John 6:25-40

²⁵And having found him the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when art thou arrived here?

²⁶Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me not because ye have seen signs, but because ye have eaten of the loaves and been filled.

²⁷Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which abides unto life eternal, which the Son of man shall give to you; for him has the Father sealed, even God.

²⁸They said therefore to him, What should we do that we may work the works of God?

²⁹Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he has sent.

³⁰They said therefore to him, What sign then doest thou that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?

³¹Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.

³²Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, It is not Moses that has given you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.

³³For the bread of God is he who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.

³⁴They said therefore to him, Lord, ever give to us this bread.

³⁵And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst at any time.

³⁶But I have said to you, that ye have also seen me and do not believe.

³⁷All that the Father gives me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will not at all cast out.

³⁸For I am come down from heaven, not that I should do my will, but the will of him that has sent me.

³⁹And this is the will of him that has sent me, that of all that he has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up in the last day.

⁴⁰For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son, and believes on him, should have life eternal; and I will raise him up at the last day.
