祂的许多门徒听了，就议论说：“这话实在难懂，谁能接受呢？”

On hearing it, many of his disciples said,“ This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”

Jesus’ disciples heard this. Many of them said,“ This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”

When many of his disciples heard it, they said,“ This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?”

Many of his disciples said,“ This is very hard to understand. How can anyone accept it?”

Therefore, when many of his disciples heard this, they said,“ This teaching is hard. Who can accept it?”

Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said,“ This is a hard saying; who can understand it?”

Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?

Therefore, when many of His disciples heard this, they said,“ This teaching is hard! Who can accept it?”

Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard[ this], said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

Then many of his disciples, when they heard these things, said,“ This is a difficult saying! Who can understand it?”

Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said,“ This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”

As a result of this many of His disciples left, and would no longer walk with Him.

So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him,“ If you continue in My word, then you are truly My disciples;

So then the Jews were complaining about Him because He said,“ I am the bread that came down out of heaven.”And they were saying,“ Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does He now say,‘ I have come down out of heaven’?”

Concerning him we have much to say, and it is difficult to explain, since you have become poor listeners.
