< John 6 >

1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is also called the Sea of Tiberias.
After these thinges, Iesus went his way ouer the sea of Galile, which is Tiberias.
2 A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick.
And a great multitude followed him, because they sawe his miracles, which hee did on them that were diseased.
3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples.
Then Iesus went vp into a mountaine, and there he sate with his disciples.
4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
Now the Passeouer, a feast of the Iewes, was neere.
5 Jesus therefore, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great multitude was coming to him, said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?”
Then Iesus lift vp his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude came vnto him, hee sayde vnto Philippe, Whence shall we buy breade, that these might eate?
6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
(And this he sayde to prooue him: for hee himselfe knewe what he would doe.)
7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may receive a little.”
Philippe answered him, Two hundreth penie worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that euery one of them may take a litle.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,
Then saide vnto him one of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peters brother,
9 “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?”
There is a little boy heere, which hath fiue barlie loaues, and two fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
And Iesus saide, Make ye people sit downe. (Nowe there was much grasse in that place.) Then the men sate downe in nomber, about fiue thousande.
11 Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down, likewise also of the fish as much as they desired.
And Iesus tooke the bread, and gaue thanks, and gaue to the disciples, and the disciples, to them that were set downe: and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”
And when they were satisfied, he said vnto his disciples, Gather vp the broken meat which remaineth, that nothing be lost.
13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.
Then they gathered it together, and filled twelue baskets with the broken meat of the fiue barly loaues, which remained vnto them that had eaten.
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”
Then the men, when they had seene the miracle that Iesus did, saide, This is of a trueth that Prophet that should come into the world.
15 Jesus therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
When Iesus therfore perceiued that they would come, and take him to make him a King, hee departed againe into a mountaine himselfe alone.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.
When euen was nowe come, his disciples went downe vnto the sea,
17 They entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.
And entred into a shippe, and went ouer the sea, towardes Capernaum: and nowe it was darke, and Iesus was not come to them.
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
And the Sea arose with a great winde that blewe.
19 When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
And when they had rowed about fiue and twentie, or thirtie furlongs, they sawe Iesus walking on the sea, and drawing neere vnto the ship: so they were afraide.
20 But he said to them, “It is I. Do not be afraid.”
But he said vnto them, It is I: be not afraid.
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
Then willingly they receiued him into the ship, and the ship was by and by at the lande, whither they went.
22 On the next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except the one in which his disciples had embarked, and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.
The day following, the people which stoode on the other side of the sea, saw that there was none other ship there, saue that one, whereinto his disciples were entred, and that Iesus went not with his disciples in the ship, but that his disciples were gone alone,
23 However, boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
And that there came other ships from Tiberias neere vnto the place where they ate the bread, after the Lord had giuen thankes.
24 When the multitude therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
Nowe when the people sawe that Iesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also tooke shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Iesus.
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”
And when they had founde him on the other side of the sea, they sayde vnto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.
Iesus answered them; and sayde, Verely, verely I say vnto you, ye seeke me not because ye sawe the miracles, but because yee ate of ye loaues, and were filled.
27 Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to consummate (aiōnios g166) life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him."
Labour not for ye meate which perisheth, but for the meate that endureth vnto euerlasting life, which the Sonne of man shall giue vnto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. (aiōnios g166)
28 They said therefore to him, “What must we do, that we may work the works of God?”
Then sayde they vnto him, What shall we doe, that we might worke the workes of God?
29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
Iesus answered, and sayde vnto them, This is the woorke of God, that yee beleeue in him, whome he hath sent.
30 They said therefore to him, “What then do you do for a sign, that we may see and believe you? What work do you do?
They sayde therefore vnto him, What signe shewest thou then, that we may see it, and beleeue thee? what doest thou woorke?
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”
Our fathers did eate Manna in the desart, as it is written, Hee gaue them bread from heauen to eate.
32 Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
Then Iesus said vnto them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, Moses gaue you not that bread from heauen, but my Father giueth you that true bread from heauen.
33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.”
For the breade of God is hee which commeth downe from heauen, and giueth life vnto the world.
34 They said therefore to him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
Then they said vnto him, Lord, euermore giue vs this bread.
