John 6:55-60 in English

⁵⁵ For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eateth this bread shall live for ever.

⁵⁹ These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?

⁵⁵ for my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

⁵⁶ One who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in that person.

⁵⁷ Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from Heaven, not like the manna your forefathers ate, and died. A person who eats this bread will live forever.”

⁵⁹ He said this while teaching in the synagogue at Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Therefore when many of His disciples heard this, they said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can stand to hear it?”

⁵⁵ For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

⁵⁸ This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

⁵⁹ These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

⁵⁵ For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live for ever.

⁵⁹ These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?

⁵⁵ because my flesh and my blood are truly spiritual food.

⁵⁶ Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood will have a close relationship with me, and I will have a close relationship with them.

⁵⁷ My Father, who is the source of everything that lives, sent me, and I live because my Father has given me life. Similarly those who eat my flesh will live eternally because of what I do for them.

⁵⁸ I am the true bread that came down from heaven. Although our ancestors ate manna, they later died anyway. But those who eat this bread will live forever.”

⁵⁹ He said this while he was teaching people in ◄the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place► in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ After they heard him say that, many of his disciples said, “What he is teaching is hard to understand; ◄it is very difficult for anyone to accept it!/how can anyone accept it?► RHQ”

⁵⁵ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as our fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

⁵⁹ He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”

⁵⁵ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as our fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

⁵⁹ He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

⁵⁵ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁶⁰ Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”

⁵⁵ My flesh is true food and my blood is true drink.

⁵⁶ He who takes my flesh for food and my blood for drink is in me and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father has sent me, and I have life because of the Father, even so he who takes me for his food will have life because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which has come down from heaven. It is not like the food which your fathers had: they took of the manna, and are dead; but he who takes this bread for food will have life for ever.

⁵⁹ Jesus said these things in the Synagogue while he was teaching at Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Then, hearing this, a number of his disciples said, This is a hard saying; who is able to take in such teaching?

⁵⁵ for my flesh is truly food and my blood is truly drink.

⁵⁶ He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood dwells in me and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father has sent me and I live on account of the Father, he also who eats me shall live also on account of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which has come down out of heaven. Not as the fathers ate and died: he that eats this bread shall live for ever.

⁵⁹ These things he said in the synagogue, teaching in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples having heard it said, This word is hard; who can hear it?

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

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

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

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

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna, and died. Whoever eats this bread shall live forever.”

⁵⁹ These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying; who can hear it?”

⁵⁵ Really, my flesh is genuine food and my blood is genuine drink.

⁵⁶ Whoever chews my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in him.

⁵⁷ 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.

⁵⁸ This is the bread that came down out of Heaven. Whoever feeds on this bread of mine will live forever (in contrast to your fathers who ate the manna and died).”

⁵⁹ He said these things while teaching in a synagogue in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Therefore, upon hearing this many from among His disciples said: “This word is hard! Who is able to hear it?”

⁵⁵ For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

⁵⁶ Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood remain in me, and I remain in them.

⁵⁷ Just as the life-giving Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so anyone who feeds on me will live because of me.

⁵⁸ Now this is the bread that came down from heaven, not the kind your forefathers ate and still died. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever.”

⁵⁹ Jesus explained this while he was teaching in a synagogue at Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many of his disciples when they heard it said, “This is hard to accept! Who can follow it?”

⁵⁵ For my flesh is meat in deede, and my blood is drinke in deede.

⁵⁶ Hee that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As that liuing Father hath sent me, so liue I by the Father, and he that eateth me, euen he shall liue by me.

⁵⁸ This is that bread which came downe from heauen: not as your fathers haue eaten Manna, and are deade. Hee that eateth of this bread, shall liue for euer.

⁵⁵ For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood dwelleth in me, and I in him.

⁵⁹ These things he said in a synagogue, while teaching in Capernaum.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This teaching is hard; who can listen to it?

⁵⁵ For my flesh is true food, and my blood true drink.

⁵⁶ Everyone who takes my flesh for their food, and drinks my blood, remains united to me, and I to them.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me as his messenger, and as I live because the Father lives, so the person who takes me for their food will live because I live.

⁵⁸ That is the bread which has come down from heaven — not such as your ancestors ate, and yet died; the person who takes this bread for their food will live for ever.”

⁵⁹ All this Jesus said in a synagogue, when he was teaching in Capernaum.

⁵⁹ He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion.

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

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