< John 6 >

1 After these things Jesus went away beyond the Sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),
ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܙܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܕܛܒܪܝܘܤ
2 and there was following Him a great multitude, because they were seeing His signs that He was doing on the ailing;
ܘܐܙܠܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܒܟܪܝܗܐ
3 and Jesus went up to the mountain, and He was sitting with His disciples there,
ܘܤܠܩ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܘܬܡܢ ܝܬܒ ܗܘܐ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ
4 and the Passover was near, the celebration of the Jews.
ܩܪܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܕܥܕܐ ܕܦܨܚܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ
5 Jesus then having lifted up [His] eyes and having seen that a great multitude comes to Him, says to Philip, “From where will we buy loaves, that these may eat?”
ܘܐܪܝܡ ܥܝܢܘܗܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܚܙܐ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܢܙܒܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܢܐܟܠܘܢ ܗܠܝܢ
6 And this He said, trying him, for He Himself had known what He was about to do.
ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܟܕ ܡܢܤܐ ܠܗ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܡܢܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܠܡܥܒܕ
7 Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little”;
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܕܡܐܬܝܢ ܕܝܢܪܝܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܠܐ ܤܦܩ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܕ ܩܠܝܠ ܩܠܝܠ ܚܕ ܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܢܤܒ
8 one of His disciples—Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter—says to Him,
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܢܕܪܐܘܤ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܕܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ
9 “There is one little boy here who has five barley loaves and two fishes, but these—what are they to so many?”
ܐܝܬ ܬܢܢ ܛܠܝܐ ܚܕ ܕܐܝܬ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܚܡܫ ܓܪܝܨܢ ܕܤܥܪܐ ܘܬܪܝܢ ܢܘܢܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܢܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ
10 And Jesus said, “Make the men to sit down”; and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܥܒܕܘ ܐܢܫܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܤܬܡܟܘܢ ܥܤܒܐ ܕܝܢ ܤܓܝ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܒܕܘܟܬܐ ܗܝ ܘܐܤܬܡܟܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܒܡܢܝܢܐ ܚܡܫܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ
11 and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed [them] to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.
ܘܫܩܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܒܪܟ ܘܦܠܓ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܕܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܡܢ ܢܘܢܐ ܟܡܐ ܕܨܒܘ
12 And when they were filled, He says to His disciples, “Gather together the broken pieces that are left over, that nothing may be lost”;
ܘܟܕ ܤܒܥܘ ܐܡܪ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܟܢܫܘ ܩܨܝܐ ܕܝܬܪܘ ܕܠܐ ܢܐܒܕ ܡܕܡ
13 they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.
ܘܟܢܫܘ ܘܡܠܘ ܬܪܥܤܪ ܩܘܦܝܢܝܢ ܩܨܝܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܬܪܘ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܟܠܘ ܡܢ ܚܡܫܐ ܠܚܡܝܢ ܕܤܥܪܐ
14 The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said, “This is truly the Prophet who is coming into the world”;
ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܚܙܘ ܐܬܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܗܢܘ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ
15 Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to seize Him by force that they may make Him king, retired again to the mountain Himself alone.
ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܕܥܬܝܕܝܢ ܕܢܐܬܘܢ ܢܚܛܦܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܢܥܒܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܡܠܟܐ ܘܫܢܝ ܠܗ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܗܘ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ
16 And when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
ܘܟܕ ܗܘܐ ܪܡܫܐ ܢܚܬܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܝܡܐ
17 and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come to them,
ܘܝܬܒܘ ܒܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܬܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܠܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܘܚܫܟܬ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܘܠܐ ܐܬܝ ܗܘܐ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ
18 the sea also—a great wind blowing—was being raised,
ܝܡܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܕܩܦ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܢܫܒܬ ܗܘܬ
19 having pushed onward, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near to the boat, and they were afraid;
ܘܕܒܪܘ ܐܝܟ ܐܤܛܕܘܬܐ ܥܤܪܝܢ ܘܚܡܫܐ ܐܘ ܬܠܬܝܢ ܘܚܙܘ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܟܕ ܡܗܠܟ ܥܠ ܝܡܬܐ ܘܟܕ ܩܪܒ ܠܘܬ ܤܦܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܕܚܠܘ
20 and He says to them, “I AM; do not be afraid”;
ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠܘܢ
21 they were willing then to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat came to the land to which they were going.
ܘܨܒܘ ܗܘܘ ܕܢܩܒܠܘܢܝܗܝ ܒܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܘܒܗ ܒܫܥܬܐ ܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܗܝ ܗܘܬ ܠܘܬ ܐܪܥܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܙܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ
22 On the next day, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one—that into which His disciples entered—and that Jesus did not go in with His disciples into the little boat, but His disciples went away alone
ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܒܬܪܗ ܗܘ ܟܢܫܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܒܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܚܙܘ ܕܤܦܝܢܬܐ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܗܝ ܕܤܠܩܘ ܠܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܥܠ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܥܡ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܤܦܝܢܬܐ
23 (and other little boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate the bread, the LORD having given thanks),
ܐܬܝ ܗܘܝ ܕܝܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܐܚܪܢܝܬܐ ܡܢ ܛܒܪܝܘܤ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܟܠܘ ܒܗ ܠܚܡܐ ܟܕ ܒܪܟ ܝܫܘܥ
24 when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor His disciples, they also entered into the boats themselves, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;
ܘܟܕ ܚܙܐ ܗܘ ܟܢܫܐ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܬܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܦܠܐ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܤܠܩܘ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܐܬܘ ܠܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܘܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ
25 and having found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when have You come here?”