35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
And Iesus saide vnto them, I am that bread of life: he that commeth to me, shall not hunger, and he that beleeueth in me, shall neuer thirst.
36 But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.
But I said vnto you, that ye also haue seene me, and beleeue not.
37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.
All that the Father giueth me, shall come to mee: and him that commeth to me, I cast not away.
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
For I came downe from heauen, not to do mine owne wil, but his wil which hath sent me.
39 This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.
And this is the Fathers will which hath sent mee, that of all which hee hath giuen mee, I should lose nothing, but shoulde raise it vp againe at the last day.
40 This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him should have consummate (aiōnios g166) life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
And this is the will of him that sent mee, that euery man which seeth the Sonne, and beleeueth in him, should haue euerlasting life: and I will raise him vp at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
41 The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, “I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”
The Iewes then murmured at him because hee sayde, I am that bread, which is come downe from heauen.
42 They said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say, ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”
And they said, Is not this Iesus that sonne of Ioseph, whose father and mother wee knowe? howe then sayth he, I came downe from heauen?
43 Therefore Jesus answered them, “Do not murmur among yourselves.
Iesus then answered, and saide vnto them, Murmure not among your selues.
44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up in the last day.
No man can come to mee, except the Father, which hath sent mee, drawe him: and I will raise him vp at the last day.
45 It is written in the prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, comes to me.
It is written in the Prophetes, And they shalbe al taught of God. Euery man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, commeth vnto me:
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.
Not that any man hath seene the Father, saue hee which is of God, hee hath seene the Father.
47 Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Verely, verely I say vnto you, hee that beleeueth in me, hath euerlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
48 I am the bread of life.
I am that bread of life.
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.
Your fathers did eate Manna in the wildernesse, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
This is that breade, which commeth downe from heauen, that hee which eateth of it, shoulde not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live in this age (aiōn g165). Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."
I am that liuing breade, which came downe from heauen: if any man eate of this breade, hee shall liue for euer: and the bread that I will giue, is my flesh, which I will giue for the life of the world. (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
Then the Iewes stroue among themselues, saying, Howe can this man giue vs his flesh to eate?
53 Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life in yourselves.
Then Iesus saide vnto them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, Except yee eate the flesh of the Sonne of man, and drinke his blood, yee haue no life in you.
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has consummate (aiōnios g166) life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
Whosoeuer eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternall life, and I will raise him vp at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
For my flesh is meat in deede, and my blood is drinke in deede.
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
Hee that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live because of me.
As that liuing Father hath sent me, so liue I by the Father, and he that eateth me, euen he shall liue by me.
58 This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as our fathers ate, and died. He who eats this bread will live in this age (aiōn g165)."
This is that bread which came downe from heauen: not as your fathers haue eaten Manna, and are deade. Hee that eateth of this bread, shall liue for euer. (aiōn g165)
59 He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
These things spake he in the Synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”
Many therefore of his disciples (when they heard this) sayde, This is an hard saying: who can heare it?
61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?
But Iesus knowing in himselfe, that his disciples murmured at this, saide vnto them, Doeth this offend you?
62 Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
What then if yee should see that Sonne of man ascend vp where he was before?
63 It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.
It is the spirite that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing: the woordes that I speake vnto you, are spirite and life.
64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.
But there are some of you that beleeue not: for Iesus knewe from the beginning, which they were that beleeued not, and who shoulde betray him.
65 He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”
And hee saide, Therefore saide I vnto you, that no man can come vnto mee, except it be giuen vnto him of my Father.
66 At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.
From that time, many of his disciples went backe, and walked no more with him.
67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, “You do not also want to go away, do you?”
Then sayde Iesus to the twelue, Will yee also goe away?
68 Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Then Simon Peter answered him, Master, to whome shall we goe? thou hast the wordes of eternall life: (aiōnios g166)
69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
And we beleeue and knowe that thou art that Christ that Sonne of the liuing God.
70 Jesus answered them, “Did not I choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?”
Iesus answered them, Haue not I chosen you twelue, and one of you is a deuill?
71 Now he spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.
Now he spake it of Iudas Iscariot the sonne of Simon: for hee it was that shoulde betraie him, though he was one of the twelue.
