John 6:27-59 Labour not for the meat which is perishable, but for that meat which endureth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give you: for him hath the Father sealed, even God.

Haweis⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ Labour not for the meat which is perishable, but for that meat which endureth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give you: for him hath the Father sealed, even God. ²⁸ Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we may work the works of God? ²⁹ Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye should believe on him whom he hath sent. ³⁰ Then said they to him, What miracle therefore dost thou, that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work? ³¹ Our fathers did eat manna in the wilderness; as it is written, "He gave them bread from heaven to eat." ³² Then said Jesus unto them, Verily, verily, I tell you, It was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the real bread from heaven. ³³ For he that cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world, is the bread of God. ³⁴ Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. ³⁵ Then said Jesus to them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst more. ³⁶ But I have told you, That though ye have seen me, yet ye have not believed. ³⁷ Every individual which the Father giveth me will come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in nowise cast out. ³⁸ For I came down from heaven, not with a view to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me. ³⁹ Now this is the will of the Father who sent me, That every thing which he hath given me I should not be deprived of it, but raise it up at the last day. ⁴⁰ And this is the will of him that sent me, That every one who seeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴¹ Then the Jews murmured against him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. ⁴² And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how then saith this man, That I came down from heaven? ⁴³ Jesus answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves. ⁴⁴ No man can come to me, except the Father who hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, And "they shall all be taught of God." Every one therefore who heareth from the Father, and learneth, cometh to me. ⁴⁶ Not that any man hath seen the Father, except he that is with God, he hath seen the Father. ⁴⁷ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. ⁴⁸ I am the bread of life. ⁴⁹ Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and they are dead. ⁵⁰ This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that any person may eat of it, and never die. ⁵¹ I am the bread that giveth life, which came down from heaven: if any person eat of this bread, he shall live to eternity; and the bread indeed which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. ⁵² Then the Jews contended with each other, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? ⁵³ Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves. ⁵⁴ He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁵⁵ For my flesh truly is meat, and my blood truly is drink. ⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him. ⁵⁷ As the life-giving Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same shall live by me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as the manna your fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live to eternity. ⁵⁹ These things he spake in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
