< 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.
μετα ταυτα απηλθεν ο ιησους περαν της θαλασσης της γαλιλαιας της τιβεριαδος
2 A large crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he did on those who were sick.
ηκολουθει δε αυτω οχλος πολυς οτι εθεωρουν τα σημεια α εποιει επι των ασθενουντων
3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples.
ανηλθεν δε εις το ορος ιησους και εκει εκαθητο μετα των μαθητων αυτου
4 Now the Passover, the Jewish festival, was near.
ην δε εγγυς το πασχα η εορτη των ιουδαιων
5 Jesus therefore lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a large crowd was coming to him, said to Philip, "Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?"
επαρας ουν τους οφθαλμους ο ιησους και θεασαμενος οτι πολυς οχλος ερχεται προς αυτον λεγει προς φιλιππον ποθεν αγορασωμεν αρτους ινα φαγωσιν ουτοι
6 This he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
τουτο δε ελεγεν πειραζων αυτον αυτος γαρ ηδει τι εμελλεν ποιειν
7 Philip answered him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that everyone of them may receive a little."
απεκριθη αυτω {VAR2: [ο] } φιλιππος διακοσιων δηναριων αρτοι ουκ αρκουσιν αυτοις ινα εκαστος βραχυ {VAR2: [τι] } λαβη
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,
λεγει αυτω εις εκ των μαθητων αυτου ανδρεας ο αδελφος σιμωνος πετρου
9 "There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?"
εστιν παιδαριον ωδε ος εχει πεντε αρτους κριθινους και δυο οψαρια αλλα ταυτα τι εστιν εις τοσουτους
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.
ειπεν ο ιησους ποιησατε τους ανθρωπους αναπεσειν ην δε χορτος πολυς εν τω τοπω ανεπεσαν ουν οι ανδρες τον αριθμον ως πεντακισχιλιοι
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.
ελαβεν ουν τους αρτους ο ιησους και ευχαριστησας διεδωκεν τοις ανακειμενοις ομοιως και εκ των οψαριων οσον ηθελον
12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, "Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost."
ως δε ενεπλησθησαν λεγει τοις μαθηταις αυτου συναγαγετε τα περισσευσαντα κλασματα ινα μη τι αποληται
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.
συνηγαγον ουν και εγεμισαν δωδεκα κοφινους κλασματων εκ των πεντε αρτων των κριθινων α επερισσευσαν τοις βεβρωκοσιν
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, "This is truly the Prophet who comes into the world."
οι ουν ανθρωποι ιδοντες {VAR1: α εποιησεν σημεια } {VAR2: ο εποιησεν σημειον } ελεγον οτι ουτος εστιν αληθως ο προφητης ο ερχομενος εις τον κοσμον
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.
ιησους ουν γνους οτι μελλουσιν ερχεσθαι και αρπαζειν αυτον ινα ποιησωσιν βασιλεα ανεχωρησεν παλιν εις το ορος αυτος μονος
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
ως δε οψια εγενετο κατεβησαν οι μαθηται αυτου επι την θαλασσαν
17 and they entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
και εμβαντες εις πλοιον ηρχοντο περαν της θαλασσης εις καφαρναουμ και σκοτια ηδη εγεγονει και ουπω εληλυθει προς αυτους ο ιησους
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
η τε θαλασσα ανεμου μεγαλου πνεοντος διεγειρετο
19 When therefore they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
εληλακοτες ουν ως σταδιους εικοσι πεντε η τριακοντα θεωρουσιν τον ιησουν περιπατουντα επι της θαλασσης και εγγυς του πλοιου γινομενον και εφοβηθησαν
20 But he said to them, "It is I. Do not be afraid."
ο δε λεγει αυτοις εγω ειμι μη φοβεισθε
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
ηθελον ουν λαβειν αυτον εις το πλοιον και ευθεως εγενετο το πλοιον επι της γης εις ην υπηγον
22 On the next day, the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except one, and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.
τη επαυριον ο οχλος ο εστηκως περαν της θαλασσης ειδον οτι πλοιαριον αλλο ουκ ην εκει ει μη εν και οτι ου συνεισηλθεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου ο ιησους εις το πλοιον αλλα μονοι οι μαθηται αυτου απηλθον
23 Other boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
αλλα ηλθεν {VAR1: πλοια } {VAR2: (πλοιαρια) } εκ τιβεριαδος εγγυς του τοπου οπου εφαγον τον αρτον ευχαριστησαντος του κυριου
24 When the crowd therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
οτε ουν ειδεν ο οχλος οτι ιησους ουκ εστιν εκει ουδε οι μαθηται αυτου ενεβησαν αυτοι εις τα πλοιαρια και ηλθον εις καφαρναουμ ζητουντες τον ιησουν
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"
και ευροντες αυτον περαν της θαλασσης ειπον αυτω ραββι ποτε ωδε γεγονας
26 Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were filled.
απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους και ειπεν αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ζητειτε με ουχ οτι ειδετε σημεια αλλ οτι εφαγετε εκ των αρτων και εχορτασθητε
27 Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him." (aiōnios )
εργαζεσθε μη την βρωσιν την απολλυμενην αλλα την βρωσιν την μενουσαν εις ζωην αιωνιον ην ο υιος του ανθρωπου υμιν δωσει τουτον γαρ ο πατηρ εσφραγισεν ο θεος (aiōnios )
28 They said therefore to him, "What must we do, that we may work the works of God?"
ειπον ουν προς αυτον τι ποιωμεν ινα εργαζωμεθα τα εργα του θεου
29 Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."
απεκριθη {VAR1: ο } {VAR2: [ο] } ιησους και ειπεν αυτοις τουτο εστιν το εργον του θεου ινα πιστευητε εις ον απεστειλεν εκεινος
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?
ειπον ουν αυτω τι ουν ποιεις συ σημειον ινα ιδωμεν και πιστευσωμεν σοι τι εργαζη
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, 'He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.'"
οι πατερες ημων το μαννα εφαγον εν τη ερημω καθως εστιν γεγραμμενον αρτον εκ του ουρανου εδωκεν αυτοις φαγειν
32 Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly, truly, 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.
ειπεν ουν αυτοις ο ιησους αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ου μωυσης {VAR1: εδωκεν } {VAR2: δεδωκεν } υμιν τον αρτον εκ του ουρανου αλλ ο πατηρ μου διδωσιν υμιν τον αρτον εκ του ουρανου τον αληθινον
33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world."
ο γαρ αρτος του θεου εστιν ο καταβαινων εκ του ουρανου και ζωην διδους τω κοσμω
34 They said therefore to him, "Lord, always give us this bread."
ειπον ουν προς αυτον κυριε παντοτε δος ημιν τον αρτον τουτον
35 Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not be hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης ο ερχομενος προς εμε ου μη πειναση και ο πιστευων εις εμε ου μη διψησει πωποτε
36 But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.
αλλ ειπον υμιν οτι και εωρακατε [με] και ου πιστευετε
37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. Him who comes to me I will in no way throw out.
παν ο διδωσιν μοι ο πατηρ προς εμε ηξει και τον ερχομενον προς {VAR1: με } {VAR2: εμε } ου μη εκβαλω εξω
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
οτι καταβεβηκα απο του ουρανου ουχ ινα ποιω το θελημα το εμον αλλα το θελημα του πεμψαντος με
39 This is the will of him who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.
τουτο δε εστιν το θελημα του πεμψαντος με ινα παν ο δεδωκεν μοι μη απολεσω εξ αυτου αλλα αναστησω αυτο {VAR2: [εν] } τη εσχατη ημερα
40 This is the will of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day." (aiōnios )
τουτο γαρ εστιν το θελημα του πατρος μου ινα πας ο θεωρων τον υιον και πιστευων εις αυτον εχη ζωην αιωνιον και αναστησω αυτον εγω {VAR2: [εν] } τη εσχατη ημερα (aiōnios )
41 The Jewish people therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down out of heaven."
εγογγυζον ουν οι ιουδαιοι περι αυτου οτι ειπεν εγω ειμι ο αρτος ο καταβας εκ του ουρανου
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?'"
και ελεγον {VAR1: ουχι } {VAR2: ουχ } ουτος εστιν ιησους ο υιος ιωσηφ ου ημεις οιδαμεν τον πατερα και την μητερα πως νυν λεγει οτι εκ του ουρανου καταβεβηκα
43 Therefore Jesus answered them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.
απεκριθη ιησους και ειπεν αυτοις μη γογγυζετε μετ αλληλων
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.
ουδεις δυναται ελθειν προς με εαν μη ο πατηρ ο πεμψας με ελκυση αυτον καγω αναστησω αυτον εν τη εσχατη ημερα
45 It is written in the Prophets, 'And they will all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to me.
εστιν γεγραμμενον εν τοις προφηταις και εσονται παντες διδακτοι θεου πας ο ακουσας παρα του πατρος και μαθων ερχεται προς εμε
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.
