1 After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee, {or} of Tiberias,
2 and a great crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought upon the sick.
3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there sat with his disciples:
4 but the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Jesus then, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves that these may eat?
6 But this he said trying him, for he knew what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little {portion}.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,
9 There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fishes; but this, what is it for so many?
10 {And} 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.
11 And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed {them} to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would.
12 And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.
13 They gathered {them} therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten.
14 The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.
15 Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make {him} king, departed again to the mountain himself alone.
16 But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea,
17 and having gone on board ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not come to them,
18 and the sea was agitated by a strong wind blowing.
19 Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.
20 But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid.
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.
22 On the morrow the crowd which stood on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little ship there except that into which his disciples had got, and that Jesus had not gone with his disciples into the ship, but {that} his disciples had gone away alone;
23 (but other little ships out of Tiberias came near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks;)
24 when therefore the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, *they* got into the ships, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
25 And having found him the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when art thou arrived here?
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me not because ye have seen signs, but because ye have eaten of the loaves and been filled.
27 Work not {for} the food which perishes, but {for} the food which abides unto life eternal, which the Son of man shall give to you; for him has the Father sealed, {even} God.
28 They said therefore to him, What should we do that we may work the works of God?
29 Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom *he* has sent.
30 They said therefore to him, What sign then doest thou that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.
32 Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, {It is} not Moses that has given you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
33 For the bread of God is he who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.
34 They said therefore to him, Lord, ever give to us this bread.
35 {And} Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst at any time.
36 But I have said to you, that ye have also seen me and do not believe.
37 All that the Father gives me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will not at all cast out.
38 For I am come down from heaven, not that I should do *my* will, but the will of him that has sent me.
39 And this is the will of him that has sent me, that of all that he has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up in the last day.
40 For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son, and believes on him, should have life eternal; and I will raise him up at the last day.
41 The Jews therefore murmured about him, because he said, I am the bread which has come down out of heaven.
42 And they said, Is not this Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then does *he* say, I am come down out of heaven?
43 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44 No one can come to me except the Father who has sent me draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every one that has heard from the Father {himself}, and has learned {of him}, comes to me;
46 not that any one has seen the Father, except he who is of God, he has seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say to you, He that believes {on me} has life eternal.
48 I am the bread of life.
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and died.
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.
51 I am the living bread which has come down out of heaven: if any one shall have eaten of this bread he shall live for ever; but the bread withal which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
52 The Jews therefore contended among themselves, saying, How can he give us this flesh to eat?
53 Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Unless ye shall have eaten the flesh of the Son of man, and drunk his blood, ye have no life in yourselves.
54 He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood has life eternal, and I will raise him up at the last day:
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?
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.
67 Jesus therefore said to the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast words of life eternal;
69 and we have believed and known that thou art the holy one of God.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you the twelve? and of you one is a devil.
71 Now he spoke of Judas {the son} of Simon, Iscariote, for he {it was who} should deliver him up, being one of the twelve.
1 Pärast seda läks Jeesus Tibeeria poolt Galilea mere teisele poole.
2 ja palju rahvast järgis Teda, sest nad nägid Tema imetähti, mida Ta tegi haigete juures.
3 Aga Jeesus läks üles mäele ja istus sinna Oma jüngritega.
4 Ja paasa, juutide püha, oli ligi.
5 Kui nüüd Jeesus Oma silmad üle tõstis ja nägi palju rahvast enese juure tulevat, ütles Ta Filippusele: „Kust me ostame leiba, et need saaksid süüa?"
6 Ent seda Ta ütles teda kiusates, sest Ta teadis küll, mida Ta tahtis teha.
7 Filippus vastas Talle: „Leibu kahesaja teenari eest ei jätku neile, et igaüks natukesegi võtaks!"
8 Ūks Tema jüngritest, Andreas, Siimon Peetruse vend, ütleb Talle:
9
10 Jeesus ütles: „Asetage inimesed maha istuma!" Ja seal paigas oli palju rohtu. Siis asetusid maha arvult umbes viis tuhat meest!
11 Jeesus võttis nüüd leivad, tänas ja, andis neile, kes maas istusid, samuti kai neist kalukesist, niipalju kui nad tahtsid.
