rsv - John:6:25-59

rsv@John:6:25 @ When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"

rsv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.

rsv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal."

rsv@John:6:28 @ Then they said to him, "What must we do, to be doing the works of God?"

rsv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."

rsv@John:6:30 @ So they said to him, "Then what sign do you do, that we may see, and believe you? What work do you perform?

rsv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, `He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"

rsv@John:6:32 @ Jesus then said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

rsv@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven, and gives life to the world."

rsv@John:6:34 @ They said to him, "Lord, give us this bread always."

rsv@John:6:35 @ Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.

rsv@John:6:36 @ But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe.

rsv@John:6:37 @ All that the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will not cast out.

rsv@John:6:38 @ For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me;

rsv@John:6:39 @ and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:40 @ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."

rsv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

rsv@John:6:42 @ They said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, `I have come down from heaven'?"

rsv@John:6:43 @ Jesus answered them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

rsv@John:6:44 @ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, `And they shall all be taught by God.' Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me.

rsv@John:6:46 @ Not that any one has seen the Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father.

rsv@John:6:47 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life.

rsv@John:6:48 @ I am the bread of life.

rsv@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

rsv@John:6:50 @ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die.

rsv@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh."

rsv@John:6:52 @ The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

rsv@John:6:53 @ So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you;

rsv@John:6:54 @ he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:55 @ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

rsv@John:6:56 @ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.

rsv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.

rsv@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not such as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live for ever."

rsv@John:6:59 @ This he said in the synagogue, as he taught at Caper'na-um.