ουχ οτι τον πατερα εωρακεν τις ει μη ο ων παρα {VAR1: [του] } {VAR2: του } θεου ουτος εωρακεν τον πατερα
47 Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has everlasting life. (aiōnios )
αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ο πιστευων εχει ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios )
48 I am the bread of life.
εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.
οι πατερες υμων εφαγον εν τη ερημω το μαννα και απεθανον
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
ουτος εστιν ο αρτος ο εκ του ουρανου καταβαινων ινα τις εξ αυτου φαγη και μη αποθανη
51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh." (aiōn )
εγω ειμι ο αρτος ο ζων ο εκ του ουρανου καταβας εαν τις φαγη εκ τουτου του αρτου ζησει εις τον αιωνα και ο αρτος δε ον εγω δωσω η σαρξ μου εστιν υπερ της του κοσμου ζωης (aiōn )
52 The Jews therefore argued with one another, saying, "How can this one give us flesh to eat?"
εμαχοντο ουν προς αλληλους οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντες πως δυναται ουτος ημιν δουναι την σαρκα [αυτου] φαγειν
53 Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life in yourselves.
ειπεν ουν αυτοις {VAR1: [ο] } {VAR2: ο } ιησους αμην αμην λεγω υμιν εαν μη φαγητε την σαρκα του υιου του ανθρωπου και πιητε αυτου το αιμα ουκ εχετε ζωην εν εαυτοις
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios )
ο τρωγων μου την σαρκα και πινων μου το αιμα εχει ζωην αιωνιον καγω αναστησω αυτον τη εσχατη ημερα (aiōnios )
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
η γαρ σαρξ μου αληθης εστιν βρωσις και το αιμα μου αληθης εστιν ποσις
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
ο τρωγων μου την σαρκα και πινων μου το αιμα εν εμοι μενει καγω εν αυτω
57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.
καθως απεστειλεν με ο ζων πατηρ καγω ζω δια τον πατερα και ο τρωγων με κακεινος ζησει δι εμε
58 This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as the fathers ate, and died. He who eats this bread will live forever." (aiōn )
ουτος εστιν ο αρτος ο εξ ουρανου καταβας ου καθως εφαγον οι πατερες και απεθανον ο τρωγων τουτον τον αρτον ζησει εις τον αιωνα (aiōn )
59 He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
ταυτα ειπεν εν συναγωγη διδασκων εν καφαρναουμ
60 Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, "This is a hard saying. Who can listen to it?"
πολλοι ουν ακουσαντες εκ των μαθητων αυτου ειπαν σκληρος εστιν ο λογος ουτος τις δυναται αυτου ακουειν
61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?
ειδως δε ο ιησους εν εαυτω οτι γογγυζουσιν περι τουτου οι μαθηται αυτου ειπεν αυτοις τουτο υμας σκανδαλιζει
62 Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
εαν ουν θεωρητε τον υιον του ανθρωπου αναβαινοντα οπου ην το προτερον
63 It is the Spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.
το πνευμα εστιν το ζωοποιουν η σαρξ ουκ ωφελει ουδεν τα ρηματα α εγω λελαληκα υμιν πνευμα εστιν και ζωη εστιν
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.
αλλ εισιν εξ υμων τινες οι ου πιστευουσιν ηδει γαρ εξ αρχης ο ιησους τινες εισιν οι μη πιστευοντες και τις εστιν ο παραδωσων αυτον
65 He said, "For this cause have I said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by the Father."
και ελεγεν δια τουτο ειρηκα υμιν οτι ουδεις δυναται ελθειν προς με εαν μη η δεδομενον αυτω εκ του πατρος
66 At this, many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
εκ τουτου πολλοι {VAR1: εκ } {VAR2: [εκ] } των μαθητων αυτου απηλθον εις τα οπισω και ουκετι μετ αυτου περιεπατουν
67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, "You do not also want to go away, do you?"
ειπεν ουν ο ιησους τοις δωδεκα μη και υμεις θελετε υπαγειν
68 Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of everlasting life. (aiōnios )
απεκριθη αυτω σιμων πετρος κυριε προς τινα απελευσομεθα ρηματα ζωης αιωνιου εχεις (aiōnios )
69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God."
και ημεις πεπιστευκαμεν και εγνωκαμεν οτι συ ει ο αγιος του θεου
70 Jesus answered them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?"
απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους ουκ εγω υμας τους δωδεκα εξελεξαμην και εξ υμων εις διαβολος εστιν
71 Now he spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.
ελεγεν δε τον ιουδαν σιμωνος ισκαριωτου ουτος γαρ εμελλεν παραδιδοναι αυτον εις εκ των δωδεκα
