¹After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is also called the Sea of Tiberias.

KJVAfter^G3326 these things^G5023 Jesus^G2424 went^G565^(G5627) over^G4008 the sea^G2281 of Galilee^G1056, which is the sea of Tiberias^G5085.

² A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick.

KJVAnd^G2532 a great^G4183 multitude^G3793 followed^G190^(G5707) him^G846, because^G3754 they saw^G3708^(G5707) his^G846 miracles^G4592 which^G3739 he did^G4160^(G5707) on^G1909 them that were diseased^G770^(G5723).

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

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 went up^G424^(G5627) into^G1519 a mountain^G3735, and^G2532 there^G1563 he sat^G2521^(G5711) with^G3326 his^G846 disciples^G3101.

⁴ Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.

KJVAnd^G1161 the passover^G3957, a feast^G1859 of the Jews^G2453, was^G2258^(G5713) nigh^G1451.

⁵ Jesus therefore, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great multitude was coming to him, said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?”

KJVWhen Jesus^G2424 then^G3767 lifted up^G1869^(G5660) his eyes^G3788, and^G2532 saw^G2300^(G5666)^G3754 a great^G4183 company^G3793 come^G2064^(G5736) unto^G4314 him^G846, he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto^G4314 Philip^G5376, Whence^G4159 shall we buy^G59^(G5692) bread^G740, that^G2443 these^G3778 may eat^G5315^(G5632)?

⁶ He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.

KJVAnd^G1161 this^G5124 he said^G3004^(G5707) to prove^G3985^(G5723) him^G846: for^G1063 he himself^G846 knew^G1492^(G5715) what^G5101 he would^G3195^(G5707) do^G4160^(G5721).

⁷ Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may receive a little.”

KJVPhilip^G5376 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, Two hundred^G1250 pennyworth^G1220 of bread^G740 is^G714 not^G3756 sufficient^G714^(G5719) for them^G846, that^G2443 every one^G1538 of them^G846 may take^G2983^(G5632) a^G5100 little^G1024.

⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,

KJVOne^G1520 of^G1537 his^G846 disciples^G3101, Andrew^G406, Simon^G4613 Peter's^G4074 brother^G80, saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846,

⁹ “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?”

KJVThere is^G2076^(G5748) a^G1520 lad^G3808 here^G5602, which^G3739 hath^G2192^(G5719) five^G4002 barley^G2916 loaves^G740, and^G2532 two^G1417 small fishes^G3795: but^G235 what^G5101 are^G2076^(G5748) they^G5023 among^G1519 so many^G5118?

¹⁰ Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627), Make^G4160^(G5657) the men^G444 sit down^G377^(G5629). Now^G1161 there was^G2258^(G5713) much^G4183 grass^G5528 in^G1722 the place^G5117. So^G3767 the men^G435 sat down^G377^(G5627), in number^G706 about^G5616 five thousand^G4000.

¹¹ Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down, likewise also of the fish as much as they desired.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 took^G2983^(G5627) the loaves^G740; and^G2532 when he had given thanks^G2168^(G5660), he distributed^G1239^(G5656) to the disciples^G3101, and^G1161 the disciples^G3101 to them that were set down^G345^(G5740); and^G2532 likewise^G3668 of^G1537 the fishes^G3795 as much as^G3745 they would^G2309^(G5707).

¹² When they were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”

KJVWhen^G1161^G5613 they were filled^G1705^(G5681), he said^G3004^(G5719) unto his^G846 disciples^G3101, Gather up^G4863^(G5628) the fragments^G2801 that remain^G4052^(G5660), that nothing^G3363^G5100 be lost^G622^(G5643).

¹³ So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.

KJVTherefore^G3767 they gathered them together^G4863^(G5627), and^G2532 filled^G1072^(G5656) twelve^G1427 baskets^G2894 with the fragments^G2801 of^G1537 the five^G4002 barley^G2916 loaves^G740, which^G3739 remained over and above^G4052^(G5656) unto them that had eaten^G977^(G5761).

¹⁴ When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”

KJVThen^G3767 those men^G444, when they had seen^G1492^(G5631) the miracle^G4592 that^G3739 Jesus^G2424 did^G4160^(G5656), said^G3004^(G5707), This^G3754^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) of a truth^G230 that prophet^G4396 that should come^G2064^(G5740) into^G1519 the world^G2889.

¹⁵ Jesus therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

KJVWhen Jesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 perceived^G1097^(G5631) that^G3754 they would^G3195^(G5719) come^G2064^(G5738) and^G2532 take^G726 him^G846 by force^G726^(G5721), to^G2443 make^G4160^(G5661) him^G846 a king^G935, he departed^G402^(G5656) again^G3825 into^G1519 a mountain^G3735 himself^G846 alone^G3441.

¹⁶ When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.

