then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed to them that were sate down; and likewise of the fishes, as much as they would.

when they were filled, he said to his disciples, gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.

So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which remained over unto them that had eaten.

The people, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, cry'd out, this is of a truth that prophet who was to come into the world.

Jesus therefore perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force, to make him king, withdrew again into the mountain himself alone.

but the sea ran high, by reason of the wind that blew hard.

The day following, the people who stay'd on the other side of the sea, perceiving that there had been only that single vessel in which his disciples were embark'd, that Jesus did not embark with his disciples, but that his disciples were gone away alone: (however,

(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)

the people likewise seeing that Jesus was not in those barks, nor his disciples, went on board them, and cross'd to Capernaum in quest of Jesus.

"In truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "it is not on account of the signs which you saw that you are looking for me, but because you had the bread to eat and were satisfied.

work not for the food which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto everlasting life, and which the son of man shall give unto you, for to him it is that the father, that is God, has given his credentials.

then said they to him, what shall we do, that our works may he agreeable to God?

Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

They said therefore unto him, What then doest thou for a sign, that we may see, and believe thee? what workest thou?

Jesus therefore said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, It was not Moses that gave you the bread out of heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread out of heaven.

for he who is descended from heaven, and gives life to the world, is the bread that is truely divine.

Ah, Lord, they said, give us that bread for ever!

Jesus answer'd, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me, shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me, shall never thirst.

but I have already told you, that tho' you have seen me, you do not believe.

all those whom my father gives me, shall come to me; and I will not reject any that come to me.

for I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

and the will of him who sent me is this, that I should not lose any one of those he has given me, but should raise them again at the last day: this,

I say, is the will of him that sent me, that every one who observes the son, and believeth on him, should have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Now the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven,"

And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father, and mother we know? How is it then that he sayeth, I came down from heaven?"

No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day.

It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard from the Father, and hath learned, cometh unto me.

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he that is from God, he hath seen the Father.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth hath eternal life.

"I am that bread of life.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat of it, and not die.

This is the bread which cometh down out of heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

I am the living bread, that is come down from heaven: whosoever shall eat of this bread, shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

At that, the Jews argued among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”

Then said Jesus unto them, I tell you truly, that unless ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath eternal life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

For my flesh is truly food, and my blood is truly drink: he that feedeth on my flesh and drinketh my blood,

He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him.

As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall live because of me.

This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eateth this bread shall live for ever.

But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said unto them, Doth this cause you to stumble?

It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, are are life.

But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who it was that should betray him.

And he said, For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it be given unto him of the Father.

From that time many of his disciples withdrew, and associated no longer with him.

Simon Peter answered Him, "To whom can we go, Lord? You have the message that gives eternal life,

And we have believed and know that thou art the Holy One of God.

Now he spake of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

After that Jesus went about into Galilee, and would not go about in Jewry, for the Jews sought to kill him.

But the feast of the Jews was near, that of the pitching of tents.

His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

for no body acts in private, that designs to distinguish himself: since you do such things, shew yourself to the world.

For even Jesus' [half-] brothers did not believe in Him [i.e., at that time].

The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

That was what he told them, and he stayed on in Galilee.

The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is that man?

And there was a great deal of grumbling about Him among the crowds, some saying that He was a good man, and others that He was not, but was misleading the masses.

No one, however, was speaking openly about him, for fear of the Jews. "But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

And the Jews marveled, saying, "How knoweth he the scriptures, seeing that he never learned?"

Jesus therefore answered them and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.

If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself.

He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

was it not Moses who gave you the law, and yet none of you observe that law?

Jesus answered them, I perform'd one single miracle on the sabbath, and does that alarm you?

Moses hath given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers); and on the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

If a man receiveth circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye wroth with me, because I made a man every whit whole on the sabbath?

Do not form superficial judgements, but form the judgements that are just."

Then some that belong'd to Jerusalem, said, is not this he whom they seek to kill?

And lo, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing unto him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ?

Jesus therefore cried in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, and know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

I do know him, for it is from him that I have come, and he sent me as his Messenger."

But of the multitude many believed on him; and they said, When the Christ shall come, will he do more signs than those which this man hath done?

The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they might take him.

Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.

The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go that we shall not find him? will he go unto the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come?

In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.

He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from within him shall flow rivers of living water.

But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believed on him were to receive: for the Spirit was not yet given ; because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?

so that the people were divided in their opinions about him.

The officers answered, "No man ever spoke like that!"

Is it not true that not any of the rulers or of the Pharisees have believed into him?

But this multitude that knoweth not the law are accursed.

Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them),

They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.

Search and see, that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. And every man went to his own house.

now Moses has ordain'd in the law, that such criminals should be stoned: but what is your opinion?

And this they said, trying him, that they might have whereof to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.

But when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

but they who heard that, being convicted by their own conscience, they all went old and young one after another, so that Jesus was left alone with the woman, who still kept her place.

Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Yea and if I judge, my judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

Yea and in your law it is written, that the witness of two men is true.

I am he that beareth witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

Jesus therefore repeated what he had said, "I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your incredulity, so that whither I go, ye cannot come."

The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?

I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am he , ye shall die in your sins.

They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.

I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.