12 Aga kui nende kõhud olid täis saanud, ütles Ta oma jüngritele: „Koguge ülejäänud palukesed kokku, et midagi ei läheks raisku!"
13 Siis nad kogusid kokku kaksteistkümmend korvitäit palukesi, mis oli üle jäänud viiest odraleivas nendelt, kes olid söönud.
14 Kui nüüd rahvas nägi tunnustähte, mille Jeesus oli teinud, ütlesid nad: „See on tõesti Prohvet, kes maailma pidi tulema!"
15 Siis Jeesus sai aru, et nad tahavad tulla ja Teda vägisi võtta ning teha kuningaks. Ja Ta läks jälle kõrvale mäe ainuüksi.16. Aga kui õhtu tuli, läksid Tema jüngrid mereranda
16
17 ja astusid paati ja tulid teisele poole merd Kapernauma. Aga pimedus oli juba käes ja Jeesus ei olnud veel tulnud nende juure.
18 Ja meri hakkas lainetama, sest suur tuul puhus.
19 Kui nad nüüd olid sõudnud umbes kakskümmend viis või kolmkümmend vagu maad, nägid nad Jeesust merel kõndivat ja paadi lähedale jõudvat, ja nad lõid kartma.
20 Aga Tema ütles neile: „Mina olen see, ärge kartke!"
21 Nüüd nad tahtsid Teda paati võtta, ja varsti sai paat sinna randa, kuhu nad sõitsid.
22 Järgmisel päeval nägi rahvas, kes viibis mere teisel rannal, et teist lootsikut ei olnud seal, vaid oli ainult üks, ja et Jeesus ei olnud astunud ühes Oma jüngritega paati, vaid et ainult Tema jüngrid olid ära läinud.
23 Oli aga tulnud veel lootsikuid Tibeeriast selle paiga lähedale, kus nad olid leiba söönud, kui Issand oli Jumalat tänanud.
24 Kui nüüd rahvas nägi, et seal ei olnud Jeesust ega Tema jüngreid, läksid nad lootsikusse ja tulid Kapernauma ning otsisid Jeesust.
25 Ja kui nad Ta leidsid mere teiselt rannalt, ütlesid nad Talle: „Rabi, millal Sa siia said?"26. Jeesus vastas neile ning ütles: „Tõesti, tõesti Ma ütlen teile, et te ei otsi Mind, sellepärast et te nägite tunnustähti, vaid et te sõite leiba ja teie kõhud said täis!
26
27 Ärge hankige rooga, mis hävib, vaid rooga, mis jääb igaveseks eluks, mida Inimese Poeg tahab teile anda, sest Teda on Jumal Isa pitseriga kinnitanud!"
28 Siis ütlesid nad Temale: „Mis me peame tegema, et võiksime teha Jumala tegusid?"
29 Jeesus vastas ning ütles neile: „See on Jumala tegu, et te usute Temasse, Kelle Ta on läkitanud!"
30 Siis nad ütlesid Temale: „Mis tunnustähe sa Siis teed, et me näeksime ja usuksime Sind? Mis Sa teed?
31 Meie esiisad sõid kõrves mannat, nagu on kirjutatud: Ta andis neile süüa leiba taevast!"
32 Siis Jeesus ütles neile: „Tõesti, tõesti Ma ütlen teile! Mooses ei annud teile leiba taevast, aga Minu Isa annab teile tõelise leiva taevast!
33 Sest Jumala leib on see, kes tuleb taevast alla ja annab maailmale elu!"
34 Siis nad ütlesid Talle: „Issand, anna meile ikka seda leiba!"
35
36 Aga Mina olen teile ütelnud, et te olete Mind näinud ega usu mitte!
37 Kõik, mis Isa Minule annab, tuleb Minu juure, ja kes Minu juure tuleb, seda Ma ei lükka välja.
38 Sest Ma olen taevast alla tulnud mitte Oma tahtmist tegema, vaid Selle tahtmist, Kes Mind on läkitänud.
39 Aga see on Selle tahtmine, Kes Mind on läkitanud, et Ma ühtki ei kaota sellest kõigest, mis Ta Minule on annud, vaid et Ma selle üles äratan viimsel päeval.
