Chapter 6

meta tauta aphlqen o ihsouV peran thV qalasshV thV galilaiaV thV tiberiadoV
6:1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is [the sea] of Tiberias.

kai hkolouqei autw ocloV poluV oti ewrwn autou ta shmeia a epoiei epi twn asqenountwn
6:2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

anhlqen de eiV to oroV o ihsouV kai ekei ekaqhto meta twn maqhtwn autou
6:3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

hn de egguV to pasca h eorth twn ioudaiwn
6:4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

eparaV oun o ihsouV touV ofqalmouV kai qeasamenoV oti poluV ocloV ercetai proV auton legei proV ton filippon poqen agorasomen artouV ina fagwsin outoi
6:5 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?

touto de elegen peirazwn auton autoV gar hdei ti emellen poiein
6:6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.

apekriqh autw filippoV diakosiwn dhnariwn artoi ouk arkousin autoiV ina ekastoV autwn bracu ti labh
6:7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

legei autw eiV ek twn maqhtwn autou andreaV o adelfoV simwnoV petrou
6:8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,

estin paidarion en wde o ecei pente artouV kriqinouV kai duo oyaria alla tauta ti estin eiV tosoutouV
6:9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

eipen de o ihsouV poihsate touV anqrwpouV anapesein hn de cortoV poluV en tw topw anepeson oun oi andreV ton ariqmon wsei pentakiscilioi
6:10 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.

elaben de touV artouV o ihsouV kai eucaristhsaV diedwken toiV maqhtaiV oi de maqhtai toiV anakeimenoiV omoiwV kai ek twn oyariwn oson hqelon
6:11 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.

wV de eneplhsqhsan legei toiV maqhtaiV autou sunagagete ta perisseusanta klasmata ina mh ti apolhtai
6:12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.

sunhgagon oun kai egemisan dwdeka kofinouV klasmatwn ek twn pente artwn twn kriqinwn a eperisseusen toiV bebrwkosin
6:13 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.

oi oun anqrwpoi idonteV o epoihsen shmeion o ihsouV elegon oti outoV estin alhqwV o profhthV o ercomenoV eiV ton kosmon
6:14 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.

ihsouV oun gnouV oti mellousin ercesqai kai arpazein auton ina poihswsin auton basilea anecwrhsen palin eiV to oroV autoV monoV
6:15 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.

wV de oyia egeneto katebhsan oi maqhtai autou epi thn qalassan
6:16 And when even was [now] come, his disciples went down unto the sea,

kai embanteV eiV to ploion hrconto peran thV qalasshV eiV kapernaoum kai skotia hdh egegonei kai ouk elhluqei proV autouV o ihsouV
6:17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.

h te qalassa anemou megalou pneontoV dihgeireto
6:18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.

elhlakoteV oun wV stadiouV eikosipente h triakonta qewrousin ton ihsoun peripatounta epi thV qalasshV kai egguV tou ploiou ginomenon kai efobhqhsan
6:19 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.

o de legei autoiV egw eimi mh fobeisqe
6:20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.

hqelon oun labein auton eiV to ploion kai euqewV to ploion egeneto epi thV ghV eiV hn uphgon
6:21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

6:22 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;

alla de hlqen ploiaria ek tiberiadoV egguV tou topou opou efagon ton arton eucaristhsantoV tou kuriou
6:23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)

ote oun eiden o ocloV oti ihsouV ouk estin ekei oude oi maqhtai autou enebhsan kai autoi eiV ta ploia kai hlqon eiV kapernaoum zhtounteV ton ihsoun
6:24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.

kai euronteV auton peran thV qalasshV eipon autw rabbi pote wde gegonaV
6:25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?

apekriqh autoiV o ihsouV kai eipen amhn amhn legw umin zhteite me ouc oti eidete shmeia all oti efagete ek twn artwn kai ecortasqhte
6:26 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.

ergazesqe mh thn brwsin thn apollumenhn alla thn brwsin thn menousan eiV zwhn aiwnion hn o uioV tou anqrwpou umin dwsei touton gar o pathr esfragisen o qeoV
6:27 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.

eipon oun proV auton ti poioumen ina ergazwmeqa ta erga tou qeou
6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

apekriqh o ihsouV kai eipen autoiV touto estin to ergon tou qeou ina pisteushte eiV on apesteilen ekeinoV
6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

eipon oun autw ti oun poieiV su shmeion ina idwmen kai pisteuswmen soi ti ergazh
6:30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?

