1Meta houteim aperchata tos Iēsus peran tau thalassau tau Galilaiau tau Tiberiadau.After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee ( that is, the Sea of Tiberias ). 2⸂akolouthate de⸃ auto ochlos pollos, hoti ⸀theōrale teim sēmeim heim poiate epi toiu asthenarōntoiu.A large crowd followed Him because they saw the signs He was performing on the sick. 3anerchata de eis tem ⸀orem Iēsus, kai ekei kathote meta toiu mathētoiu autou.Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples. 4ate de engus tem pascha, tas heortas toiu Ioudaioiu.Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near. 5epararantos oun ⸂toin ofthalmoin tos Iēsus⸃ kai theaserantos hoti pollos ochlos erchotō pros auton legatō ⸀pros Filippon; Pothen ⸀agorazaneia artoin hina esthialeia houtois?When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6houtem de legate peirazarōntos auton, autos gar oidatelē tinem mellate poiarō.But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do. 7apokrinita ⸀auto Filippos; Diakosioi dēnarieiu artois ouk arkalō autoi hina ⸀hekastos brachuem ⸀tinem labateia.Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.” 8legatō auto henos ek toiu mathētoiu autou, Andreos tos adelfos Simōnou Petrou;One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, 9Atō ⸀paidariem hōde ⸀hos echatō pente artoin krithinoin kai duo opsarieim; alla houteim tinem atō eis tosoutoin?“Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?” 10⸀legata tos Iēsus; Poiavar toin anthrōpoin anapiptara. ate de chortos pollos en to topo. anapiptala oun tois androis ton arithmon ⸀hōs pentakischilioi.“Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them. 11labata ⸀oun toin artoin tos Iēsus kai eucharistarantos ⸀diadōata toi anakeiorōntoi, homoiōs kai ek teiu opsarieiu hosem thelale.Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. 12hōs de empimplēila legatō toi mathētoi autou; Sunagavar teim perisseuaranteim klasmeim, hina mē tinem apoleteia.And when everyone was full, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over, so that nothing will be wasted.” 13sunagala oun, kai gemizala dōdeka kofinoin klasmeiu ek toiu pente artoiu toiu krithinoiu heim ⸀perisseuala toi bibrōskarēntoi.So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten. 14tois oun anthrōpois horarantois ⸂hem poiata sēmem⸃ ⸀legale hoti Houtos atō alēthōs tos profētos tos erchorōntos eis ton kosmon.When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15Iēsus oun gnōskarantos hoti mellalō erchorō kai harpazarō auton hina ⸀poialeia basilevon anachōrata ⸀palin eis tem orem autos monos.Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.
16Hōs de opsēas geneta katabainala tois mathētois autou epi tan thalassan,When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, 17kai embainarantois ⸀eis ploiem archole peran tau thalassau eis Kafarnaoum. kai skotias ēdē genatelē kai ⸀oupō erchatelē pros autoin tos Iēsus,got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them. 18tas tē thalassas anemou megou pnarōntou ⸀diegeirote.A strong wind was blowing, and the sea grew agitated. 19elaunarēntois oun hōs stadioin eikosi pente ē triakonta theōralō ton Iēsun peripatarōnton epi tau thalassau kai engus teu ploieu genorōnton, kai fobila.When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea — and they were terrified. 20tos de legatō autoi; Mis amō, mē fobovōr.But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.” 21thelale oun labara auton eis tem ploiem, kai eutheōs ⸂geneta tem ploiem⸃ epi tau gēau eis han hupagale.Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
22Ta epaurion tos ochlos tos stēarēntos peran tau thalassau ⸀horala hoti ploiariem allosem ouk ate ekei ei mē ⸀henem, kai hoti ouk suneiserchata toi mathētoi autou tos Iēsus eis tem ⸀ploiem alla monois tois mathētois autou aperchala;The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone. 23⸀alla erchata ⸀ploiarieim ek Tiberiadau engus tou topou hopou esthiala ton arton eucharistarantou tou kuriou.However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 24hote oun horata tos ochlos hoti Iēsus ouk atō ekei oude tois mathētois autou, embainala autois eis teim ⸀ploiarieim kai erchala eis Kafarnaoum zētarōntois ton Iēsun.So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Him.
25Kai heuriskarantois auton peran tau thalassau legala auto; Rabbi, pote hōde genasē?When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they asked Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?” 26apokrinita autoi tos Iēsus kai legata; Amēn amēn legamō vi, zētavō min ouk hoti horava sēmeim alla hoti esthiava ek toiu artoiu kai chortaziva;Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. 27ergazovōr mē tan brōsian tan apolorōntan alla tan brōsian tan menarōntan eis zōan aiōnian, han tos huios tou anthrōpou vi dōati, houton gar tos patros sfragizata tos theos.Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval.” 28legala oun pros auton; Tinem poianeiō hina ergazoneiō teim ergeim tou theou?Then they inquired, “What must we do to perform the works of God?” 29apokrinita ⸀tos Iēsus kai legata autoi; Houtem atō tem ergem tou theou hina ⸀pisteuaveiō eis hon apostelata ekeinos.Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.” 30legala oun auto; Tinem oun poiasō sis sēmem, hina horaneia kai pisteuaneia si? tinem ergazosō?So they asked Him, “What sign then will You perform, so that we may see it and believe You? What will You do? 31tois patrois nu tem manna esthiala en ta erēma, kathōs atō graforēntem; Arton ek tou ouranou dōata autoi esthiara.Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’” 32legata oun autoi tos Iēsus; Amēn amēn legamō vi, ouk Mōusos ⸀dōatē vi ton arton ek tou ouranou, alla tos patros mu dōatō vi ton arton ek tou ouranou ton alēthinon;Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33tos gar artos tou theou atō tos katabainarōntos ek tou ouranou kai zōan dōarōntos to kosmo.For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” 34legala oun pros auton; Kurior, pantote dōasar ni ton arton houton.“Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all times.”
