⁵¹I am the liuing bread, which came downe from heauen. If any man eate of this bread, he shall liue for euer: and the bread that I will giue, is my flesh, which I will giue for the life of the world.

²⁴And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

²⁵After the same manner also hee tooke the cup when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new Testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me.

¹⁶The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

¹⁷For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.

¹⁶The cup of blessing which wee blesse, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we breake, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

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

⁴¹The Iewes then murmured at him, because hee said, I am the bread which came downe from heauen.

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

³⁴Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

³⁵And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

³⁴Then said they vnto him, Lord, euermore giue vs this bread.

³⁵And Iesus said vnto them, I am the bread of life: hee that commeth to me, shall neuer hunger: and he that beleeueth on me, shall neuer thirst.

¹⁷But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

¹⁸And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

¹⁹So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

¹⁷But with whom was he grieued fourty yeeres? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wildernesse?

¹⁸And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that beleeued not?

¹⁹So we see that they could not enter in, because of vnbeleefe.

⁵I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

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

^31*Our fathers did eate Manna in the desert, as it is written, ^*He gaue them bread from heauen to eate.

⁵⁸This is that bread which came downe from heauen: not as your fathers did eate Manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread, shall liue for euer.

⁶⁵For the Lord had said of them, They shall surely die in the wilderness. And there was not left a man of them, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

⁶⁵For the LORD had said of them, They ^*shall surely die in the wildernesse: and there was not left a man of them, saue Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun.

⁵Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?

⁵Your fathers, where are they? and the Prophets, doe they liue for euer?

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

³³For the bread of God is hee which commeth downe from heauen, and giueth life vnto the world.

¹⁰And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

¹⁰And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sinne: but the spirit is life, because of righteousnesse.

⁵¹Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

⁵¹Uerely, verely I say vnto you, If a man keepe my saying, hee shall neuer see death.

¹³And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

¹³And no man hath ascended vp to heauen, but hee that came downe from heauen, euen the Sonne of man which is in heauen.

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

⁴²And they said, ^*Is not this Iesus the sonne of Ioseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that hee sayth, I came downe from heauen?

²⁵Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

²⁶And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

²⁵Iesus said vnto her, I am the resurrection, and the ^*life: hee that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue.

²⁶And whosoeuer liueth, and beleeueth in mee, shall neuer die. Beleeuest thou this?

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

³³For the bread of God is hee which commeth downe from heauen, and giueth life vnto the world.

¹⁹¶ And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

¹⁹¶ ^*And hee tooke bread, and gaue thankes, and brake it, and gaue vnto them, saying, This is my body which is giuen for you, this doe in remembrance of me.

¹⁴Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

¹⁴Who gaue himselfe for vs, that he might redeeme vs from all iniquitie, and purifie vnto himselfe a peculiar people, zealous of good workes.

⁵Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

⁶In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

⁷Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

⁸Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

⁹Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

¹⁰By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

¹¹And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:

¹²But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

⁵Wherefore when hee commeth into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou ^‖prepared mee:

⁶In burnt offerings, and sacrifices for sinne thou hast had no pleasure:

⁷Then said I, Loe, I come. (In the volume of the booke it is written of me) to doe thy will, O God.

⁸Aboue when hee said, Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt offerings, and offering for sinne thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein, which are offered by the Law:

¹⁰By the which will wee are sanctified, through the offering of the body of Iesus Christ once for all.

¹¹And euery Priest standeth dayly ministring and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices which can neuer take away sinnes.

¹²But this man after he had offered one sacrifice for sinnes for euer, sate downe on the right hand of God,

¹³And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

¹³And no man hath ascended vp to heauen, but hee that came downe from heauen, euen the Sonne of man which is in heauen.

²¹For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

²¹For he hath made him to be sinne for vs, who knewe no sinne, that wee might bee made the righteousnesse of God in him.

²⁸Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

²⁸Euen as the ^*Sonne of man came not to be ministred vnto, but minister, and to giue his life a ransome for many.

²⁰By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

²⁰By a new and liuing way which hee hath ^‖consecrated for vs, through the vaile, that is to say, His flesh:

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.

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

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

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

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

⁵²The Iewes therefore stroue amongst themselues, saying, How can this man giue vs his flesh to eate?

⁵³Then Iesus sayd vnto them, Uerely, verely I say vnto you, Except yee eate the flesh of the sonne of man, and drinke his blood, yee haue no life in you.

⁵⁴Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternall life, and I will raise him vp at the last day.

⁵⁵For my flesh is meate indeed, and my blood is drinke indeed.

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

⁵⁷As the liuing Father hath sent me, and I liue by the Father: so, he that eateth me, euen he shall liue by me.

⁵⁸This is that bread which came downe from heauen: not as your fathers did eate Manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread, shall liue for euer.

²And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

²And he is the propitiation for our sinnes: and not for ours onely, but also for the sinnes of the whole world.

¹⁰Herein is loue, not that wee loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his Sonne to be y ^e propitiation for our sins.

¹⁴And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

¹⁴And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent the Sonne to be the Sauiour of the world.