oi patereV hmwn to manna efagon en th erhmw kaqwV estin gegrammenon arton ek tou ouranou edwken autoiV fagein
6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

eipen oun autoiV o ihsouV amhn amhn legw umin ou mwshV dedwken umin ton arton ek tou ouranou all o pathr mou didwsin umin ton arton ek tou ouranou ton alhqinon
6:32 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.

o gar artoV tou qeou estin o katabainwn ek tou ouranou kai zwhn didouV tw kosmw
6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

eipon oun proV auton kurie pantote doV hmin ton arton touton
6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

eipen de autoiV o ihsouV egw eimi o artoV thV zwhV o ercomenoV proV me ou mh peinash kai o pisteuwn eiV eme ou mh diyhsh pwpote
6:35 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.

all eipon umin oti kai ewrakate me kai ou pisteuete
6:36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.

pan o didwsin moi o pathr proV eme hxei kai ton ercomenon proV me ou mh ekbalw exw
6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

oti katabebhka ek tou ouranou ouc ina poiw to qelhma to emon alla to qelhma tou pemyantoV me
6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

touto de estin to qelhma tou pemyantoV me patroV ina pan o dedwken moi mh apolesw ex autou alla anasthsw auto en th escath hmera
6:39 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.

touto de estin to qelhma tou pemyantoV me ina paV o qewrwn ton uion kai pisteuwn eiV auton ech zwhn aiwnion kai anasthsw auton egw th escath hmera
6:40 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.

egogguzon oun oi ioudaioi peri autou oti eipen egw eimi o artoV o katabaV ek tou ouranou
6:41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

kai elegon ouc outoV estin ihsouV o uioV iwshf ou hmeiV oidamen ton patera kai thn mhtera pwV oun legei outoV oti ek tou ouranou katabebhka
6:42 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?

apekriqh oun o ihsouV kai eipen autoiV mh gogguzete met allhlwn
6:43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

oudeiV dunatai elqein proV me ean mh o pathr o pemyaV me elkush auton kai egw anasthsw auton th escath hmera
6:44 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.

estin gegrammenon en toiV profhtaiV kai esontai panteV didaktoi tou qeou paV oun o akousaV para tou patroV kai maqwn ercetai proV me
6:45 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.

ouc oti ton patera tiV ewraken ei mh o wn para tou qeou outoV ewraken ton patera
6:46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

6:48 I am that bread of life.

oi patereV umwn efagon to manna en th erhmw kai apeqanon
6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

outoV estin o artoV o ek tou ouranou katabainwn ina tiV ex autou fagh kai mh apoqanh
6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

6:51 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.

emaconto oun proV allhlouV oi ioudaioi legonteV pwV dunatai outoV hmin dounai thn sarka fagein
6:52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?

eipen oun autoiV o ihsouV amhn amhn legw umin ean mh faghte thn sarka tou uiou tou anqrwpou kai pihte autou to aima ouk ecete zwhn en eautoiV
6:53 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.

o trwgwn mou thn sarka kai pinwn mou to aima ecei zwhn aiwnion kai egw anasthsw auton th escath hmera
6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

h gar sarx mou alhqwV estin brwsiV kai to aima mou alhqwV estin posiV
6:55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

o trwgwn mou thn sarka kai pinwn mou to aima en emoi menei kagw en autw
6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

kaqwV apesteilen me o zwn pathr kagw zw dia ton patera kai o trwgwn me kakeinoV zhsetai di eme
6:57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

outoV estin o artoV o ek tou ouranou katabaV ou kaqwV efagon oi patereV umwn to manna kai apeqanon o trwgwn touton ton arton zhsetai eiV ton aiwna
6:58 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.

tauta eipen en sunagwgh didaskwn en kapernaoum
6:59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

polloi oun akousanteV ek twn maqhtwn autou eipon sklhroV estin outoV o logoV tiV dunatai autou akouein
6:60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard [this], said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

eidwV de o ihsouV en eautw oti gogguzousin peri toutou oi maqhtai autou eipen autoiV touto umaV skandalizei
6:61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?

ean oun qewrhte ton uion tou anqrwpou anabainonta opou hn to proteron
6:62 [What] and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.

all eisin ex umwn tineV oi ou pisteuousin hdei gar ex archV o ihsouV tineV eisin oi mh pisteuonteV kai tiV estin o paradwswn auton
6:64 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.

kai elegen dia touto eirhka umin oti oudeiV dunatai elqein proV me ean mh h dedomenon autw ek tou patroV mou
6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

ek toutou polloi aphlqon twn maqhtwn autou eiV ta opisw kai ouketi met autou periepatoun
6:66 From that [time] many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

6:67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?

6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

6:69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.

6:70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

6:71 He spake of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
