耶稣给五千人吃饱

1这事以后，耶稣渡过加利利海，就是提比哩亚海。

2有许多人因为看见他在病人身上所行的神迹，就跟随他。

3耶稣上了山，和门徒一同坐在那里。

4那时犹太人的逾越节近了。

5耶稣举目看见许多人来，就对腓力说：「我们从哪里买饼叫这些人吃呢？」（

6他说这话是要试验腓力；他自己原知道要怎样行。）

7腓力回答说：「就是二十两银子的饼，叫他们各人吃一点也是不够的。」

8有一个门徒，就是西门·彼得的兄弟安得烈，对耶稣说：

9「在这里有一个孩童，带着五个大麦饼、两条鱼，只是分给这许多人还算什么呢？」

10耶稣说：「你们叫众人坐下。」原来那地方的草多，众人就坐下，数目约有五千。

11耶稣拿起饼来，祝谢了，就分给那坐着的人；分鱼也是这样，都随着他们所要的。

12他们吃饱了，耶稣对门徒说：「把剩下的零碎收拾起来，免得有糟蹋的。」

13他们便将那五个大麦饼的零碎，就是众人吃了剩下的，收拾起来，装满了十二个篮子。

14众人看见耶稣所行的神迹，就说：「这真是那要到世间来的先知！」

15耶稣既知道众人要来强逼他作王，就独自又退到山上去了。

耶稣在海面上行走

16到了晚上，他的门徒下海边去，

17上了船，要过海往迦百农去。天已经黑了，耶稣还没有来到他们那里。

18忽然狂风大作，海就翻腾起来。

19门徒摇橹，约行了十里多路，看见耶稣在海面上走，渐渐近了船，他们就害怕。

20耶稣对他们说：「是我，不要怕！」

21门徒就喜欢接他上船，船立时到了他们所要去的地方。

耶稣是生命的粮

22第二日，站在海那边的众人知道那里没有别的船，只有一只小船，又知道耶稣没有同他的门徒上船，乃是门徒自己去的。

23然而，有几只小船从提比哩亚来，靠近主祝谢后分饼给人吃的地方。

24众人见耶稣和门徒都不在那里，就上了船，往迦百农去找耶稣。

25既在海那边找着了，就对他说：「拉比，是几时到这里来的？」

26耶稣回答说：「我实实在在地告诉你们，你们找我，并不是因见了神迹，乃是因吃饼得饱。

27不要为那必坏的食物劳力，要为那存到永生的食物劳力，就是人子要赐给你们的，因为人子是父 神所印证的。」

28众人问他说：「我们当行什么才算做 神的工呢？」

29耶稣回答说：「信 神所差来的，这就是做 神的工。」

30他们又说：「你行什么神迹，叫我们看见就信你；你到底做什么事呢？

31我们的祖宗在旷野吃过吗哪，如经上写着说：『他从天上赐下粮来给他们吃。』」

32耶稣说：「我实实在在地告诉你们，那从天上来的粮不是摩西赐给你们的，乃是我父将天上来的真粮赐给你们。

33因为 神的粮就是那从天上降下来、赐生命给世界的。」

34他们说：「主啊，常将这粮赐给我们！」

35耶稣说：「我就是生命的粮。到我这里来的，必定不饿；信我的，永远不渴。

36只是我对你们说过，你们已经看见我，还是不信。

37凡父所赐给我的人必到我这里来；到我这里来的，我总不丢弃他。

38因为我从天上降下来，不是要按自己的意思行，乃是要按那差我来者的意思行。

39差我来者的意思就是：他所赐给我的，叫我一个也不失落，在末日却叫他复活。

40因为我父的意思是叫一切见子而信的人得永生，并且在末日我要叫他复活。」

41犹太人因为耶稣说「我是从天上降下来的粮」，就私下议论他，

42说：「这不是约瑟的儿子耶稣吗？他的父母我们岂不认得吗？他如今怎么说『我是从天上降下来的』呢？」

43耶稣回答说：「你们不要大家议论。

44若不是差我来的父吸引人，就没有能到我这里来的；到我这里来的，在末日我要叫他复活。

45在先知书上写着说：『他们都要蒙 神的教训。』凡听见父之教训又学习的，就到我这里来。

46这不是说有人看见过父，惟独从 神来的，他看见过父。

47我实实在在地告诉你们，信的人有永生。

48我就是生命的粮。

49你们的祖宗在旷野吃过吗哪，还是死了。

50这是从天上降下来的粮，叫人吃了就不死。

51我是从天上降下来生命的粮；人若吃这粮，就必永远活着。我所要赐的粮就是我的肉，为世人之生命所赐的。」

52因此，犹太人彼此争论说：「这个人怎能把他的肉给我们吃呢？」

53耶稣说：「我实实在在地告诉你们，你们若不吃人子的肉，不喝人子的血，就没有生命在你们里面。

54吃我肉、喝我血的人就有永生，在末日我要叫他复活。

55我的肉真是可吃的，我的血真是可喝的。

56吃我肉、喝我血的人常在我里面，我也常在他里面。

57永活的父怎样差我来，我又因父活着；照样，吃我肉的人也要因我活着。

58这就是从天上降下来的粮。吃这粮的人就永远活着，不像你们的祖宗吃过吗哪还是死了。」

59这些话是耶稣在迦百农会堂里教训人说的。

永生的话语

60他的门徒中有好些人听见了，就说：「这话甚难，谁能听呢？」

61耶稣心里知道门徒为这话议论，就对他们说：「这话是叫你们厌弃吗？

62倘或你们看见人子升到他原来所在之处，怎么样呢？

63叫人活着的乃是灵，肉体是无益的。我对你们所说的话就是灵，就是生命。

64只是你们中间有不信的人。」耶稣从起头就知道谁不信他，谁要卖他。

65耶稣又说：「所以我对你们说过，若不是蒙我父的恩赐，没有人能到我这里来。」

66从此，他门徒中多有退去的，不再和他同行。

67耶稣就对那十二个门徒说：「你们也要去吗？」

68西门·彼得回答说：「主啊，你有永生之道，我们还归从谁呢？

69我们已经信了，又知道你是 神的圣者。」

70耶稣说：「我不是拣选了你们十二个门徒吗？但你们中间有一个是魔鬼。」

71耶稣这话是指着加略人西门的儿子犹大说的；他本是十二个门徒里的一个，后来要卖耶稣的。

1After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is that of Tiberias.

2And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

3Jesus therefore went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

4Now the pasch, the festival day of the Jews, was near at hand.

5When Jesus therefore had lifted up his eyes, and seen that a very great multitude cometh to him, he said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

6And this he said to try him; for he himself knew what he would do.

7Philip answered him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little.

8One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith to him:

9There is a boy here that hath five barley loaves, and two fishes; but what are these among so many?

10Then Jesus said: Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. The men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand.

11And Jesus took the loaves: and when he had given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down. In like manner also of the fishes, as much as they would.

12And when they were filled, he said to his disciples: Gather up the fragments that remain, lest they be lost.

13They gathered up therefore, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above to them that had eaten.

14Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet, that is to come into the world.

15Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force, and make him king, fled again into the mountain himself alone.

16And when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea.

17And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capharnaum; and it was now dark, and Jesus was not come unto them.

18And the sea arose, by reason of a great wind that blew.

19When they had rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship, and they were afraid.

