12 When they were filled, c he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing d be lost.

13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.

14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that e prophet that should come into the world.

15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.

16 And ƒ when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company e Ne.9.25. come unto him, he saith unto Phi-| lip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.

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

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him.

9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes but what are they among so many?

10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would

20 But he saith unto them, It is 1, h be not afraid.

21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone:

23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias, nigh unto the i place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks :)

24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.

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

26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.

Christ declareth himself

which perisheth, but for that k meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him? hath God the Father sealed.

28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This m is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

30 They said therefore unto him, What sign n showest thou then, that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?

31 Our fatherso did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, p He gave them bread from Heaven to eat. 32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my q father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

33 For the bread of Godr is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. 35 And Jesus said unto them, I am

the bread of life: he s that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he tx that believeth on me shall never thirst.

36 But I said unto you, that ye u also have seen me, and believe not. 37 All v that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him w that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

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

39 And this is the Father's will y which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that z every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life and I will a raise him up at the last day. 41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from hea

to be the bread of life. 45 It is written d in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every mane therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. 47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, A He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

48 I am that bread of life.

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

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever and the bread that I will give is my flesh, m which I will give for the life n of the world.

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

53 Then Jesus said unto them. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except p' ye eat the flesh of the Sou of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

51 Whoso q eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

55 For my flesh is meat indeed, r and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eateths my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth m me, and I in him.

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

58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers v 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 Caper

naum.

60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, sand, 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 w 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

65 And he said, Therefore said z 1 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, a and walked no more with him.

67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?

68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the b words of eternal life.

69 And c we believe and are sure

that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.

70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a d devil?

71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet c a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent

me.

34 Yed shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.

35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed e among the 3 Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? 36 What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?

CHAPTER VUL 1 Christ delivereth a woman taken in adultery: 21 he preacheth himself the light of the world, and justifieth his doctrine.

JESUS went unto the mount of

Olives.

2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now a Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sun among you, b let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the inidst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And

condemn c thee: go, and sind no

more.

47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? 48 Have any of the rulers r or of the Pharisees believed on him? 49 But this people, who knoweth not the law, are cursed.

He answereth the Jews. and the truth shall make you free.c 33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never ind bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever e committeth sin is the servant of sin.

35 And the servant f abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

36 If g the Son therefore shall make you free, yeh shall be free indeed.

37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed: but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

38 Ii speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham k is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If l ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

40 But now you seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this m did not Abraham.

41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; wen have one Father, even God.

42 Jesus said unto them, Ifo God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but p he sent me.

43 Why do ye not understand my speech even because ye cannot hearg my word.

44 Yer are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode s not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

45 And because t I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

46 Which of you convinceth u me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and v hast a devil?

49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but 1 honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.

50 And Iw seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