KJVAnd^G1161 when^G5613 even^G3798 was now come^G1096^(G5633), his^G846 disciples^G3101 went down^G2597^(G5627) unto^G1909 the sea^G2281,

¹⁷ They entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

KJVAnd^G2532 entered^G1684^(G5631) into^G1519 a ship^G4143, and went^G2064^(G5711) over^G4008 the sea^G2281 toward^G1519 Capernaum^G2584. And^G2532 it was^G1096^(G5715) now^G2235 dark^G4653, and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 was^G2064 not^G3756 come^G2064^(G5715) to^G4314 them^G846.

¹⁸ The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.

KJVAnd^G5037 the sea^G2281 arose^G1326^(G5712) by reason of a great^G3173 wind^G417 that blew^G4154^(G5723).

¹⁹ When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.

KJVSo^G3767 when they had rowed^G1643^(G5761) about^G5613 five^G4002 and twenty^G1501 or^G2228 thirty^G5144 furlongs^G4712, they see^G2334^(G5719) Jesus^G2424 walking^G4043^(G5723) on^G1909 the sea^G2281, and^G2532 drawing^G1096^(G5740) nigh^G1451 unto the ship^G4143: and^G2532 they were afraid^G5399^(G5675).

²⁰ But he said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid.”

KJVBut^G1161 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, It is^G1510^(G5748) I^G1473; be^G5399 not^G3361 afraid^G5399^(G5737).

²¹ They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

KJVThen^G3767 they willingly^G2309^(G5707) received^G2983^(G5629) him^G846 into^G1519 the ship^G4143: and^G2532 immediately^G2112 the ship^G4143 was^G1096^(G5633) at^G1909 the land^G1093 whither^G1519^G3739 they went^G5217^(G5707).

²² On the next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except the one in which his disciples had embarked, and that Jesus hadn’t entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.

KJVThe day following^G1887, when the people^G3793 which^G3588 stood^G2476^(G5761) on the other side^G4008 of the sea^G2281 saw^G1492^(G5631) that^G3754 there was^G2258^(G5713) none^G3756 other^G243 boat^G4142 there^G1563, save^G1508 that^G1565 one^G1520 whereinto^G1519^G3739 his^G846 disciples^G3101 were entered^G1684^(G5627), and^G2532 that^G3754 Jesus^G2424 went^G4897 not^G3756 with^G4897^(G5627) his^G846 disciples^G3101 into^G1519 the boat^G4142, but^G235 that his^G846 disciples^G3101 were gone away^G565^(G5627) alone^G3441;

²³ However, boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

KJV(Howbeit^G235^G1161 there came^G2064^(G5627) other^G243 boats^G4142 from^G1537 Tiberias^G5085 nigh^G1451 unto the place^G5117 where^G3699 they did eat^G5315^(G5627) bread^G740, after that the Lord^G2962 had given thanks^G2168^(G5660):)

²⁴ When the multitude therefore saw that Jesus wasn’t there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

KJVWhen^G3753 the people^G3793 therefore^G3767 saw^G1492^(G5627) that^G3754 Jesus^G2424 was^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 there^G1563, neither^G3761 his^G846 disciples^G3101, they^G846 also^G2532 took^G1684^(G5627)^G1519 shipping^G4143, and^G2532 came^G2064^(G5627) to^G1519 Capernaum^G2584, seeking for^G2212^(G5723) Jesus^G2424.

²⁵ When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”

KJVAnd^G2532 when they had found^G2147^(G5631) him^G846 on the other side^G4008 of the sea^G2281, they said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Rabbi^G4461, when^G4219 camest thou^G1096^(G5754) hither^G5602?

²⁶ Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846 and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), Verily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Ye seek^G2212^(G5719) me^G3165, not^G3756 because^G3754 ye saw^G1492^(G5627) the miracles^G4592, but^G235 because^G3754 ye did eat^G5315^(G5627) of^G1537 the loaves^G740, and^G2532 were filled^G5526^(G5681).

²⁷ Don’t work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him.”

KJVLabour^G2038^(G5737) not^G3361 for the meat^G1035 which^G3588 perisheth^G622^(G5734), but^G235 for that meat^G1035 which^G3588 endureth^G3306^(G5723) unto^G1519 everlasting^G166 life^G2222, which^G3739 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 shall give^G1325^(G5692) unto you^G5213: for^G1063 him^G5126 hath^G4972 God^G2316 the Father^G3962 sealed^G4972^(G5656).

²⁸ They said therefore to him, “What must we do, that we may work the works of God?”

KJVThen^G3767 said they^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, What^G5101 shall we do^G4160^(G5719)^(G5625)^G4160^(G5725), that^G2443 we might work^G2038^(G5741) the works^G2041 of God^G2316?

²⁹ Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, This^G5124 is^G2076^(G5748) the work^G2041 of God^G2316, that^G2443 ye believe^G4100^(G5661) on^G1519 him^G3739 whom^G1565 he hath sent^G649^(G5656).

³⁰ They said therefore to him, “What then do you do for a sign, that we may see and believe you? What work do you do?

