John 6:60-66 in English

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said unto them, Doth this cause you to stumble?

⁶² What then if ye should behold the Son of man ascending where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who it was that should betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it be given unto him of the Father.

⁶⁶ Upon this many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ Jesus, aware that his disciples were complaining about this, asked them, “Does this offend you?

⁶² What if you saw the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?

⁶³ The Spirit gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and life.

⁶⁴ Yet there are some of you who don’t believe.” Jesus knew from the beginning who didn’t believe, and who would betray Him.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this reason I have told you, that no one can come to me, unless it has been granted by the Father.”

⁶⁶ Because of this, many of His disciples turned back and didn’t walk with him any more.

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

⁶¹ When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?

⁶² What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

⁶⁶ From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said unto them, Doth this cause you to stumble?

⁶² What then if ye should behold the Son of man ascending where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who it was that should betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it be given unto him of the Father.

⁶⁶ Upon this many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

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”

⁶¹ Jesus was aware that his disciples were grumbling about it, so he said to them, “◄I am sorry that this is offending you./Is this offending you?► RHQ

⁶² ◄ Perhaps you will believe my message if you see me, the one who came from heaven, ascending there to where I was before!/ (What will you think if you see me, the one who came from heaven, ascending there to where I was before)?► RHQ

⁶³ God's Spirit is the one who gives people eternal life. Human efforts are no help at all for giving people eternal life. The message I have spoken to you gives spiritual life (OR, comes from God's Spirit and gives eternal life.)

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe my message.” Jesus said that because he knew from the time he started MTY his ministry which of them would not believe his message. He also knew who would ◄betray him/enable his enemies to seize him►.

⁶⁵ Then he continued by saying, “That is why I told you that only those whom my Father has enabled to believe in me will come to me and receive eternal life.”

⁶⁶ From that time, many of his disciples left him and no longer went with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

⁶² Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

⁶² Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

⁶² Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ When Jesus became conscious that his disciples were protesting about what he said, he said to them, Does this give you trouble?

⁶² What then will you say if you see the Son of man going up to where he was before?

⁶³ The spirit is the life giver; the flesh is of no value: the words which I have said to you are spirit and they are life.

⁶⁴ But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.

⁶⁵ And he said, This is why I said to you, No man is able to come to me if he is not given the power to do so by the Father.

⁶⁶ Because of what he said, a number of the disciples went back and would no longer go with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmur concerning this, said to them, Does this offend you?

⁶² If then ye see the Son of man ascending up where he was before?

⁶³ It is the Spirit which quickens, the flesh profits nothing: the words which I have spoken unto you are spirit and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would deliver him up.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no one can come to me unless it be given to him from the Father.

⁶⁶ From that time many of his disciples went away back and walked no more with him.

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

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

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

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

⁶⁴ It is the spirit that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing. The words that I have spoken to you, are spirit and life.

⁶⁵ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning, who they were that did not believe, and who he was, that would betray him.

⁶⁶ And he said: Therefore did I say to you, that no man can come to me, unless it be given him by my Father.

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

⁶¹ And Jesus, knowing in Himself that His disciples were murmuring about this, He said to them, “Does this offend you?

⁶² What then if you should see the Son of Man ascending where He was before?

⁶³ It is the Spirit who makes alive; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning who were the ones who did not believe, and who was the one who would betray Him).

⁶⁵ And He said, “Because of this I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”

⁶⁶ From this time many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.

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

⁶¹ So Jesus, knowing in Himself that His disciples were complaining about this, said to them: “Does this offend you?

⁶² What if you should see the Son of the Man going up to where He was at first?

⁶³ The Spirit is the One who makes alive; the flesh does not benefit anything. The words that I speak to you are spirit, are Life.

⁶⁴ But there are some among you who do not believe.” (For Jesus knew from the start who they were who did not believe, and who was betraying Him.)

⁶⁵ And He said, “That is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it has been granted to him by my Father.”

⁶⁶ From that time many of His disciples turned back and stopped going around with Him.

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

⁶¹ Jesus saw that his disciples were complaining about this, so he asked them, “Are you offended by this?

⁶² Then what if you were to see the Son ascend to where he was before?

⁶³ The Spirit gives life; the physical body doesn't do anything. The words I've told you are spirit and life!

⁶⁴ Yet there are some of you who don't trust me.” (Jesus had known from the very beginning who didn't trust him, and who would betray him.)

⁶⁵ Jesus added, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is made possible by the Father.”

⁶⁶ From this time on many of Jesus' disciples gave up and no longer followed him.

⁶⁰ Many therefore of his disciples (when they heard this) sayde, This is an hard saying: who can heare it?

⁶¹ But Iesus knowing in himselfe, that his disciples murmured at this, saide vnto them, Doeth this offend you?

⁶² What then if yee should see that Sonne of man ascend vp where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirite that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing: the woordes that I speake vnto you, are spirite and life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that beleeue not: for Iesus knewe from the beginning, which they were that beleeued not, and who shoulde betray him.

⁶⁵ And hee saide, Therefore saide I vnto you, that no man can come vnto mee, except it be giuen vnto him of my Father.

⁶⁶ From that time, many of his disciples went backe, and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?

⁶² What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

⁶⁶ From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ Jesus therefore knew within himself that his disciples were murmuring about this, and said to them, Doth this offend you?