40 Sest see on Mu Isa tahtmine, et igaühel, kes Poega näeb ja Temasse usub, on igavene elu, ja Ma äratan tema üles viimsel päeval!"41. Siis nurisesid juudid Tema üle, et Ta oli ütelnud: „Mina olen leib, mis taevast on alla tulnud!"
41
42 Ja nad ütlesid: „Eks see ole Jeesus, Joosepi poeg, Kelle isa ja Ema me tunneme? Kuidas Ta siis ütleb: Ma olen tulnud taevast?"
43 Jeesus vastas ning ütles neile: „Ärge nurisege isekeskis!
44 Ūkski ei või tulla Minu juure, kui teda ei tõmba Isa, kes Mind on läkitanud; ja Mina äratan tema üles viimsel päeval.
45 Prohvetite raamatuis on kirjutatud: Nad kõik peavad olema Jumala poolt õpetatud! Igaüks, kes on Isalt kuulnud ja on õppinud, tuleb Minu juure.
46 Mitte, et keegi teine oleks näinud Isa kui See, Kes on Jumala juurest; See on näinud Isa.
47 Tõesti, tõesti Ma ütlen teile: Kes usub, sellel on igavene elu!
48 Mina olen Eluleib.
49 Teie esiisad sõid kõrves mannat ja surid.
50 See on leib, mis taevast alla tuleb, et inimene seda sööks ega sureks.
51 Mina olen elav leib, mis taevast on alla tulnud. Kui keegi sööb seda leiba, siis ta elab igavesti; ja leib, mille Mina annan, on Minu Liha, mille annan maailma elu eest !„
52 Siis riidlesid juudid isekeskis, üteldes: „Kuidas see võib meile anda Oma Liha süüa?"
53 Siis Jeesus ütles neile: „Tõesti, tõesti Ma ütlen teile, et kui te ei söö Inimese Poja Liha ega joo Tema Verd, siis ei ole elu teis enestes!
54 Kes sööb Minu Liha ja joob Minu Verd, sel on igavene elu; ja Mina äratan tema üles viimsel päeval.
55 Sest Mu Liha on tõeline roog ja Mu Veri on tõeline jook.
56 Kes sööb Minu Liha ja joob Minu Verd, jääb Minusse ja Mina temasse.
57 Nagu elav Isa Mind on läkitanud ja Mina elan Isa läbi, nõnda ka see, kes Mind sööb, elab Minu läbi.
58 See on leib, mis taevast on alla tulnud; see ei ole niisugune, mida sõid teie vanemad ja surid. Kes seda leiba sööb, elab igavesti!"
59 Seda Ta ütles kogudusekojas, õpetades Kapernaumas.
60 Siis paljud Tema jüngrid, kui nad seda kuulsid, ütlesid: „See kõne on kõva, kes võib seda kuulda?"
61 Aga et Jeesus Iseenesest teadis, et Tema jüngrid selle üle nurisesid, ütles Ta neile: „Kas see teid pahandab?
62 Aga mis on siis, kui te näete Inimese Poja üles minevat sinna, kus Ta enne oli?
63 Vaim on, kes teeb elavaks; lihast ei ole kasu millekski; sõnad, mis mina teile olen rääkinud, on vaim ja on elu.
64 Aga teie seas on mõned, kes ei usu!" Sest Jeesus teadis algusest peale, kes need olid, kes ei uskunud, ja kes see on, kes Tema ära annab.
65 Ja Ta ütles: „Sellepärast Ma olen teile ütelnud, et ükski ei või tulla Minu juure, kui temale seda ei ole annud Minu Isa!"
66 Sellest ajast läksid paljud Tema jüngrid ära Ta järelt ega kõndinud enam Temaga.
67 Siis Jeesus ütles neile kaheteistkümnele: „Kas ka teie tahate ära minna?"
68 Siimon Peetrus vastas Temale: „Issand, kelle juure me läheme? Sinul on igavese elu sõnad,
69 ja me oleme uskunud ja tunnud, et Sina oled Jumala Püha!"
70 Jeesus kostis neile: „Eks ole Mina teid kaksteistkümmend ära valinud, ja üks teie seast on kurat?"
71 Aga Ta rääkis Juudast, Iskarioti Siimona pojast, sest see pidi Tema ära andma ja oli üks neist kaheteistkümnest.