KJVThey said^G2036^(G5627) therefore^G3767 unto him^G846, What^G5101 sign^G4592 shewest^G4160^(G5719) thou^G4771 then^G3767, that^G2443 we may see^G1492^(G5632), and^G2532 believe^G4100^(G5661) thee^G4671? what^G5101 dost thou work^G2038^(G5736)?

³¹ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”

KJVOur^G2257 fathers^G3962 did eat^G5315^(G5627) manna^G3131 in^G1722 the desert^G2048; as^G2531 it is^G2076^(G5748) written^G1125^(G5772), He gave^G1325^(G5656) them^G846 bread^G740 from^G1537 heaven^G3772 to eat^G5315^(G5629).

³² Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, it wasn’t Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.

KJVThen^G3767 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Verily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Moses^G3475 gave^G1325^(G5758) you^G5213 not^G3756 that bread^G740 from^G1537 heaven^G3772; but^G235 my^G3450 Father^G3962 giveth^G1325^(G5719) you^G5213 the true^G228 bread^G740 from^G1537 heaven^G3772.

³³ For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.”

KJVFor^G1063 the bread^G740 of God^G2316 is he^G2076^(G5748) which^G3588 cometh down^G2597^(G5723) from^G1537 heaven^G3772, and^G2532 giveth^G1325^(G5723) life^G2222 unto the world^G2889.

³⁴ They said therefore to him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”

KJVThen^G3767 said they^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, Lord^G2962, evermore^G3842 give^G1325^(G5628) us^G2254 this^G5126 bread^G740.

³⁵ Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) the bread^G740 of life^G2222: he that cometh^G2064^(G5740) to^G4314 me^G3165 shall never^G3364 hunger^G3983^(G5661); and^G2532 he that believeth^G4100^(G5723) on^G1519 me^G1691 shall^G1372 never^G3364^G4455 thirst^G1372^(G5661).

³⁶ But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you don’t believe.

KJVBut^G235 I said^G2036^(G5627) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 ye^G3708 also^G2532 have seen^G3708^(G5758) me^G3165, and^G2532 believe^G4100^(G5719) not^G3756.

³⁷ All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.

KJVAll^G3956 that^G3739 the Father^G3962 giveth^G1325^(G5719) me^G3427 shall come^G2240^(G5692) to^G4314 me^G1691; and^G2532 him that cometh^G2064^(G5740) to^G4314 me^G3165 I will^G1544 in no wise^G3364 cast^G1544^(G5632) out^G1854.

³⁸ For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

KJVFor^G3754 I came down^G2597^(G5758) from^G1537 heaven^G3772, not^G3756 to^G2443 do^G4160^(G5725) mine own^G1699 will^G2307, but^G235 the will^G2307 of him that sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165.

³⁹ This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.

KJVAnd^G1161 this^G5124 is^G2076^(G5748) the Father's^G3962 will^G2307 which^G3588 hath sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165, that^G2443 of all^G3956 which^G3739 he hath given^G1325^(G5758) me^G3427 I should lose^G622^(G5661) nothing^G3361^G1537^G846, but^G235 should raise^G450 it^G846 up again^G450^(G5692) at^G1722 the last^G2078 day^G2250.

⁴⁰ This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

KJVAnd^G1161 this^G5124 is^G2076^(G5748) the will^G2307 of him that sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165, that^G2443 every one^G3956 which^G3588 seeth^G2334^(G5723) the Son^G5207, and^G2532 believeth^G4100^(G5723) on^G1519 him^G846, may have^G2192^(G5725) everlasting^G166 life^G2222: and^G2532 I^G1473 will raise^G450 him^G846 up^G450^(G5692) at the last^G2078 day^G2250.

⁴¹ The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, “I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”

KJVThe Jews^G2453 then^G3767 murmured^G1111^(G5707) at^G4012 him^G846, because^G3754 he said^G2036^(G5627), I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) the bread^G740 which^G3588 came down^G2597^(G5631) from^G1537 heaven^G3772.

⁴² They said, “Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say, ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”

KJVAnd^G2532 they said^G3004^(G5707), Is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 this^G3778 Jesus^G2424, the son^G5207 of Joseph^G2501, whose^G3739 father^G3962 and^G2532 mother^G3384 we^G2249 know^G1492^(G5758)? how is it^G4459 then^G3767 that he^G3778 saith^G3004^(G5719),^G3754 I came down^G2597^(G5758) from^G1537 heaven^G3772?

⁴³ Therefore Jesus answered them, “Don’t murmur among yourselves.

KJVJesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 answered^G611^(G5662) and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Murmur^G1111^(G5720) not^G3361 among^G3326 yourselves^G240.

⁴⁴ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up in the last day.

KJVNo man^G3762 can^G1410^(G5736) come^G2064^(G5629) to^G4314 me^G3165, except^G3362 the Father^G3962 which^G3588 hath sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165 draw^G1670^(G5661) him^G846: and^G2532 I^G1473 will raise^G450 him^G846 up^G450^(G5692) at the last^G2078 day^G2250.

⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, comes to me.

KJVIt is^G2076^(G5748) written^G1125^(G5772) in^G1722 the prophets^G4396, And^G2532 they shall be^G2071^(G5704) all^G3956 taught^G1318 of God^G2316. Every man^G3956 therefore^G3767 that hath heard^G191^(G5660), and^G2532 hath learned^G3129^(G5631) of^G3844 the Father^G3962, cometh^G2064^(G5736) unto^G4314 me^G3165.

⁴⁶ Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.

KJVNot^G3756 that^G3754 any man^G5100 hath seen^G3708^(G5758) the Father^G3962, save^G1508 he which^G3588 is^G3844^G5607^(G5752) of God^G2316, he^G3778 hath seen^G3708^(G5758) the Father^G3962.

⁴⁷ Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.

KJVVerily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, He that believeth^G4100^(G5723) on^G1519 me^G1691 hath^G2192^(G5719) everlasting^G166 life^G2222.

⁴⁸ I am the bread of life.

KJVI^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) that bread^G740 of life^G2222.

⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.

KJVYour^G5216 fathers^G3962 did eat^G5315^(G5627) manna^G3131 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048, and^G2532 are dead^G599^(G5627).

⁵⁰ This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.

KJVThis^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) the bread^G740 which^G3588 cometh down^G2597^(G5723) from^G1537 heaven^G3772, that^G3363 a man^G5100 may eat^G5315^(G5632) thereof^G1537^G846, and^G2532 not^G3363 die^G599^(G5632).

⁵¹ I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”

KJVI^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) the living^G2198^(G5723) bread^G740 which^G3588 came down^G2597^(G5631) from^G1537 heaven^G3772: if^G1437 any man^G5100 eat^G5315^(G5632) of^G1537 this^G5127 bread^G740, he shall live^G2198^(G5695) for^G1519 ever^G165: and^G1161^G2532 the bread^G740 that^G3739 I^G1473 will give^G1325^(G5692) is^G2076^(G5748) my^G3450 flesh^G4561, which^G3739 I^G1473 will give^G1325^(G5692) for^G5228 the life^G2222 of the world^G2889.

⁵² The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”

KJVThe Jews^G2453 therefore^G3767 strove^G3164^(G5711) among^G4314 themselves^G240, saying^G3004^(G5723), How^G4459 can^G1410^(G5736) this man^G3778 give^G1325^(G5629) us^G2254 his flesh^G4561 to eat^G5315^(G5629)?

⁵³ Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don’t have life in yourselves.

KJVThen^G3767 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Verily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Except^G3362 ye eat^G5315^(G5632) the flesh^G4561 of the Son^G5207 of man^G444, and^G2532 drink^G4095^(G5632) his^G846 blood^G129, ye have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 life^G2222 in^G1722 you^G1438.

⁵⁴ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

KJVWhoso eateth^G5176^(G5723) my^G3450 flesh^G4561, and^G2532 drinketh^G4095^(G5723) my^G3450 blood^G129, hath^G2192^(G5719) eternal^G166 life^G2222; and^G2532 I^G1473 will raise^G450 him^G846 up^G450^(G5692) at the last^G2078 day^G2250.

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

KJVFor^G1063 my^G3450 flesh^G4561 is^G2076^(G5748) meat^G1035 indeed^G230, and^G2532 my^G3450 blood^G129 is^G2076^(G5748) drink^G4213 indeed^G230.

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

KJVHe that eateth^G5176^(G5723) my^G3450 flesh^G4561, and^G2532 drinketh^G4095^(G5723) my^G3450 blood^G129, dwelleth^G3306^(G5719) in^G1722 me^G1698, and I^G2504 in^G1722 him^G846.

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.

KJVAs^G2531 the living^G2198^(G5723) Father^G3962 hath sent^G649^(G5656) me^G3165, and I^G2504 live^G2198^(G5719) by^G1223 the Father^G3962: so^G2532 he that eateth^G5176^(G5723) me^G3165, even he^G2548 shall live^G2198^(G5695) by^G1223 me^G1691.

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.”

KJVThis^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) that bread^G740 which^G3588 came down^G2597^(G5631) from^G1537 heaven^G3772: not^G3756 as^G2531 your^G5216 fathers^G3962 did eat^G5315^(G5627) manna^G3131, and^G2532 are dead^G599^(G5627): he that eateth^G5176^(G5723) of this^G5126 bread^G740 shall live^G2198^(G5695) for^G1519 ever^G165.

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

KJVThese things^G5023 said he^G2036^(G5627) in^G1722 the synagogue^G4864, as he taught^G1321^(G5723) in^G1722 Capernaum^G2584.

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

KJVMany^G4183 therefore^G3767 of^G1537 his^G846 disciples^G3101, when they had heard^G191^(G5660) this, said^G2036^(G5627), This^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) an hard^G4642 saying^G3056; who^G5101 can^G1410^(G5736) hear^G191^(G5721) it^G846?

