John 6:32-58

MNT(i) 32 "In solemn truth I tell you," said Jesus in reply, "Moses did not give you the bread out of heaven, but my Father does give you the true bread out of heaven; 33 "for the bread of God is what come down from heaven, and gives life to the world." 34 "Ah, Sir," said they, "evermore give us this bread." 35 "I myself am the bread of life," answered Jesus; "he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst again. 36 "But as I told you, you have seen me, and yet you do not believe. 37 "Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will never reject. 38 "For I am come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me. 39 "And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the last day. 40 "For this is my Fathers will, that every one who beholds the Son and believes on him, shall have eternal life. and I will raise him up at the last day." 41 Then the Jews began to find fault with Jesus, because he said, "I am the bread which comes down out of heaven," and they kept asking. 42 "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph? Do we not know his father and mother? How is it that he now says, 'I have come down from heaven'?" 43 "Do not find fault with me among yourselves," 44 answered Jesus; "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him; then I will raise him up on the last day. 45 "It is written in the Prophets, "And they shall all of them be taught of God. Every one who has listened to the father and learns from him, comes to me. 46 "Not that any one has seen the Father, except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47 "I tell you solemnly that he who believes has eternal life. 48 "I am the bread of life. 49 "Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; yet they died. 50 "This is the bread that comes down from heaven, that one may eat thereof and never die. 51 "I myself am the living bread that has come down from heaven. Any one who eats this bread will live forever; and moreover, the bread which I will give is my flesh, given for the life of the world." 52 Then the Jews began to dispute among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" 53 "I tell you solemnly," said Jesus, "that unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 "He who feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55 "For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56 "He who feeds upon my flesh abides in me and I in him. 57 "Just as the living Father has sent me, and I live by the Father, so also that man who feeds on me shall live by me. 58 "This is the bread which came down from heaven; not such as your fathers ate and died, for he who feeds upon this bread shall live forever."
