John 6:23-41
-
23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
-
24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
-
25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
-
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
-
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
-
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
-
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
-
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
-
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
-
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
-
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
-
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
-
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
-
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
-
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
-
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
-
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
-
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
-
41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