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

KJVWhen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 knew^G1492^(G5761) in^G1722 himself^G1438 that^G3754 his^G846 disciples^G3101 murmured^G1111^(G5719) at^G4012 it^G5127, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Doth this^G5124 offend^G4624^(G5719) you^G5209?

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

KJVWhat and^G3767 if^G1437 ye shall see^G2334^(G5725) the Son^G5207 of man^G444 ascend up^G305^(G5723) where^G3699 he was^G2258^(G5713) before^G4386?

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

KJVIt is^G2076^(G5748) the spirit^G4151 that quickeneth^G2227^(G5723); the flesh^G4561^G3756 profiteth^G5623^(G5719) nothing^G3762: the words^G4487 that^G3739 I^G1473 speak^G2980^(G5719) unto you^G5213, they are^G2076^(G5748) spirit^G4151, and^G2532 they are^G2076^(G5748) life^G2222.

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.

KJVBut^G235 there are^G1526^(G5748) some^G5100 of^G1537 you^G5216 that^G3739 believe^G4100^(G5719) not^G3756. For^G1063 Jesus^G2424 knew^G1492^(G5715) from^G1537 the beginning^G746 who^G5101 they were^G1526^(G5748) that believed^G4100^(G5723) not^G3361, and^G2532 who^G5101 should^G2076^(G5748) betray^G3860^(G5694) him^G846.

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.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5707), Therefore^G1223^G5124 said I^G2046^(G5758) unto you^G5213, that^G3754 no man^G3762 can^G1410^(G5736) come^G2064^(G5629) unto^G4314 me^G3165, except^G3362 it were^G5600^(G5753) given^G1325^(G5772) unto him^G846 of^G1537 my^G3450 Father^G3962.

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

KJVFrom^G1537 that^G5127 time many^G4183 of his^G846 disciples^G3101 went^G565^(G5627) back^G1519^G3694, and^G2532 walked^G4043^(G5707) no more^G3765 with^G3326 him^G846.

⁶⁷ Jesus said therefore to the twelve, “You don’t also want to go away, do you?”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 unto the twelve^G1427,^G3361 Will^G2309^(G5719) ye^G5210 also^G2532 go away^G5217^(G5721)?

⁶⁸ Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.

KJVThen^G3767 Simon^G4613 Peter^G4074 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, Lord^G2962, to^G4314 whom^G5101 shall we go^G565^(G5695)? thou hast^G2192^(G5719) the words^G4487 of eternal^G166 life^G2222.

⁶⁹ We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

KJVAnd^G2532 we^G2249 believe^G4100^(G5758) and^G2532 are sure^G1097^(G5758) that^G3754 thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) that Christ^G5547, the Son^G5207 of the living^G2198^(G5723) God^G2316.

⁷⁰ Jesus answered them, “Didn’t I choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?”

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846, Have^G1586 not^G3756 I^G1473 chosen^G1586^(G5668) you^G5209 twelve^G1427, and^G2532 one^G1520 of^G1537 you^G5216 is^G2076^(G5748) a devil^G1228?

⁷¹ Now he spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.

KJV^G1161 He spake^G3004^(G5707) of Judas^G2455 Iscariot^G2469 the son of Simon^G4613: for^G1063 he^G3778 it was that should^G3195^(G5707) betray^G3860^(G5721) him^G846, being^G5607^(G5752) one^G1520 of^G1537 the twelve^G1427.

WEB·John 5

¹After these things, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

KJVAfter^G3326 this^G5023 there was^G2258^(G5713) a feast^G1859 of the Jews^G2453; and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 went up^G305^(G5627) to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414.

² Now in Jerusalem by the sheep gate, there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, “Bethesda”, having five porches.

KJVNow^G1161 there is^G2076^(G5748) at^G1722 Jerusalem^G2414 by^G1909 the sheep^G4262 market a pool^G2861, which^G3588 is called^G1951^(G5746) in the Hebrew tongue^G1447 Bethesda^G964, having^G2192^(G5723) five^G4002 porches^G4745.

³ In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water;

KJVIn^G1722 these^G5025 lay^G2621^(G5711) a great^G4183 multitude^G4128 of impotent folk^G770^(G5723), of blind^G5185, halt^G5560, withered^G3584, waiting for^G1551^(G5740) the moving^G2796 of the water^G5204.

⁴ for an angel went down at certain times into the pool and stirred up the water. Whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was healed of whatever disease he had.

KJVFor^G1063 an angel^G32 went down^G2597^(G5707) at^G2596 a certain season^G2540 into^G1722 the pool^G2861, and^G2532 troubled^G5015^(G5707) the water^G5204: whosoever then^G3767 first^G4413 after^G3326 the troubling^G5016 of the water^G5204 stepped in^G1684^(G5631) was made^G1096^(G5711) whole^G5199 of^G3739 whatsoever^G1221 disease^G3553 he had^G2722^(G5712).

