< John 6 >
1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, also called the Sea of Tiberias.
μετα ταυτα απηλθεν ο ιησους περαν της θαλασσης της γαλιλαιας της τιβεριαδος
2 A great crowd was following him because they saw the signs that he was doing on those who were sick.
και ηκολουθει αυτω οχλος πολυς οτι εωρων αυτου τα σημεια α εποιει επι των ασθενουντων
3 Jesus went up the mountain and there he sat down with his disciples.
ανηλθεν δε εις το ορος ο 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 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming to him, he said to Philip, “Where are we going to buy bread so that these may eat?”
επαρας ουν ο ιησους τους οφθαλμους και θεασαμενος οτι πολυς οχλος ερχεται προς αυτον λεγει προς τον φιλιππον ποθεν αγορασομεν αρτους ινα φαγωσιν ουτοι
6 (But Jesus said this to test Philip, for he himself knew what he was going to do.)
τουτο δε ελεγεν πειραζων αυτον αυτος γαρ ηδει τι εμελλεν ποιειν
7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be sufficient for each one to have even a little.”
απεκριθη αυτω φιλιππος διακοσιων δηναριων αρτοι ουκ αρκουσιν αυτοις ινα εκαστος αυτων βραχυ τι λαβη
8 One of the disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Jesus,
λεγει αυτω εις εκ των μαθητων αυτου ανδρεας ο αδελφος σιμωνος πετρου
9 “There is a boy here who has five bread loaves of barley and two fish, but what are these among so many?”
εστιν παιδαριον εν ωδε ο εχει πεντε αρτους κριθινους και δυο οψαρια αλλα ταυτα τι εστιν εις τοσουτους
10 Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” (Now there was a lot of grass in the place.) So the men sat down, about five thousand in number.
ειπεν δε ο ιησους ποιησατε τους ανθρωπους αναπεσειν ην δε χορτος πολυς εν τω τοπω ανεπεσον ουν οι ανδρες τον αριθμον ωσει πεντακισχιλιοι
11 Then Jesus took the loaves and after giving thanks, he gave it to those who were sitting. He did the same with the fish, as much as they wanted.
ελαβεν δε τους αρτους ο ιησους και ευχαριστησας διεδωκεν τοις μαθηταις οι δε μαθηται τοις ανακειμενοις ομοιως και εκ των οψαριων οσον ηθελον
12 When the people were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which remain, so that nothing will 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 left over by those who had eaten.
συνηγαγον ουν και εγεμισαν δωδεκα κοφινους κλασματων εκ των πεντε αρτων των κριθινων α επερισσευσεν τοις βεβρωκοσιν
14 Then, when the people saw this sign that he did, they said, “This truly is the prophet who is to come into the world.”
οι ουν ανθρωποι ιδοντες ο εποιησεν σημειον ο ιησους ελεγον οτι ουτος εστιν αληθως ο προφητης ο ερχομενος εις τον κοσμον
15 When Jesus realized that they were about to come and seize him by force to make him king, he withdrew again up the mountain by himself.
ιησους ουν γνους οτι μελλουσιν ερχεσθαι και αρπαζειν αυτον ινα ποιησωσιν αυτον βασιλεα ανεχωρησεν παλιν εις το ορος αυτος μονος
16 When it became evening, his disciples went down to the sea.
ως δε οψια εγενετο κατεβησαν οι μαθηται αυτου επι την θαλασσαν
17 They got into a boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was dark by this time, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
και εμβαντες εις το πλοιον ηρχοντο περαν της θαλασσης εις καπερναουμ και σκοτια ηδη εγεγονει και ουκ εληλυθει προς αυτους ο ιησους
18 A strong wind was blowing, and the sea was getting rough.
η τε θαλασσα ανεμου μεγαλου πνεοντος διηγειρετο
19 When they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were afraid.
εληλακοτες ουν ως σταδιους εικοσιπεντε 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 Then they were willing to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the land where they were going.
ηθελον ουν λαβειν αυτον εις το πλοιον και ευθεως το πλοιον εγενετο επι της γης εις ην υπηγον
22 The next day, the crowd that had been standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there except the one, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples but that his disciples had gone away alone.