20But he saith to them: It is I; be not afraid.

21They were willing therefore to take him into the ship; and presently the ship was at the land to which they were going.

22The next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea, saw that there was no other ship there but one, and that Jesus had not entered into the ship with his disciples, but that his disciples were gone away alone.

23But other ships came in from Tiberias; nigh unto the place where they had eaten the bread, the Lord giving thanks.

24When therefore the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they took shipping, and came to Capharnaum, seeking for Jesus.

25And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him: Rabbi, when camest thou hither?

26Jesus answered them, and said: Amen, amen I say to you, you seek me, not because you have seen miracles, but because you did eat of the loaves, and were filled.

27Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto life everlasting, which the Son of man will give you. For him hath God, the Father, sealed.

28They said therefore unto him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?

29Jesus answered, and said to them: This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he hath sent.

30They said therefore to him: What sign therefore dost thou shew, that we may see, and may believe thee? What dost thou work?

31Our fathers did eat manna in the desert, as it is written: He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

32Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you; Moses gave you not bread from heaven, but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

33For the bread of God is that which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world.

34They said therefore unto him: Lord, give us always this bread.

35And Jesus said to them: I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger: and he that believeth in me shall never thirst.

36But I said unto you, that you also have seen me, and you believe not.

37All that the Father giveth to me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me, I will not cast out.

38Because I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

39Now this is the will of the Father who sent me: that of all that he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again in the last day.

40And this is the will of my Father that sent me: that every one who seeth the Son, and believeth in him, may have life everlasting, and I will raise him up in the last day.

41The Jews therefore murmured at him, because he had said: I am the living bread which came down from heaven.

42And they said: Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then saith he, I came down from heaven?

43Jesus therefore answered, and said to them: Murmur not among yourselves.

44No man can come to me, except the Father, who hath sent me, draw him; and I will raise him up in the last day.

45It is written in the prophets: And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard of the Father, and hath learned, cometh to me.

46Not that any man hath seen the Father; but he who is of God, he hath seen the Father.

47Amen, amen I say unto you: He that believeth in me, hath everlasting life.

48I am the bread of life.

49Your fathers did eat manna in the desert, and are dead.

50This is the bread which cometh down from heaven; that if any man eat of it, he may not die.

51I am the living bread which came down from heaven.

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?

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

65But 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.

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

67After this many of his disciples went back; and walked no more with him.

68Then Jesus said to the twelve: Will you also go away?

69And Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

70And we have believed and have known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of God.

71Jesus answered them: Have not I chosen you twelve; and one of you is a devil?

72Now he meant Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon: for this same was about to betray him, whereas he was one of the twelve.