⁵ A certain man was there who had been sick for thirty-eight years.

KJVAnd^G1161 a certain^G5100 man^G444 was^G2258^(G5713) there^G1563, which had^G2192^(G5723) an infirmity^G1722^G769 thirty^G5144 and eight^G3638 years^G2094.

⁶ When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to be made well?”

KJVWhen Jesus^G2424 saw^G1492^(G5631) him^G5126 lie^G2621^(G5740), and^G2532 knew^G1097^(G5631) that^G3754 he had been^G2192^(G5719) now^G2235 a long^G4183 time^G5550 in that case, he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Wilt thou^G2309^(G5719) be made^G1096^(G5635) whole^G5199?

⁷ The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, another steps down before me.”

KJVThe impotent man^G770^(G5723) answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, Sir^G2962, I have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 man^G444, when^G3752 the water^G5204 is troubled^G5015^(G5686), to^G2443 put^G906^(G5725) me^G3165 into^G1519 the pool^G2861: but^G1161 while^G1722^G3739 I^G1473 am coming^G2064^(G5736), another^G243 steppeth down^G2597^(G5719) before^G4253 me^G1700.

⁸ Jesus said to him, “Arise, take up your mat, and walk.”

KJVJesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Rise^G1453^(G5669), take up^G142^(G5657) thy^G4675 bed^G2895, and^G2532 walk^G4043^(G5720).

⁹ Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now that day was a Sabbath.

KJVAnd^G2532 immediately^G2112 the man^G444 was made^G1096^(G5633) whole^G5199, and^G2532 took up^G142^(G5656) his^G846 bed^G2895, and^G2532 walked^G4043^(G5707): and^G1161 on^G1722 the same^G1565 day^G2250 was^G2258^(G5713) the sabbath^G4521.

¹⁰ So the Jews said to him who was cured, “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat.”

KJVThe Jews^G2453 therefore^G3767 said^G3004^(G5707) unto him that was cured^G2323^(G5772), It is^G2076^(G5748) the sabbath day^G4521: it is^G1832 not^G3756 lawful^G1832^(G5748) for thee^G4671 to carry^G142^(G5658) thy bed^G2895.

¹¹ He answered them, “He who made me well said to me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’ ”

KJVHe answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846, He that made^G4160^(G5660) me^G3165 whole^G5199, the same^G1565 said^G2036^(G5627) unto me^G3427, Take up^G142^(G5657) thy^G4675 bed^G2895, and^G2532 walk^G4043^(G5720).

¹² Then they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your mat and walk’?”

KJVThen^G3767 asked they^G2065^(G5656) him^G846, What^G5101 man^G444 is^G2076^(G5748) that which^G3588 said^G2036^(G5631) unto thee^G4671, Take up^G142^(G5657) thy^G4675 bed^G2895, and^G2532 walk^G4043^(G5720)?

¹³ But he who was healed didn’t know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.

KJVAnd^G1161 he that was healed^G2390^(G5685) wist^G1492^(G5715) not^G3756 who^G5101 it was^G2076^(G5748): for^G1063 Jesus^G2424 had conveyed himself away^G1593^(G5656), a multitude^G3793 being^G5607^(G5752) in^G1722 that place^G5117.

¹⁴ Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you.”

KJVAfterward^G3326^G5023 Jesus^G2424 findeth^G2147^(G5719) him^G846 in^G1722 the temple^G2411, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Behold^G2396, thou art made^G1096^(G5754) whole^G5199: sin^G264^(G5720) no more^G3371, lest^G3363 a worse thing^G5501^G5100 come^G1096^(G5638) unto thee^G4671.

¹⁵ The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

KJVThe man^G444 departed^G565^(G5627), and^G2532 told^G312^(G5656) the Jews^G2453 that^G3754 it was^G2076^(G5748) Jesus^G2424, which^G3588 had made^G4160^(G5660) him^G846 whole^G5199.

¹⁶ For this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him, because he did these things on the Sabbath.

KJVAnd^G2532 therefore^G1223^G5124 did^G1377 the Jews^G2453 persecute^G1377^(G5707) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 sought^G2212^(G5707) to slay^G615^(G5658) him^G846, because^G3754 he had done^G4160^(G5707) these things^G5023 on^G1722 the sabbath day^G4521.

¹⁷ But Jesus answered them, “My Father is still working, so I am working, too.”

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846, My^G3450 Father^G3962 worketh^G2038^(G5736) hitherto^G2193^G737, and I^G2504 work^G2038^(G5736).

¹⁸ For this cause therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

KJVTherefore^G1223^G5124^G3767 the Jews^G2453 sought^G2212^(G5707) the more^G3123 to kill^G615^(G5658) him^G846, because^G3754 he^G3089 not^G3756 only^G3440 had broken^G3089^(G5707) the sabbath^G4521, but^G235 said^G3004^(G5707) also^G2532 that God^G2316 was his^G2398 Father^G3962, making^G4160^(G5723) himself^G1438 equal^G2470 with God^G2316.

