John 6
1 After this, Jesus left to go to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (also known as the Sea of Tiberias).
ⲁ̅ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲙⲏ ⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲉ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲓⲃⲉⲣⲓⲁⲇⲟⲥ.
2 A large crowd was following him, for they'd seen his miracles of healing.

3 Jesus went up a hill and sat down there with his disciples.

4 The time for the Jewish festival of the Passover was approaching.

5 When Jesus looked up, and saw a large crowd coming towards him, he asked Philip, “Where can we buy enough bread to feed all these people?”
ⲉ̅ⲉⲧⲁϥϥⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏ ϣ ⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲛⲁϫⲉⲙ ⲱⲓⲕ ⲑⲱⲛ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ.
6 He only asked this to see how Philip would respond, because Jesus already knew what he was going to do.
ⲋ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲟϥ ⲉϥⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲁϥⲣⲱⲟⲩϣ ⳿ⲉⲁⲓϥ.
7 “Two hundred silver coins wouldn't buy enough bread to give everyone even just a little,” Philip replied.

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up.

9 “There's a boy here who has five barley loaves and a couple of fish, but what good is that when there are so many people?”
ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲃ̅ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲫⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓⲙⲏϣ.
10 “Have everybody sit down,” Jesus said. There was plenty of grass there, so they all sat down, the men numbering around five thousand.
ⲓ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲣⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲓⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲣⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲥⲓⲙ ⲧⲟⲩ⳿ⲏⲡⲓ ⲉⲩⲉⲣ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛϣⲟ.
11 Jesus took the bread, gave thanks, and had it handed out to the people as they sat there. Then he did the same with the fishes, making sure the people had as much as they wanted.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁϥϭⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁϥϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲑⲣⲟⲧⲉⲃ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲫⲏ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϣϥ.
12 Once they were all full, he said to his disciples, “Collect what's left over so nothing is wasted.”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
13 So they collected and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves the people had eaten.

14 When the people saw this miracle, they said, “Surely this is the Prophet who was to come into the world.”

15 Jesus realized that they were about to force him to become their king, so he left them and went up into the hills to be by himself.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩϣ ⳿ⲉ⳿Ⲓ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲗⲙⲉϥ ⳿ⲉⲁⲓϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲭⲱⲣⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲁ ⲣⲟⲩϩⲓ ⲇⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
17 climbed into a boat, and headed across the water towards Capernaum. By now it was night and Jesus had not joined them yet.

18 A strong wind began blowing and the sea grew rough.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϩⲥⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲓϥⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛⲑⲏⲟⲩ.
19 When they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, coming towards the boat. They were very frightened.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲧⲁⲇⲓⲟⲛ ⲓⲉ ⲗ̅ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥϧⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟϯ.
20 “Don't be afraid!” he told them. “It's me.”

21 Then they gladly took him into the boat, and immediately they reached the shore where they were going.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲗⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁ ⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩⲛⲁϣⲉ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
22 The next day the crowd that had stayed on the other side of the sea noticed that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not got into the boat with his disciples, but they had left without him.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥϯ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϩⲓⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲕⲉϫⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϣⲉ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲟⲩ.
23 Then other boats arrived from Tiberias, landing near to the place where they'd eaten the bread once the Lord had blessed it.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲉⲉϫⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲓⲃⲉⲣⲓⲁⲇⲟⲥ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲁϥϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪.
24 Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went over to Capernaum, looking for Jesus.

25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”

26 “I tell you the truth,” Jesus replied, “you're looking for me because you ate as much bread as you wanted, not because you understood the miracles.

27 Don't be preoccupied about food that doesn't last, but concentrate on the lasting food of eternal life which the Son of man will give you, for God the Father has placed his seal of approval on him.” (aiōnios g166)

52 Then the Jews argued heatedly among themselves. “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” they asked.

59 Jesus explained this while he was teaching in a synagogue at Capernaum.
