John 6:42-50 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

42. And they said: "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? Then how can he say: 'For I descended from heaven?' "

43. And so Jesus responded and said to them: "Do not choose to murmur among yourselves.

44. No one is able to come to me, unless the Father, who has sent me, has drawn him. And I will raise him up on the last day.

45. It has been written in the Prophets: 'And they shall all be taught by God.' Everyone who has listened and learned from the Father comes to me.

46. Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God; this one has seen the Father.

47. Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me has eternal life.

48. I am the bread of life.

49. Your fathers ate manna in the desert, and they died.

50. This is the bread which descends from heaven, so that if anyone will eat from it, he may not die.