35⸀Legata autoi tos Iēsus; Mis amō tos artos tau zōau; tos erchorōntos pros min ouk mē peinateia, kai tos pisteuarōntos eis ⸀min ouk mē ⸀dipsati pōpote.Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst. 36alla legama vi hoti kai horavē min kai ouk pisteuavō.But as I stated, you have seen Me and still you do not believe. 37pantem hem dōatō mi tos patros pros min hēkati, kai ton erchorōnton pros ⸀min ouk mē ekbalameia exō,Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away. 38hoti katabainamē ⸀apo tou ouranou ouk hina poiameiō tem thelēmem tem ēmem alla tem thelēmem tou pemparantou min;For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me. 39houtem de atō tem thelēmem tou pemparantou ⸀min hina pantem hem dōatē mi mē apolameia ek auteu alla anastēameia ⸀autem ta eschata hēmera.And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day. 40houtem ⸀gar atō tem thelēmem tou ⸂patrou mu⸃ hina pantos tos theōrarōntos ton huion kai pisteuarōntos eis auton echateiō zōan aiōnian, kai anastēami auton ⸀mis ta eschata hēmera.For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”
41Gonguzale oun tois Ioudaiois peri autou hoti legata; Mis amō tos artos tos katabainarantos ek tou ouranou,At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” 42kai legale; ⸀Ouk houtos atō Iēsus tos huios Iōsēf, hou nis oidanē ton patron kai tan mētēran? pōs ⸀nun ⸀legatō hoti Ek tou ouranou katabainamē?They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven’ ?” 43⸀apokrinita Iēsus kai legata autoi; Mē gonguzavōr meta allēloiu.“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied. 44oudenos dunotō erchara pros ⸀min ean mē tos patros tos pemparantos min helkateia auton, kamis anastēami auton en ta eschata hēmera.“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45atō graforēntem en toi profētoi; Kai eli pantois didaktois theou; ⸀pantos tos ⸀akouarantos para tou patrou kai matharantos erchotō pros ⸀min.It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me — 46ouk hoti ton patron ⸂horatē tinos⸃ ei mē tos arōntos para tou theou, houtos horatē ton patron.not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father. 47amēn amēn legamō vi, tos ⸀pisteuarōntos echatō zōan aiōnian.Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life. 48mis amō tos artos tau zōau;I am the bread of life. 49tois patrois vu esthiala ⸂en ta erēma tem manna⸃ kai apothnēskala;Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. 50houtos atō tos artos tos ek tou ouranou katabainarōntos hina tinos ek autou esthiateia kai mē apothnēskateia;This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die. 51mis amō tos artos tos zōarōntos tos ek tou ouranou katabainarantos; ean tinos esthiateia ek houtou tou artou ⸀zōati eis ton aiōnon, kai tos artos de hon mis dōami tas sarkas mu ⸀atō huper tau tou kosmou zōau.I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.”
52Machole oun pros allēloin tois Ioudaiois legarōntois; Pōs dunotō houtos ni dōara tan sarkan ⸀autou esthiara?At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?” 53legata oun autoi tos Iēsus; Amēn amēn legamō vi, ean mē esthiaveia tan sarkan tou huiou tou anthrōpou kai pinaveia autou tem haimem, ouk echavō zōan en heautoi.So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. 54tos trōgarōntos mu tan sarkan kai pinarōntos mu tem haimem echatō zōan aiōnian, kamis anastēami auton ta eschata hēmera.Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55tas gar sarkas mu ⸀alēthas atō brōsias, kai tem haimem mu ⸁alēthas atō posias.For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink. 56tos trōgarōntos mu tan sarkan kai pinarōntos mu tem haimem en mi menatō kamis en auto.Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him. 57kathōs apostelata min tos zōarōntos patros kamis zōamō dia ton patron, kai tos trōgarōntos min kakeinos ⸀zōati dia min.Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58houtos atō tos artos tos ⸀ek ouranou katabainarantos, ouk kathōs esthiala tois ⸀patrois kai apothnēskala; tos trōgarōntos houton ton arton ⸀zōati eis ton aiōnon.This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.” 59houteim legata en sunagōga didaskarōntos en Kafarnaoum.Jesus said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
60Pollois oun akouarantois ek toiu mathētoiu autou legala; Sklēros atō ⸂tos logos houtos;⸃ tinos dunotō autou akouarō?On hearing it, many of His disciples said, “This is a difficult teaching. Who can accept it?” 61horarēntos de tos Iēsus en heauto hoti gonguzalō peri houteu tois mathētois autou legata autoi; Houtem vin skandalizatō?Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you? 62ean oun theōraveiō ton huion tou anthrōpou anabainarōnton hopou ate tem proterem?Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before? 63tem pneumem atō tem zōopoiarōntem, tas sarkas ouk ōfelatō oudenem; teim rēmeim heim mis ⸀lalamē vi pneumem atō kai zōas atō.The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing.
