41 The Jews then murmured at 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 is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? |
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. |
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which 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 be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. |
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. |
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. |
48 I am that bread of life. |
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. |
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. |
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. |
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? |
53 Then Jesus said unto 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 you. |
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. |
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. |
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. |
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. |
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. |
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. |
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? |
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? |
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? |
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. |
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. |
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. |
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. |
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? |
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. |
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. |
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? |
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve. |
