John 6:35-50

English Standard Version

³⁵ Jesus said to them, ^(A)“I am the bread of life; ^(B)whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. ³⁶ But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. ^37 (C)All that ^(D)the Father gives me will come to me, and ^(E)whoever comes to me I will never cast out. ³⁸ For ^(F)I have come down from heaven, not to do ^(G)my own will but ^(H)the will of him ^(I)who sent me. ³⁹ And ^(J)this is the will of him who sent me, ^(K)that I should lose nothing of ^(L)all that he has given me, but ^(M)raise it up on the last day. ⁴⁰ For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who ^(N)looks on the Son and ^(O)believes in him ^(P)should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”

⁴¹ So the Jews grumbled about him, because he said, ^(Q)“I am the bread that came down from heaven.” ⁴² They said, ^(R)“Is not this Jesus, ^(S)the son of Joseph, whose father and mother ^(T)we know? How does he now say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?” ⁴³ Jesus answered them, “Do not grumble among yourselves. ⁴⁴ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me ^(U)draws him. And ^(V)I will raise him up on the last day. ⁴⁵ It is written in the Prophets, ^(W)‘And they will all be ^(X)taught by God.’ ^(Y)Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me— ^46 (Z)not that anyone has seen the Father except ^(AA)he who is from God; he ^(AB)has seen the Father. ⁴⁷ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(AC)whoever believes has eternal life. ^48 (AD)I am the bread of life. ^49 (AE)Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and ^(AF)they died. ^50 (AG)This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it ^(AH)and not die.