τη επαυριον ο οχλος ο εστηκως περαν της θαλασσης ιδων οτι πλοιαριον αλλο ουκ ην εκει ει μη εν εκεινο εις ο ενεβησαν οι μαθηται αυτου και οτι ου συνεισηλθεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου ο ιησους εις το πλοιαριον αλλα μονοι οι μαθηται αυτου απηλθον
23 However, there were some boats that came from Tiberias close to the place where they had eaten the bread loaves after the Lord had given thanks.
αλλα δε ηλθεν πλοιαρια εκ τιβεριαδος εγγυς του τοπου οπου εφαγον τον αρτον ευχαριστησαντος του κυριου
24 When the crowd discovered that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum seeking Jesus.
οτε ουν ειδεν ο οχλος οτι ιησους ουκ εστιν εκει ουδε οι μαθηται αυτου ενεβησαν και αυτοι εις τα πλοια και ηλθον εις καπερναουμ ζητουντες τον ιησουν
25 After they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”
και ευροντες αυτον περαν της θαλασσης ειπον αυτω ραββι ποτε ωδε γεγονας
26 Jesus replied to them, saying, “Truly, truly, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate some of the bread 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 that perishes, but work for the food that endures to eternal life which the Son of Man will give you, for God the Father has set his seal on 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 Then they said to him, “What must we do, so that we may do the works of God?”
ειπον ουν προς αυτον τι {VAR1: ποιουμεν } {VAR2: ποιωμεν } ινα εργαζωμεθα τα εργα του θεου
29 Jesus replied and said to them, “This is the work of God: That you believe in the one whom he has sent.”
απεκριθη ο ιησους και ειπεν αυτοις τουτο εστιν το εργον του θεου ινα πιστευσητε εις ον απεστειλεν εκεινος
30 So they said to him, “What sign then will you do, so that we may see and believe you? What will 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 from heaven to eat.'”
οι πατερες ημων το μαννα εφαγον εν τη ερημω καθως εστιν γεγραμμενον αρτον εκ του ουρανου εδωκεν αυτοις φαγειν
32 Then Jesus replied to them, “Truly, truly, it was not Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but it is my Father who is giving you the true bread from heaven.
ειπεν ουν αυτοις ο ιησους αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ου μωσης 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 from heaven and gives life to the world.”
ο γαρ αρτος του θεου εστιν ο καταβαινων εκ του ουρανου και ζωην διδους τω κοσμω
34 So they said to him, “Sir, give us this bread always.”
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 δε αυτοις ο ιησους εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης ο ερχομενος προς με ου μη πειναση και ο πιστευων εις εμε ου μη διψηση πωποτε
36 But I told you that indeed you have seen me, and you do not believe.
αλλ ειπον υμιν οτι και εωρακατε με και ου πιστευετε
37 Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me, and he who comes to me I will certainly not throw out.
παν ο διδωσιν μοι ο πατηρ προς εμε ηξει και τον ερχομενον προς με 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 εκ 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 I would lose not one of all those whom he has given me, but will raise them up on the last day.
τουτο δε εστιν το θελημα του πεμψαντος με πατρος ινα παν ο δεδωκεν μοι μη απολεσω εξ αυτου αλλα αναστησω αυτο εν τη εσχατη ημερα
40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him would have eternal life and I will raise him up on the last day.” (aiōnios )
τουτο δε εστιν το θελημα του πεμψαντος με ινα πας ο θεωρων τον υιον και πιστευων εις αυτον εχη ζωην αιωνιον και αναστησω αυτον εγω τη εσχατη ημερα (aiōnios )
41 Then the Jews grumbled about him because he had said, “I am the bread that has come down from 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 son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he now say, 'I have come down from heaven'?”
και ελεγον ουχ ουτος εστιν ιησους ο υιος ιωσηφ ου ημεις οιδαμεν τον πατερα και την μητερα πως ουν λεγει ουτος οτι εκ του ουρανου καταβεβηκα
43 Jesus replied and said to them, “Stop grumbling among yourselves.
απεκριθη ουν ο 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 on the last day.
ουδεις δυναται ελθειν προς με εαν μη ο πατηρ ο πεμψας με ελκυση αυτον και εγω αναστησω αυτον τη εσχατη ημερα
45 It is written in the prophets, 'Everyone will be taught by God.' Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me.