⁶² What then if ye behold the Son of man ascending where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit which maketh alive; the flesh profiteth nothing. The words which I have spoken to you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, For this cause I have told you, that no one can come to me, unless it hath been given him from the Father.

⁶⁶ From this time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

⁶⁰ On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is harsh doctrine! Who can bear to listen to it?”

⁶¹ But Jesus, aware that his disciples were murmuring about it, said to them,

⁶² “Is this a hindrance to you? What, then, if you should see the Son of Man ascending where he was before?

⁶³ It is the Spirit that gives life; human strength achieves nothing. In the teaching that I have been giving you there is Spirit and there is life.

⁶⁴ Yet there are some of you who do not believe in me.” For Jesus knew from the first who they were that did not believe in him, and who it was that would betray him;

⁶⁵ and he added, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless enabled by the Father.”

⁶⁶ After this many of his disciples drew back, and did not go about with him any longer.

⁶⁰ On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is harsh doctrine! Who can bear to listen to it?”

⁶¹ But Jesus, aware that his disciples were murmuring about it, said to them,

⁶² “Is this a hindrance to you? What, then, if you should see the Son of Man ascending where he was before?

⁶³ It is the Spirit that gives life; human strength achieves nothing. In the teaching that I have been giving you there is Spirit and there is life.

⁶⁴ Yet there are some of you who do not believe in me.” For Jesus knew from the first who they were that did not believe in him, and who it was that would betray him;

⁶⁵ and he added, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless enabled by the Father.”

⁶⁶ After this many of his disciples drew back, and did not go about with him any longer.

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

⁶¹ But Yeshua Salvation knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

⁶² Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Yeshua Salvation knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this cause have I said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by 'Avi ·my Father·.”

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

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

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

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

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

⁶⁴ But 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.

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

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

⁶⁰ Then many of his disciples who heard this said, “This is a difficult teaching; who can accept it?”

⁶¹ Jesus, because he knew in himself that his disciples were grumbling at this, said to them, “Does this offend you?

⁶² Then what if you should see the Son of Man going up to where he was before?

⁶³ It is the Spirit who makes alive; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁴ Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who were the ones that would not believe and who it was who would betray him.

⁶⁵ He said, “It is because of this that I said to you that no one can come to me unless it is granted to him by the Father.”

⁶⁶ Because of this, many of his disciples went away and no longer walked with him.

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

⁶¹ But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

⁶² Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

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

⁶¹ When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said to them, Doth this offend you?

⁶² What if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that reviveth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak to you, they are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁴ But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore I said to you, that no man can come to me, except it were given to him by my Father.

⁶⁵ He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”

⁶⁶ At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

⁶⁰ Therefore many of his disciples hearing this, said, This word is hard, who may hear it?

⁶¹ But Jesus witting at or within himself, that his disciples grutched of this thing, said to them, This thing offendeth you?

⁶² Therefore if ye see man’s Son ascending or going up, where he was before?

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I have spoken to you, be spirit and life.

⁶⁴ But there be some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning, which were believing, and who was to betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore I said to you, that no man may come to me, but it were given to him of my Father.

⁶⁶ From this time many of his disciples went aback, and went not now with him.

⁶⁰ Therefore many of his disciples hearing this, said, This word is hard, who may hear it? (And many of his disciples who heard this, said, This word is hard, who can bear to hear such words? or who can listen to such words?)

⁶¹ But Jesus witting at or within himself, that his disciples grudged of this thing, said to them, This thing offendeth you? (And Jesus knowing within himself, that his disciples grumbled about this, said to them, This offendeth you?)

⁶² Therefore if ye see man’s Son ascending up, where he was before? (And so what if ye see man’s Son ascending up, to the place where he was before?)

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I have spoken to you, be spirit and life. (It is the Spirit that giveth life, the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I have spoken to you, be of the Spirit and of life.)

⁶⁴ But there be some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning, which were believing (or who believed in him), and who was to betray him.

⁶⁵ And he said, Therefore I said to you, that no man may come to me, no but it were given to him of my Father (or unless it was granted to him by my Father).

⁶⁶ From this time many of his disciples went aback, and went not now with him.

⁶⁰ He seide these thingis in the synagoge, techynge in Cafarnaum.

⁶¹ Therfor many of hise disciplis herynge, seiden, This word is hard, who may here it?

⁶² But Jhesus witynge at hym silf, that hise disciplis grutchiden of this thing, seide to hem, This thing sclaundrith you?

⁶³ Therfor if ye seen mannus sone stiynge, where he was bifor?

⁶⁴ It is the spirit that quykeneth, the fleisch profitith no thing; the wordis that Y haue spokun to you, ben spirit and lijf.

⁶⁵ But ther ben summe of you that bileuen not. For Jhesus wiste fro the bigynnynge, which weren bileuynge, and who was to bitraye hym.

⁶⁶ And he seide, Therfor Y seide to you, that no man may come to me, but it were youun to hym of my fadir.

⁶⁰ many, therefore, of his disciples having heard, said, 'This word is hard; who is able to hear it?'

⁶¹ And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, 'Doth this stumble you?

⁶² if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?

⁶³ the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;

⁶⁴ but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,

⁶⁵ and he said, 'Because of this I have said to you — No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.'

⁶⁶ From this time many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him,