ܘܟܕ ܐܫܟܚܘܗܝ ܒܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܪܒܢ ܐܡܬܝ ܐܬܝܬ ܠܗܪܟܐ
26 Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were satisfied;
ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܐܟܠܬܘܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܤܒܥܬܘܢ
27 do not work for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to continuous life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for the Father sealed Him—[even] God.” (aiōnios g166)
ܠܐ ܬܦܠܚܘܢ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܕܐܒܕܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܕܡܩܘܝܐ ܠܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܢܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܗܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܒܐ ܚܬܡ ܐܠܗܐ (aiōnios g166)
28 Therefore they said to Him, “What may we do that we may work the works of God?”
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܢܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܕܢܦܠܘܚ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ
29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you may believe in Him whom He sent.”
ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܢܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܒܡܢ ܕܗܘ ܫܕܪ
30 Therefore they said to Him, “What sign, then, do You do, that we may see and may believe You? What do You work?
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܢܐ ܐܬܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܕܢܚܙܐ ܘܢܗܝܡܢ ܒܟ ܡܢܐ ܤܥܪ ܐܢܬ
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, according as it is having been written: He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat.”
ܐܒܗܝܢ ܡܢܢܐ ܐܟܠܘ ܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܕܠܚܡܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܐܟܠ
32 Jesus, therefore, said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread out of Heaven;
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܘܫܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܒܝ ܝܗܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ
33 for the bread of God is Him coming down out of Heaven, and giving life to the world.”
ܠܚܡܗ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ ܕܢܚܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܚܝܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ
34 Therefore they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܪܢ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܗܒ ܠܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܗܢܐ
35 And Jesus said to them, “I AM the bread of life; he who is coming to Me may not hunger, and he who is believing in Me may not thirst—at any time;
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܡܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܠܐ ܢܟܦܢ ܘܡܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܒܝ ܠܐ ܢܨܗܐ ܠܥܠܡ
36 but I said to you that you also have seen Me, and you do not believe;
ܐܠܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ
37 all that the Father gives to Me will come to Me; and him who is coming to Me, I will never cast outside,
ܟܠ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܐܒܝ ܠܘܬܝ ܢܐܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܠܘܬܝ ܢܐܬܐ ܠܐ ܐܦܩܗ ܠܒܪ
38 because I have come down out of Heaven, not that I may do My will, but the will of Him who sent Me.
ܕܢܚܬܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܐܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܝ ܐܠܐ ܕܐܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ
39 And this is the will of the Father who sent Me, that all that He has given to Me, I may lose none of it, but may raise it up in the last day;
ܗܢܘ ܕܝܢ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܕܟܠ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܐܘܒܕ ܡܢܗ ܐܠܐ ܐܩܝܡܝܘܗܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ
40 and this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who is beholding the Son, and is believing in Him, may have continuous life, and I will raise him up in the last day.” (aiōnios g166)
ܗܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܒܝ ܕܟܠ ܕܚܙܐ ܠܒܪܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢ ܒܗ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܗ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܩܝܡܝܘܗܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ (aiōnios g166)
41 The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at Him, because He said, “I AM the bread that came down out of Heaven”;
ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܪܛܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܢܚܬܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ
42 and they said, “Is this not Jesus, the Son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? How then does this One say, I have come down out of Heaven?”
ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܪܗ ܕܝܘܤܦ ܗܘ ܕܚܢܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܘܐܝܟܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܗܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܢܚܬܬ
43 Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, “Do not murmur with one another;
ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܪܛܢܘܢ ܚܕ ܥܡ ܚܕ
44 no one is able to come to Me if the Father who sent Me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;
ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܢܓܕܗ ܐܒܐ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܩܝܡܝܘܗܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ
45 it is having been written in the Prophets: And they will all be taught of God; everyone, therefore, who heard from the Father, and learned, comes to Me;
ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܒܢܒܝܐ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܡܠܦܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܫܡܥ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢ ܐܒܐ ܘܝܠܦ ܡܢܗ ܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ
46 not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God, He has seen the Father.
ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܚܙܐ ܐܢܫ ܠܐܒܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ ܗܘ ܚܙܐ ܠܐܒܐ
47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who is believing in Me has continuous life; (aiōnios g166)
ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܒܝ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōnios g166)
48 I AM the bread of life;
ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܚܝܐ
49 your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died;
ܐܒܗܝܟܘܢ ܐܟܠܘ ܡܢܢܐ ܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܘܡܝܬܘ
50 this is the bread that is coming down out of Heaven, that anyone may eat of it, and not die.
