Jesus therefore said to them,“ Most certainly, I tell you, it wasn’t Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.”They said therefore to him,“ Lord, always give us this bread.”Jesus said to them,“ I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you don’t believe.All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said,“ I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”They said,“ Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say,‘ I have come down out of heaven?’”Therefore Jesus answered them,“ Don’t murmur among yourselves.No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up in the last day.It is written in the prophets,‘ They will all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, comes to me.Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.I am the bread of life.Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying,“ How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”Jesus therefore said to them,“ Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don’t have life in yourselves.He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.This is the bread which came down out of heaven— not as our fathers ate the manna, and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
