John 6:52-63

⁵²If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever; and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, for the life of the world.

⁵³The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

⁵⁴Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you.

⁵⁵He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day.

⁵⁶For my flesh is meat indeed: and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁷He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁸As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same also shall live by me.

⁵⁹This is the bread that came down from heaven. Not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead. He that eateth this bread, shall live for ever.

⁶⁰These things he said, teaching in the synagogue, in Capharnaum.

⁶¹Many therefore of his disciples, hearing it, said: This saying is hard, and who can hear it?

⁶²But Jesus, knowing in himself, that his disciples murmured at this, said to them: Doth this scandalize you?

⁶³If then you shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