εστιν γεγραμμενον εν τοις προφηταις και εσονται παντες διδακτοι του θεου πας ουν ο ακουσας παρα του πατρος και μαθων ερχεται προς με
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God—he has seen the Father.
ουχ οτι τον πατερα τις εωρακεν ει μη ο ων παρα του θεου ουτος εωρακεν τον πατερα
47 Truly, truly, he who believes has eternal life. (aiōnios )
αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ο πιστευων εις εμε 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 το μαννα εν τη ερημω και απεθανον
50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, so that a person may eat some 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 that came down from heaven. If anyone eats some of this bread, he will live forever. The bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.” (aiōn )
εγω ειμι ο αρτος ο ζων ο εκ του ουρανου καταβας εαν τις φαγη εκ τουτου του αρτου ζησεται εις τον αιωνα και ο αρτος δε ον εγω δωσω η σαρξ μου εστιν ην εγω δωσω υπερ της του κοσμου ζωης (aiōn )
52 The Jews became angry among themselves and began to argue, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
εμαχοντο ουν προς αλληλους οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντες πως δυναται ουτος ημιν δουναι την σαρκα φαγειν
53 Then Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you will not have life in yourselves.
ειπεν ουν αυτοις 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 Whoever 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 και εγω αναστησω αυτον τη εσχατη ημερα (aiōnios )
55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
η γαρ σαρξ μου αληθως εστιν βρωσις και το αιμα μου αληθως εστιν ποσις
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains 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 as I live because of the Father, so he who eats me, he will also live because of me.
καθως απεστειλεν με ο ζων πατηρ καγω ζω δια τον πατερα και ο τρωγων με κακεινος ζησεται δι εμε
58 This is the bread that has come down from heaven, not as the fathers ate and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.” (aiōn )
ουτος εστιν ο αρτος ο εκ του ουρανου καταβας ου καθως εφαγον οι πατερες υμων το μαννα και απεθανον ο τρωγων τουτον τον αρτον ζησεται εις τον αιωνα (aiōn )
59 But Jesus said these things in the synagogue while he was teaching in Capernaum.
ταυτα ειπεν εν συναγωγη διδασκων εν καπερναουμ
60 Then many of his disciples who heard this said, “This is a difficult teaching; who can accept it?”
πολλοι ουν ακουσαντες εκ των μαθητων αυτου ειπον σκληρος εστιν ουτος ο λογος τις δυναται αυτου ακουειν
61 Jesus, because he knew in himself that his disciples were grumbling at this, said to them, “Does this offend you?
ειδως δε ο ιησους εν εαυτω οτι γογγυζουσιν περι τουτου οι μαθηται αυτου ειπεν αυτοις τουτο υμας σκανδαλιζει
62 Then what if you should see the Son of Man going up to where he was before?
εαν ουν θεωρητε τον υιον του ανθρωπου αναβαινοντα οπου ην το προτερον
63 It is the Spirit who makes alive; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit, and they are life.
το πνευμα εστιν το ζωοποιουν η σαρξ ουκ ωφελει ουδεν τα ρηματα α εγω λαλω υμιν πνευμα εστιν και ζωη εστιν
64 Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who were the ones that would 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, “It is because of this that I said to you that no one can come to me unless it is granted 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 μου
66 Because of this, many of his disciples went away and no longer walked with him.
εκ τουτου πολλοι απηλθον των μαθητων αυτου εις τα οπισω και ουκετι μετ αυτου περιεπατουν
67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?”
ειπεν ουν ο ιησους τοις δωδεκα μη και υμεις θελετε υπαγειν
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life, (aiōnios )
απεκριθη ουν αυτω σιμων πετρος κυριε προς τινα απελευσομεθα ρηματα ζωης αιωνιου εχεις (aiōnios )
69 and we have believed and come to know that you are the Holy One of God.”
και ημεις πεπιστευκαμεν και εγνωκαμεν οτι συ ει ο χριστος ο υιος του θεου του ζωντος
70 Jesus said to them, “Did not I 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 son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he, one of the twelve, who would betray Jesus.
ελεγεν δε τον ιουδαν σιμωνος ισκαριωτην ουτος γαρ ημελλεν αυτον παραδιδοναι εις ων εκ των δωδεκα
