John 6:27-33

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁷ Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto life everlasting, which the Son of man will give you. For him hath God, the Father, sealed.

²⁸ They said therefore unto him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?

²⁹ Jesus answered, and said to them: This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he hath sent.

³⁰ They said therefore to him: What sign therefore dost thou shew, that we may see, and may 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 to them: Amen, amen I say to you; Moses gave you not bread from heaven, but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

³³ For the bread of God is that which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world.