¹⁹ Jesus therefore answered them, “Most certainly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.

KJVThen^G3767 answered^G611^(G5662) Jesus^G2424 and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Verily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, The Son^G5207 can^G1410^(G5736)^G3756 do^G4160^(G5721) nothing^G3762 of^G575 himself^G1438, but^G3362 what^G5100 he seeth^G991^(G5725) the Father^G3962 do^G4160^(G5723): for^G1063 what things soever^G3739^G302 he^G1565 doeth^G4160^(G5725), these^G5023 also^G2532 doeth^G4160^(G5719) the Son^G5207 likewise^G3668.

²⁰ For the Father has affection for the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

KJVFor^G1063 the Father^G3962 loveth^G5368^(G5719) the Son^G5207, and^G2532 sheweth^G1166^(G5719) him^G846 all things^G3956 that^G3739 himself^G846 doeth^G4160^(G5719): and^G2532 he will shew^G1166^(G5692) him^G846 greater^G3187 works^G2041 than^G3187 these^G5130, that^G2443 ye^G5210 may marvel^G2296^(G5725).

²¹ For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.

KJVFor^G1063 as^G5618 the Father^G3962 raiseth up^G1453^(G5719) the dead^G3498, and^G2532 quickeneth^G2227^(G5719) them; even^G2532 so^G3779 the Son^G5207 quickeneth^G2227^(G5719) whom^G3739 he will^G2309^(G5719).

²² For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

KJVFor^G1063^G3761 the Father^G3962 judgeth^G2919^(G5719) no man^G3762, but^G235 hath committed^G1325^(G5758) all^G3956 judgment^G2920 unto the Son^G5207:

²³ that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who doesn’t honor the Son doesn’t honor the Father who sent him.

KJVThat^G2443 all^G3956 men should honour^G5091^(G5725) the Son^G5207, even as^G2531 they honour^G5091^(G5719) the Father^G3962. He that honoureth^G5091^(G5723) not^G3361 the Son^G5207 honoureth^G5091^(G5719) not^G3756 the Father^G3962 which^G3588 hath sent^G3992^(G5660) him^G846.

²⁴ “Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

KJVVerily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 He that heareth^G191^(G5723) my^G3450 word^G3056, and^G2532 believeth^G4100^(G5723) on him that sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165, hath^G2192^(G5719) everlasting^G166 life^G2222, and^G2532 shall^G2064 not^G3756 come^G2064^(G5736) into^G1519 condemnation^G2920; but^G235 is passed^G3327^(G5758) from^G1537 death^G2288 unto^G1519 life^G2222.

²⁵ Most certainly I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God’s voice; and those who hear will live.

KJVVerily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 The hour^G5610 is coming^G2064^(G5736), and^G2532 now^G3568 is^G2076^(G5748), when^G3753 the dead^G3498 shall hear^G191^(G5695) the voice^G5456 of the Son^G5207 of God^G2316: and^G2532 they that hear^G191^(G5660) shall live^G2198^(G5695).

²⁶ For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.

KJVFor^G1063 as^G5618 the Father^G3962 hath^G2192^(G5719) life^G2222 in^G1722 himself^G1438; so^G2532^G3779 hath he given^G1325^(G5656) to the Son^G5207 to have^G2192^(G5721) life^G2222 in^G1722 himself^G1438;

²⁷ He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.

KJVAnd^G2532 hath given^G1325^(G5656) him^G846 authority^G1849 to execute^G4160^(G5721) judgment^G2920 also^G2532, because^G3754 he is^G2076^(G5748) the Son^G5207 of man^G444.

²⁸ Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice

KJVMarvel^G2296^(G5720) not^G3361 at this^G5124: for^G3754 the hour^G5610 is coming^G2064^(G5736), in^G1722 the which^G3739 all^G3956 that are in^G1722 the graves^G3419 shall hear^G191^(G5695) his^G846 voice^G5456,

²⁹ and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

KJVAnd^G2532 shall come forth^G1607^(G5695); they that have done^G4160^(G5660) good^G18, unto^G1519 the resurrection^G386 of life^G2222; and^G1161 they that have done^G4238^(G5660) evil^G5337, unto^G1519 the resurrection^G386 of damnation^G2920.

³⁰ I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is righteous, because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

KJVI^G1473 can^G1410^(G5736) of^G575 mine own self^G1683 do^G4160^(G5721) nothing^G3756^G3762: as^G2531 I hear^G191^(G5719), I judge^G2919^(G5719): and^G2532 my^G1699 judgment^G2920 is^G2076^(G5748) just^G1342; because^G3754 I seek^G2212^(G5719) not^G3756 mine own^G1699 will^G2307, but^G235 the will^G2307 of the Father^G3962 which hath sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165.

³¹ “If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.

KJVIf^G1437 I^G1473 bear witness^G3140^(G5725) of^G4012 myself^G1683, my^G3450 witness^G3141 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 true^G227.

