John 6:42-69

⁴²And they sayde: Is not this Iesus the sonne of Ioseph whose father and mother we knowe? How ys that then that he sayeth I came doune from heaven?

⁴³Iesus answered and sayde vnto them. Murmur not betwene youre selves.

⁴⁴No man can come to me except the father which hath sent me, drawe him. And I will rayse him vp at the last daye.

⁴⁵It is written in the Prophetes, that they shall all be taught of God. Every man therfore that hath hearde and hath learned of the father commeth vnto me.

⁴⁶Not that eny man hath sene the father save he which is of God: the same hath sene the father.

⁴⁷Verely verely I saye vnto you he that beleveth on me hath everlastinge lyfe.

⁴⁸I am that breed of lyfe.

⁴⁹Youre fathers dyd eate Mana in the wildernes and are deed.

⁵⁰This is that breed which cometh from heaven that he which eateth of it shuld also not dye.

⁵¹I am that lyvinge breed which came doune from heaven. Yf eny man eate of this breed he shall live forever. And the breed that I will geve is my flesshe which I will geve for the lyfe of the worlde

⁵²And the Iewes strove amonge them selves sayinge: How can this felowe geve vs his flesshe to eate?

⁵³Then Iesus sayde vnto them: Verely, verely I saye vnto you except ye eate the flesshe of the sonne of man and drinke his bloude ye shall not have lyfe in you.

⁵⁴Whosoever eateth my flesshe and drinketh my bloude hath eternall lyfe: and I will rayse him vp at the last daye.

⁵⁵For my flesshe is meate in dede: and my bloude is drynke in dede.

⁵⁶He that eateth my flesshe and drynketh my bloude dwelleth in me and I in him.

⁵⁷As the lyvinge father hath sent me even so lyve I by my father: and he that eateth me shall live by me.

⁵⁸This is the breed which cam from heaven: not as youre fathers have eaten Manna and are deed. He that eateth of this breed shall live ever.

⁵⁹These thinges sayd he in the synagoge as he taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰Many of his disciples when they had herde this sayde: this is an herde sayinge: who can abyde the hearinge of it?

⁶¹Iesus knew in him selfe that his disciples murmured at it and sayde vnto them: Doth this offende you?

⁶²What and yf ye shall se the sonne of man ascede vp where he was before?

⁶³It is the sprete that quyckeneth the flesshe proffeteth nothinge. The wordes that I speake vnto you are sprete and lyfe.

⁶⁴But ther are some of you that beleve not. For Iesus knewe from the begynnynge which they were that beleved not and who shuld betraye him.

⁶⁵And he sayde: Therfore sayde I vnto you: that no man can come vnto me except it were geven vnto him of my father.

⁶⁶From that tyme many of his disciples wet backe and walked no moore with him.

⁶⁷Then sayde Iesus to the twelve: will ye alsoo goo awaye?

⁶⁸Then Simon Peter answered: Master to whom shall we goo? Thou haste the wordes of eternall lyfe,

⁶⁹and we beleve and knowe that thou arte Christ the sonne of the lyvinge God.