ܗܢܘ ܕܝܢ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܢܚܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܢܐܟܘܠ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܗ ܘܠܐ ܢܡܘܬ
51 I AM the living bread that came down out of Heaven; if anyone may eat of this bread he will live—throughout the age; and the bread also that I will give is My flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.” (aiōn g165)
ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܚܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܢܚܬܬ ܘܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܢܐܟܘܠ ܡܢ ܗܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܢܚܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܘܠܚܡܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܬܠ ܦܓܪܝ ܗܘ ܕܥܠ ܐܦܝ ܚܝܘܗܝ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, “How is this One able to give us [His] flesh to eat?”
ܢܨܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܚܕ ܥܡ ܚܕ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܗܢܐ ܦܓܪܗ ܕܢܬܠ ܠܢ ܠܡܐܟܠ
53 Jesus, therefore, said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if you may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves;
ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܠܐ ܬܐܟܠܘܢ ܦܓܪܗ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܘܬܫܬܘܢ ܕܡܗ ܠܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܒܩܢܘܡܟܘܢ
54 he who is eating My flesh, and is drinking My blood, has continuous life, and I will raise him up in the last day; (aiōnios g166)
ܡܢ ܕܐܟܠ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܦܓܪܝ ܘܫܬܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܝ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܩܝܡܝܘܗܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ (aiōnios g166)
55 for My flesh is truly food, and My blood is truly drink;
ܦܓܪܝ ܓܝܪ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܘܕܡܝ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܫܬܝܐ
56 he who is eating My flesh, and is drinking My blood, remains in Me, and I in him.
ܡܢ ܕܐܟܠ ܦܓܪܝ ܘܫܬܐ ܕܡܝ ܒܝ ܡܩܘܐ ܘܐܢܐ ܒܗ
57 According as the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating Me, even that one will live because of Me;
ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܐܒܐ ܚܝܐ ܘܐܢܐ ܚܝ ܐܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܐܒܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܢܐܟܠܢܝ ܐܦ ܗܘ ܢܚܐ ܡܛܠܬܝ
58 this is the bread that came down out of Heaven; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread will live—throughout the age.” (aiōn g165)
ܗܢܘ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܢܚܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܟܠܘ ܐܒܗܝܟܘܢ ܡܢܢܐ ܘܡܝܬܘ ܡܢ ܕܐܟܠ ܗܢܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܢܚܐ ܠܥܠܡ (aiōn g165)
59 He said these things in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum;
ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܟܕ ܡܠܦ ܒܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ
60 many, therefore, of His disciples having heard, said, “This word is hard; who is able to hear it?”
ܘܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܩܫܝܐ ܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܡܢܘ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܫܡܥܗ
61 And Jesus having known in Himself that His disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, “Does this stumble you?
ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܕܪܛܢܝܢ ܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܕܐ ܡܟܫܠܐ ܠܟܘܢ
62 If then you may behold the Son of Man going up where He was before?
ܐܢ ܬܚܙܘܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܕܤܠܩ ܠܐܬܪ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ
63 It is the Spirit that is giving life; the flesh does not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;
ܪܘܚܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܚܝܐ ܦܓܪܐ ܠܐ ܡܗܢܐ ܡܕܡ ܡܠܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܢܝܢ ܘܚܝܐ ܐܢܝܢ
64 but there are certain of you who do not believe”; for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver Him up,
ܐܠܐ ܐܝܬ ܐܢܫܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܡܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܘܡܢܘ ܗܘ ܕܡܫܠܡ ܠܗ
65 and He said, “Because of this I have said to you, No one is able to come to Me if it may not have been given him from My Father.”
ܘܐܡܪ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܐܠܐ ܝܗܝܒ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܐܒܝ
66 From this [time] many of His disciples went away backward, and were no longer walking with Him,
ܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܙܠܘ ܠܒܤܬܪܗܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܡܗ
67 Jesus, therefore, said to the Twelve, “Do you also wish to go away?”
ܘܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܬܪܥܤܪܬܗ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܙܠ
68 Simon Peter, therefore, answered Him, “Lord, to whom will we go? You have sayings of continuous life; (aiōnios g166)
ܥܢܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܪܝ ܠܘܬ ܡܢ ܢܐܙܠ ܡܠܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ (aiōnios g166)
69 and we have believed, and we have known, that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
ܘܚܢܢ ܗܝܡܢܢ ܘܝܕܥܢ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܝܐ
70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you—the Twelve? And of you—one is a devil.”
ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܐ ܓܒܝܬܟܘܢ ܠܬܪܥܤܪ ܘܡܢܟܘܢ ܚܕ ܤܛܢܐ ܗܘ
71 And He spoke of Judas, [son] of Simon Iscariot, for he was about to deliver Him up, being one of the Twelve.
ܐܡܪ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܠ ܝܗܘܕܐ ܒܪ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܤܟܪܝܘܛܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܥܬܝܕ ܗܘܐ ܕܢܫܠܡܝܘܗܝ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܬܪܥܤܪ
