John 6
Today's New International Version Help
6Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias),G3326G5023G2424G565G4008G2281G1056G5085
2and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs he had performed by healing the sick.G2532G4183G3793G190G846G3754G3708G846G4592G3739G4160G1909G770
3Then Jesus went up on a mountainside and sat down with his disciples.G1161G2424G424G1519G3735G2532G1563G2521G3326G846G3101
4The Jewish Passover Festival was near.G1161G3957G1859G2453G2258G1451
5When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?"G2424G3767G1869G3788G2532G2300G3754G4183G3793G2064G4314G846G3004G4314G5376G4159G59G740G2443G3778G5315
6He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.G1161G5124G3004G3985G846G1063G846G1492G5101G3195G4160
7Philip answered him, "It would take almost a year's wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!"G5376G611G846G1250G1220G740G714G3756G714G846G2443G1538G846G2983G5100G1024
8Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up,G1520G1537G846G3101G406G4613G4074G80G3004G846
9"Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?"G2076G1520G3808G5602G3739G2192G4002G2916G740G2532G1417G3795G235G5101G2076G5023G1519G5118
10Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there).G1161G2424G2036G4160G444G377G1161G2258G4183G5528G1722G5117G3767G435G377G706G5616G4000
11Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.G1161G2424G2983G740G2532G2168G1239G3101G1161G3101G345G2532G3668G1537G3795G3745G2309
12When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, "Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted."G1161G5613G1705G3004G846G3101G4863G2801G4052G3363G5100G622
13So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.G3767G4863G2532G1072G1427G2894G2801G1537G4002G2916G740G3739G4052G977
14After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, "Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world."G3767G444G1492G4592G3739G2424G4160G3004G3754G3778G2076G230G4396G2064G1519G2889
15Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.G2424G3767G1097G3754G3195G2064G2532G726G846G726G2443G4160G846G935G402G3825G1519G3735G846G3441
16When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake,G1161G5613G3798G1096G846G3101G2597G1909G2281
17where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them.G2532G1684G1519G4143G2064G4008G2281G1519G2584G2532G1096G2235G4653G2532G2424G2064G3756G2064G4314G846
18A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough.G5037G2281G1326G3173G417G4154
19When they had rowed about three or three and a half miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened.G3767G1643G5613G4002G1501G2228G5144G4712G2334G2424G4043G1909G2281G2532G1096G1451G4143G2532G5399
20But he said to them, "It is I; don't be afraid."G1161G3004G846G1510G1473G5399G3361G5399
21Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.G3767G2309G2983G846G1519G4143G2532G2112G4143G1096G1909G1093G1519G3739G5217
22The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone.G1887G3793G3588G2476G4008G2281G1492G3754G2258G3756G243G4142G1563G1508G1565G1520G1519G3739G846G3101G1684G2532G3754G2424G4897G3756G4897G846G3101G1519G4142G235G846G3101G565G3441
23Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.G235G1161G2064G243G4142G1537G5085G1451G5117G3699G5315G740G2962G2168
24Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus.G3753G3793G3767G1492G3754G2424G2076G3756G1563G3761G846G3101G846G2532G1684G1519G4143G2532G2064G1519G2584G2212G2424
25When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, "Rabbi, when did you get here?"G2532G2147G846G4008G2281G2036G846G4461G4219G1096G5602
26Jesus answered, "Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill.G2424G611G846G2532G2036G281G281G3004G5213G2212G3165G3756G3754G1492G4592G235G3754G5315G1537G740G2532G5526
27Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the Father has placed his seal of approval."G2038G3361G1035G3588G622G235G1035G3588G3306G1519G166G2222G3739G5207G444G1325G5213G1063G5126G4972G2316G3962G4972
28Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?"G3767G2036G4314G846G5101G4160G4160G2443G2038G2041G2316
29Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."G2424G611G2532G2036G846G5124G2076G2041G2316G2443G4100G1519G3739G1565G649
30So they asked him, "What sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do?G2036G3767G846G5101G4592G4160G4771G3767G2443G1492G2532G4100G4671G5101G2038
31Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.' "G2257G3962G5315G3131G1722G2048G2531G2076G1125G1325G846G740G1537G3772G5315
32Jesus said to them, "Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.G3767G2424G2036G846G281G281G3004G5213G3475G1325G5213G3756G740G1537G3772G235G3450G3962G1325G5213G228G740G1537G3772
33For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world."G1063G740G2316G2076G3588G2597G1537G3772G2532G1325G2222G2889
34"Sir," they said, "always give us this bread."G3767G2036G4314G846G2962G3842G1325G2254G5126G740
35Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.G1161G2424G2036G846G1473G1510G740G2222G2064G4314G3165G3364G3983G2532G4100G1519G1691G1372G3364G4455G1372
36But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe.G235G2036G5213G3754G3708G2532G3708G3165G2532G4100G3756
37All whom the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.G3956G3739G3962G1325G3427G2240G4314G1691G2532G2064G4314G3165G1544G3364G1544G1854
38For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.G3754G2597G1537G3772G3756G2443G4160G1699G2307G235G2307G3992G3165
39And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day.G1161G5124G2076G3962G2307G3588G3992G3165G2443G3956G3739G1325G3427G622G3361G1537G846G235G450G846G450G1722G2078G2250
40For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day."G1161G5124G2076G2307G3992G3165G2443G3956G3588G2334G5207G2532G4100G1519G846G2192G166G2222G2532G1473G450G846G450G2078G2250
41At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven."G2453G3767G1111G4012G846G3754G2036G1473G1510G740G3588G2597G1537G3772
42They said, "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I came down from heaven'?"G2532G3004G2076G3756G3778G2424G5207G2501G3739G3962G2532G3384G2249G1492G4459G3767G3778G3004G3754G2597G1537G3772
43"Stop grumbling among yourselves," Jesus answered.G2424G3767G611G2532G2036G846G1111G3361G3326G240
44"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day.G3762G1410G2064G4314G3165G3362G3962G3588G3992G3165G1670G846G2532G1473G450G846G450G2078G2250
45It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me.G2076G1125G1722G4396G2532G2071G3956G1318G2316G3956G3767G191G2532G3129G3844G3962G2064G4314G3165
46No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father.G3756G3754G5100G3708G3962G1508G3588G3844G5607G2316G3778G3708G3962
47Very truly I tell you, whoever believes has eternal life.G281G281G3004G5213G4100G1519G1691G2192G166G2222
48I am the bread of life.G1473G1510G740G2222
49Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.G5216G3962G5315G3131G1722G2048G2532G599
50But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which people may eat and not die.G3778G2076G740G3588G2597G1537G3772G3363G5100G5315G1537G846G2532G3363G599
51I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."G1473G1510G2198G740G3588G2597G1537G3772G1437G5100G5315G1537G5127G740G2198G1519G165G1161G2532G740G3739G1473G1325G2076G3450G4561G3739G1473G1325G5228G2222G2889
52Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"G2453G3767G3164G4314G240G3004G4459G1410G3778G1325G2254G4561G5315
53Jesus said to them, "Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.G3767G2424G2036G846G281G281G3004G5213G3362G5315G4561G5207G444G2532G4095G846G129G2192G3756G2222G1722G1438
54Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.G5176G3450G4561G2532G4095G3450G129G2192G166G2222G2532G1473G450G846G450G2078G2250
55For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.G1063G3450G4561G2076G1035G230G2532G3450G129G2076G4213G230
56Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.G5176G3450G4561G2532G4095G3450G129G3306G1722G1698G2504G1722G846
57Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.G2531G2198G3962G649G3165G2504G2198G1223G3962G2532G5176G3165G2548G2198G1223G1691
58This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever."G3778G2076G740G3588G2597G1537G3772G3756G2531G5216G3962G5315G3131G2532G599G5176G5126G740G2198G1519G165
59He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.G5023G2036G1722G4864G1321G1722G2584
60On hearing it, many of his disciples said, "This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?"G4183G3767G1537G846G3101G191G2036G3778G2076G4642G3056G5101G1410G191G846
61Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, "Does this offend you?G1161G2424G1492G1722G1438G3754G846G3101G1111G4012G5127G2036G846G5124G4624G5209
62Then what if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before!G3767G1437G2334G5207G444G305G3699G2258G4386
63The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit and life.G2076G4151G2227G4561G3756G5623G3762G4487G3739G1473G2980G5213G2076G4151G2532G2076G2222
64Yet there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.G235G1526G5100G1537G5216G3739G4100G3756G1063G2424G1492G1537G746G5101G1526G4100G3361G2532G5101G2076G3860G846
65He went on to say, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them."G2532G3004G1223G5124G2046G5213G3754G3762G1410G2064G4314G3165G3362G5600G1325G846G1537G3450G3962
66From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.G1537G5127G4183G846G3101G565G1519G3694G2532G4043G3765G3326G846
67"You do not want to leave too, do you?" Jesus asked the Twelve.G3767G2036G2424G1427G3361G2309G5210G2532G5217
68Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.G3767G4613G4074G611G846G2962G4314G5101G565G2192G4487G166G2222
69We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God."G2532G2249G4100G2532G1097G3754G4771G1488G5547G5207G2198G2316
70Then Jesus replied, "Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!"G2424G611G846G1586G3756G1473G1586G5209G1427G2532G1520G1537G5216G2076G1228
71(He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, who, though one of the Twelve, was later to betray him.)G1161G3004G2455G2469G4613G1063G3778G3195G3860G846G5607G1520G1537G1427
