh of the Son of Mankind and drinking His blood, you have no eonian life in yourselves." 54 He who is masticating My flesh and drinking My blood has life eonian, and I shall be raising him in the last day, 55 for My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink." 56 He who is masticating My flesh and drinking My blood is remaining in Me, and I in him." 57 According as the living Father commissions Me, I, also, am living because of the Father. And he who is masticating Me, he also will be living because of Me." 58 This is the Bread which descends out of heaven. Not according as the fathers ate and died; he who is masticating this Bread shall be living for the eon."
