1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. 3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? 6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him, 9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? 10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. 12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. 13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone. 16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea, 17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them. 18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew. 19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. 20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. 21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone; 23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:) 24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus. 25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? 26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. 27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. 28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? 31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. 32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. 35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. 36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. 37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. 40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. 41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. 42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? 43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. 44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. 46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. 47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. 48 I am that bread of life. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. 54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. 58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. 59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. 60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? 61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? 62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? 63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. 64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. 65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. 70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? 71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

1 这些事以后， 耶稣渡过加利利海， 就是提比里亚海。

2 有一大群人， 因为看见了他在病人身上所行的神迹， 就跟随了他。

3 耶稣上了山， 同门徒坐在那里。

4 那时犹太人的逾越节近了。

5 耶稣举目观看， 见一大群人向他走过来， 就对腓力说： "我们从哪里买饼给这些人吃呢？"

6 他说这话， 是要试验腓力， 因他自己早已知道要怎样作。

7 腓力回答： "就算二百银币买的饼， 每人分一点， 也是不够的。"

8 有一个门徒， 就是西门．彼得的弟弟安得烈， 对耶稣说：

9 "这里有个小孩子， 带着五个大麦饼、两条鱼； 只是分给这么多人， 有什么用呢？"

10 耶稣吩咐他们： "你们叫众人坐下。"原来那地方的草很多， 众人就坐下， 单是男人的数目约有五千。

11 耶稣拿起饼来， 祝谢了， 就分给坐着的人； 分鱼也是这样， 都是随着他们所要的。

12 他们吃饱了之后， 耶稣对门徒说： "把剩下的零碎收拾起来， 免得浪费。"

13 门徒就把众人吃剩那五个大麦饼的零碎收拾起来， 装满了十二个篮子。

14 众人看见耶稣所行的神迹， 就说： "这真是那要到世上来的先知。"

15 耶稣知道群众要来强迫他作王， 就独自又退到山上去了。

16 到了晚上， 他的门徒下到海边去。

17 他们上了船， 要渡海往迦百农去。那时天已经黑了， 耶稣还没有到他们那里。

18 忽然海上起了狂风， 波浪翻腾。

19 门徒摇橹约行了五六公里， 看见耶稣在海面上行走， 渐渐靠近船， 就害怕起来。

20 耶稣对他们说： "是我， 不要怕。"

21 他们这才把他接上船， 船就立刻到了他们要去的地方。

22 第二天， 站在海那边的群众， 看见只有一只小船留在那里， 并且知道耶稣没有和他的门徒一同上船， 门徒是自己去的；

23 不过有几只从提比里亚来的船停在那里， 靠近他们在主祝谢以后吃饼的地方。

24 群众见耶稣和门徒都不在那里， 就上船往迦百农去找耶稣。

25 他们在对岸找到了耶稣， 就问他： "拉比， 你几时到这里来的？"

26 耶稣回答： "我实实在在告诉你们， 你们找我， 不是因为看见了神迹， 而是因为吃了饼又吃饱了。

27 不要为那必朽坏的食物操劳， 却要为那存到永生的食物操劳， 就是人子所要赐给你们的， 因为人子是父 神所印证的。"

28 众人又问他： "我们应该作什么， 才算是作 神的工作呢？"

29 耶稣回答： "信 神所差来的， 就是作 神的工了。"

30 于是他们就说： "你要行什么神迹， 让我们看了就信你呢？你到底能作什么呢？

31 我们的祖宗在旷野吃过吗哪， 正如经上所记： ‘他把从天上来的食物赐给他们吃。’"

32 耶稣对他们说： "我实实在在告诉你们， 不是摩西把那从天上来的食物赐给你们， 而是我父把天上来的真食物赐给你们；

33 因为 神的食物就是从天上降下来， 把生命赐给世人的那一位。"

34 他们对耶稣说： "主啊， 求你常把这食物赐给我们。"

35 耶稣说： "我就是生命的食物， 到我这里来的， 必定不饿； 信我的， 永远不渴。

36 但我告诉你们， 你们虽然见了我， 还是不信。

37 凡是父赐给我的人， 必到我这里来； 到我这里来的， 我决不丢弃他，

38 因为我从天上降下来， 不是要行自己的意思， 而是要行那差我来者的旨意。

39 那差我来者的旨意就是： 他所赐给我的人， 我连一个也不失落， 并且在末日我要使他们复活。

40 因为我父的旨意， 是要使所有看见了子而信的人有永生， 并且在末日我要使他们复活。"

41 犹太人因为耶稣说"我是从天上降下来的食物"， 就纷纷议论他。

42 他们说： "这不是约瑟的儿子耶稣吗？他的父母我们不都认识吗？他现在怎么说‘我是从天上降下来的’呢？"

43 耶稣回答： "你们不要彼此议论。

44 如果不是差我来的父吸引人， 就没有人能到我这里来； 到我这里来的， 在末日我要使他复活。

45 先知书上记着： ‘众人都必受 神的教导。’凡听见从父那里来的教训而又学习的， 必到我这里来。

46 这不是说有人见过父； 只有从 神那里来的那一位， 他才见过父。

47 我实实在在告诉你们， 信的人有永生。

48 我就是生命的食物，

49 你们的祖宗在旷野吃过吗哪， 还是死了。

50 这是从天上降下来的食物， 使人吃了就不死。

51 我就是从天上降下来生命的食物， 人若吃了这食物， 就必活到永远。我要赐的食物就是我的肉， 是为了世人的生命而赐的。"

52 于是， 犹太人彼此争论， 说： "这个人怎能把他的肉给我们吃呢？"

53 耶稣就对他们说： "我实实在在告诉你们， 你们若不吃人子的肉， 不喝人子的血， 就没有生命在你们里面。

54 吃我肉、喝我血的， 就有永生， 在末日我要使他复活；

55 因为我的肉是真正的食物， 我的血是真正的饮料。

56 吃我肉、喝我血的人， 就住在我里面， 我也住在他里面。

57 正如永活的父差遣了我， 我也因父活着； 照样， 吃我肉的人也必因我而活。

58 这就是从天上降下来的食物， 不像吗哪， 你们的祖宗吃过， 还是死了； 吃这食物的， 必活到永远。"

59 这些话是耶稣在迦百农会堂里教导人的时候说的。

60 他的门徒中， 有许多人听了， 就说： "这话很难， 谁能接受呢？"

61 耶稣心里知道门徒为了这事议论纷纷， 就对他们说： "这话使你们动摇吗？

62 如果你们看见人子升到他原来所在的地方， 又怎样呢？

63 使人活的是灵， 肉体是无济于事的。我对你们所说的话是灵、是生命。

64 然而你们中间却有不信的人。"原来从起初耶稣就知道那些不信的是谁， 那要把他出卖的又是谁。

65 耶稣跟着说： "所以我对你们说过， 如果不是父所赐的， 没有人能到我这里来。"

66 从此， 他的门徒中有许多人退去了， 不再与他同行。

67 于是耶稣对十二门徒说： "你们也想离去吗？"

68 西门．彼得回答： "主啊， 你有永生之道， 我们还跟从谁呢？

69 我们已经相信， 并且知道你是 神的圣者。"

70 耶稣说： "我不是拣选了你们十二个人吗？但你们中间有一个是魔鬼。"

71 耶稣这话是指着加略人西门的儿子犹大说的， 因为他虽然是十二门徒之一， 却要出卖耶稣。
