MODERN LITERAL VERSION

6:1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
{Mk 6:33-44 & Mt 14:13-21 & Lk 9:11-17 & Jn 6:2-14.}


6:2 And a large crowd followed him, because they were seeing the signs from him which he did upon those who were sick.

6:3 And Jesus went up into the mountain and sat there with his disciples.

6:4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

6:5 Therefore Jesus, having lifted up his eyes and having seen that a large crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, From where will we buy bread, that* these might eat?

6:6 And he said this, testing him; for* he himself knew what he was about to do.


6:7 Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii' worth of loaves is not enough for them, that* each of them might take a little bit.


6:8 One out of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,

6:9 There is one child here, who has five barley loaves and two little-fish, but what are these among so-many?


6:10 But Jesus said, Make* the people lean-back on the soil. Now much grass was in the place. So the men reclined, in number approximately five thousand.

6:11 Now Jesus took the loaves, and having given-thanks, he distributed it to the disciples and then to the disciples who had reclined; also likewise from the little-fish as many as they wished to eat.

6:12 And when they were filled, he says to his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which was leftover, that* nothing might perish.

6:13 Therefore they gathered together and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were leftover by those who had fed.


6:14 Therefore, when the people saw the sign which Jesus had done, they said, This truly is the prophet who is coming into the world.
{Mk 6:45-56 & Mt 14:22-36 & Jn 6:15-21.}


6:15 Therefore Jesus, having known that they were about to come and seize him, that* they might make* him king, departed by himself into the mountain alone.


6:16 And when it became evening, his disciples went down to the sea;

6:17 and they stepped into the ship and were going over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark and Jesus had not yet come to them.

6:18 And the sea was aroused by a great blowing wind.

6:19 Therefore, when they had rowed approximately twenty five or thirty furlongs, they view Jesus walking upon the sea and happening to be near the ship and they were afraid.

6:20 But he says to them, I am here. Do not be afraid.

6:21 Therefore they were willing to receive him into the ship and immediately the ship happened to be at the land where they were going.


6:22 On the next-day the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that no other small-boat was there, except the one which his disciples had stepped into, and that Jesus did not go with his disciples into the small-boat, but his disciples alone

6:23 (but other small-boats came from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given-thanks).

6:24 Therefore, when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves also stepped into the ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

6:25 And when they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when did you come* here?


6:26 Jesus answered them and said, Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you*, You* are seeking me, not because you* saw signs, but because you* ate from the loaves and were well fed.

6:27 Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give to you*; for* him, God, the Father has sealed.


6:28 Therefore they said to him, What should we do, in order that we may work the works of God?


6:29 Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, in order that you* might believe in him whom he has sent .


6:30 Therefore they said to him, Then* what are you doing for a sign, that* we may see it and may believe you? What are you working for us?

6:31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it has been written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. {Ex. 16:21, Num. 11:8}


6:32 Therefore Jesus said to them, Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you*, It was not Moses who had given you* the bread from heaven, but my Father who is giving you* the true bread from heaven.

6:33 For* the bread of God is what is coming down from heaven and is giving life to the world.


6:34 Therefore they said to him, Lord, give us this bread always.


6:35 But Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. He who is coming to me may never* hunger and he who believes in me may never* be thirsty at anytime.

6:36 But I said to you*, That you* have seen me and yet do not believe.

6:37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and him who is coming to me I may never* cast outside.

6:38 Because I have come down from heaven, not that* I should do my own will, but do the will of him who sent me.

6:39 And this is the will of my Father who sent me, that* of all that he has given me, I should not lose any out of it, but should raise* it up in the last day.

6:40 And this is the will of him who sent me, that* everyone who views the Son and believes in him, may have everlasting life, and I will raise* him up in the last day.


6:41 Therefore the Jews murmured concerning him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

6:42 And they said, Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, I have come down from heaven?


6:43 Therefore Jesus answered and said to them, Do not murmur among yourselves.

6:44 No one can come to me, if the Father who sent me does not attract him and I will raise* him up in the last day.

6:45 It has been written in the prophets, ‘And they will all be taught of God.' {Is. 54:13} Therefore, everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, is coming to me.

6:46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God, he has seen the Father.

6:47 Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you*, He who believes in me has everlasting life.

6:48 I am the bread of life.

6:49 Your* fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.

6:50 This is the bread which is coming down from heaven, that* anyone may eat from it and may not die.

6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats from this bread, he will live forever and also the bread which I will give is my flesh, which I will give on behalf of the life of the world.


6:52 Therefore the Jews quarreled with one another, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?


6:53 Therefore Jesus said to them, Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you*, If you* do not eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you* do not have life in yourselves.

6:54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life and I will raise* him up in the last day.

6:55 For* my flesh is truly food and my blood is truly drink.

6:56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in him.

6:57 As the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father; so he who eats me, he will also live because of me.

6:58 This is the bread which came down from heaven not like the manna your fathers ate and died; he who is eating this bread will live forever.

6:59 He said these things in the synagogue, (teaching in Capernaum).


6:60 Therefore many out of his disciples, when they heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?


6:61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured concerning this, said to them, Does this offend you*?

6:62 Then* what if you* view the Son of Man ascending where he was beforehand?

6:63 It is the spirit who is giving-life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you* are spirit, are life.

6:64 But there are some out of you* who do not believe. For* Jesus knew from the beginning who they are who do not believe and who is he who will give him up.

6:65 And he said, Because of this, I have said to you*, that no one is able to come to me, if it has not been given to him from my Father.


6:66 From that time, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

6:67 Therefore Jesus said to the twelve, You* will not also go away, will you*?


6:68 Therefore Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom will we go? You have the words of everlasting life.

6:69 And we have believed and know that you are the Christ the Son of the living God.


6:70 He answered them, Did I not choose you* the twelve and one out of you* is a slanderer?

6:71 Now he spoke of Judas Iscariot , Simon's son, being one out of the twelve, for* he was about to give him up to the Jews.
{Mk 7:1-23 & Mt 15:1-20 & Jn 7:1 Galilee, probably Capernaum Spring 29 AD.}