³² It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.

KJVThere is^G2076^(G5748) another^G243 that beareth witness^G3140^(G5723) of^G4012 me^G1700; and^G2532 I know^G1492^(G5758) that^G3754 the witness^G3141 which^G3739 he witnesseth^G3140^(G5719) of^G4012 me^G1700 is^G2076^(G5748) true^G227.

³³ You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

KJVYe^G5210 sent^G649^(G5758) unto^G4314 John^G2491, and^G2532 he bare witness^G3140^(G5758) unto the truth^G225.

³⁴ But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.

KJVBut^G1161 I^G1473 receive^G2983^(G5719) not^G3756 testimony^G3141 from^G3844 man^G444: but^G235 these things^G5023 I say^G3004^(G5719), that^G2443 ye^G5210 might be saved^G4982^(G5686).

³⁵ He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

KJVHe^G1565 was^G2258^(G5713) a burning^G2545^(G5746) and^G2532 a shining^G5316^(G5723) light^G3088: and^G1161 ye^G5210 were willing^G2309^(G5656) for^G4314 a season^G5610 to rejoice^G21^(G5677) in^G1722 his^G846 light^G5457.

³⁶ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.

KJVBut^G1161 I^G1473 have^G2192^(G5719) greater^G3187 witness^G3141 than that of John^G2491: for^G1063 the works^G2041 which^G3739 the Father^G3962 hath given^G1325^(G5656) me^G3427 to^G2443 finish^G5048^(G5661)^G846, the same^G846 works^G2041 that^G3739 I^G1473 do^G4160^(G5719), bear witness^G3140^(G5719) of^G4012 me^G1700, that^G3754 the Father^G3962 hath sent^G649^(G5758) me^G3165.

³⁷ The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.

KJVAnd^G2532 the Father^G3962 himself^G846, which hath sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165, hath borne witness^G3140^(G5758) of^G4012 me^G1700. Ye have^G191 neither^G3777 heard^G191^(G5754) his^G846 voice^G5456 at any time^G4455, nor^G3777 seen^G3708^(G5758) his^G846 shape^G1491.

³⁸ You don’t have his word living in you, because you don’t believe him whom he sent.

KJVAnd^G2532 ye have^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 his^G846 word^G3056 abiding^G3306^(G5723) in^G1722 you^G5213: for^G3754 whom^G3739^G1565 he hath sent^G649^(G5656), him^G5129 ye^G5210 believe^G4100^(G5719) not^G3756.

³⁹ “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.

KJVSearch^G2045^(G5719) the scriptures^G1124; for^G3754 in^G1722 them^G846 ye^G5210 think^G1380^(G5719) ye have^G2192^(G5721) eternal^G166 life^G2222: and^G2532 they^G1565 are they^G1526^(G5748) which testify^G3140^(G5723) of^G4012 me^G1700.

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

KJVAnd^G2532 ye will^G2309^(G5719) not^G3756 come^G2064^(G5629) to^G4314 me^G3165, that^G2443 ye might have^G2192^(G5725) life^G2222.

⁴¹ I don’t receive glory from men.

KJVI receive^G2983^(G5719) not^G3756 honour^G1391 from^G3844 men^G444.

⁴² But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.

KJVBut^G235 I know^G1097^(G5758) you^G5209, that^G3754 ye have^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 the love^G26 of God^G2316 in^G1722 you^G1438.

⁴³ I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

KJVI am^G1473 come^G2064^(G5754) in^G1722 my^G3450 Father's^G3962 name^G3686, and^G2532 ye receive^G2983^(G5719) me^G3165 not^G3756: if^G1437 another^G243 shall come^G2064^(G5632) in^G1722 his own^G2398 name^G3686, him^G1565 ye will receive^G2983^(G5695).

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

KJVHow^G4459 can^G1410^(G5736) ye^G5210 believe^G4100^(G5658), which receive^G2983^(G5723) honour^G1391 one of another^G3844^G240, and^G2532 seek^G2212^(G5719) not^G3756 the honour^G1391 that cometh from^G3844 God^G2316 only^G3441?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

KJVDo^G1380 not^G3361 think^G1380^(G5720) that^G3754 I^G1473 will accuse^G2723^(G5692) you^G5216 to^G4314 the Father^G3962: there is^G2076^(G5748) one that accuseth^G2723^(G5723) you^G5216, even Moses^G3475, in^G1519 whom^G3739 ye^G5210 trust^G1679^(G5758).

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

KJVFor^G1063^G1487 had ye believed^G4100^(G5707) Moses^G3475, ye would have believed^G4100^(G5707)^G302 me^G1698: for^G1063 he^G1565 wrote^G1125^(G5656) of^G4012 me^G1700.

⁴⁷ But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1487 ye believe^G4100^(G5719) not^G3756 his^G1565 writings^G1121, how^G4459 shall ye believe^G4100^(G5692) my^G1699 words^G4487?
