27Let your work not be for the food which comes to an end, but for the food which goes on for eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you, for on him has God the Father put his mark.
28Then they said to him, How may we do the works of God?
29Jesus, answering, said to them, This is to do the work of God: to have faith in him whom God has sent.
30So they said, What sign do you give us, so that we may see and have faith in you? What do you do?
31Our fathers had the manna in the waste land, as the Writings say, He gave them bread from heaven.
32Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
33The bread of God is the bread which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.
34Ah, Lord, they said, give us that bread for ever!
35And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.
36But it is as I said to you: you have seen me, and still you have no faith.
37Whatever the Father gives to me will come to me; and I will not send away anyone who comes to me.
38For I have come down from heaven, not to do my pleasure, but the pleasure of him who sent me.
39And this is the pleasure of him who sent me, that I am not to let out of my hands anything which he has given me, but I am to give it new life on the last day.
40This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day.
41Now the Jews said bitter things about Jesus because of his words, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have seen? How is it then that he now says, I have come down from heaven?
43Jesus made answer and said, Do not say things against me, one to another.
44No man is able to come to me if the Father who sent me does not give him the desire to come: and I will take him up from the dead on the last day.
45The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.
46Not that anyone has ever seen the Father; only he who is from God, he has seen the Father.
47Truly I say to you, He who has faith in me has eternal life.
48I am the bread of life.
49Your fathers took the manna in the waste land — and they are dead.
50The bread which comes from heaven is such bread that a man may take it for food and never see death.
51I am the living bread which has come from heaven: if any man takes this bread for food he will have life for ever: and more than this, the bread which I will give is my flesh which I will give for the life of the world.
52Then the Jews had an angry discussion among themselves, saying, How is it possible for this man to give us his flesh for food?
53Then Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, If you do not take the flesh of the Son of man for food, and if you do not take his blood for drink, you have no life in you.
54He who takes my flesh for food and my blood for drink has eternal life: and I will take him up from the dead at the last day.
55My flesh is true food and my blood is true drink.
56He who takes my flesh for food and my blood for drink is in me and I in him.
