(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
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.
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?

6:43Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

6:44No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

6:45It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

6:46Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

6:47Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

6:48I am that bread of life.

6:49Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

6:50This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

6:51I 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, which I will give for the life of the world.

6:52The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

6:53Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

6:54Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

6:55For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

6:56He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

6:57As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

6:58This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

6:59These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
