1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is [the sea] of Tiberias.
1 PASADAS estas cosas, fuése Jesús de la otra parte de la mar de Galilea, [que es] de Tiberias.
2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
2 Y seguíale grande multitud, porque veían sus señales que hacía en los enfermos.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
3 Y subió Jesús á un monte, y se sentó allí con sus discípulos.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
4 Y estaba cerca la Pascua, la fiesta de los Judíos.
5 ¶ When Jesus then lifted up [his] eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
5 Y como alzó Jesús los ojos, y vió que había venido á él grande multitud, dice á Felipe: ¿De dónde compraremos pan para que coman éstos?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
6 Mas esto decía para probarle; porque él sabía lo que había de hacer.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
7 Respondióle Felipe: Doscientos denarios de pan no les bastarán, para que cada uno de ellos tome un poco.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
8 Dícele uno de sus discípulos, Andrés, hermano de Simón Pedro:
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
9 Un muchacho está aquí que tiene cinco panes de cebada y dos pececillos; ¿mas qué es esto entre tantos?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
10 Entonces Jesús dijo: Haced recostar la gente. Y había mucha hierba en aquel lugar: y recostáronse como número de cinco mil varones.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
11 Y tomó Jesús aquellos panes, y habiendo dado gracias, repartió á los discípulos, y los discípulos á los que estaban recostados: asimismo de los peces, cuanto querían.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
12 Y como fueron saciados, dijo á sus discípulos: Recoged los pedazos que han quedado, porque no se pierda nada.
13 Therefore they gathered [them] together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
13 Cogieron pues, é hinchieron doce cestas de pedazos de los cinco panes de cebada, que sobraron á los que habían comido.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
14 Aquellos hombres entonces, como vieron la señal que Jesús había hecho, decían: Este verdaderamente es el profeta que había de venir al mundo.
15 ¶ When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
15 Y entendiendo Jesús que habían de venir para arrebatarle, y hacerle rey, volvió á retirarse al monte, él solo.
16 And when even was [now] come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
16 Y como se hizo tarde, descendieron sus discípulos á la mar;
17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
17 Y entrando en un barco, venían de la otra parte de la mar hacia Capernaum. Y era ya oscuro, y Jesús no había venido á ellos.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
18 Y levantábase la mar con un gran viento que soplaba.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
19 Y como hubieron navegado como veinticinco ó treinta estadios, ven á Jesús que andaba sobre la mar, y se acercaba al barco: y tuvieron miedo.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
20 Mas él les dijo: Yo soy; no tengáis miedo.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
21 Ellos entonces gustaron recibirle en el barco: y luego el barco llegó á la tierra donde iban.
22 ¶ The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but [that] his disciples were gone away alone;
22 El día siguiente, la gente que estaba de la otra parte de la mar, como vió que no había allí otra navecilla sino una, y que Jesús no había entrado con sus discípulos en ella, sino que sus discípulos se habían ido solos;
23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
23 Y que otras navecillas habían arribado de Tiberias junto al lugar donde habían comido el pan después de haber el Señor dado gracias;
24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
24 Como vió pues la gente que Jesús no estaba allí, ni sus discípulos, entraron ellos en las navecillas, y vinieron á Capernaum buscando á Jesús.
25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
25 Y hallándole de la otra parte de la mar, dijéronle: Rabbí, ¿cuándo llegaste acá?
26 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.
26 Respondióles Jesús, y dijo: De cierto, de cierto os digo, que me buscáis, no porque habéis visto las señales, sino porque comisteis el pan y os hartasteis.
27 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.
27 Trabajad no por la comida que perece, mas por la comida que á vida eterna permanece, la cual el Hijo del hombre os dará: porque á éste señaló el Padre, [que es] Dios.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
28 Y dijéronle: ¿Qué haremos para que obremos las obras de Dios?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
29 Respondió Jesús, y díjoles: Esta es la obra de Dios, que creáis en el que él ha enviado.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
30 Dijéronle entonces: ¿Qué señal pues haces tú, para que veamos, y te creamos? ¿Qué obras?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
31 Nuestros padres comieron el maná en el desierto, como está escrito: Pan del cielo les dió á comer.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
32 Y Jesús les dijo: De cierto, de cierto os digo: No os dió Moisés pan del cielo; mas mi Padre os da el verdadero pan del cielo.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
33 Porque el pan de Dios es aquel que descendió del cielo y da vida al mundo.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
34 Y dijéronle: Señor, danos siempre este pan.
35 And 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.
35 Y Jesús les dijo: Yo soy el pan de vida: el que á mí viene, nunca tendrá hambre; y el que en mí cree, no tendrá sed jamás.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
36 Mas os he dicho, que aunque me habéis visto, no creéis.
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
37 Todo lo que el Padre me da, vendrá á mí; y al que á mí viene, no [le] hecho fuera.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
38 Porque he descendido del cielo, no para hacer mi voluntad, mas la voluntad del que me envió.
39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
39 Y esta es la voluntad del que me envió, del Padre: Que todo lo que me diere, no pierda de ello, sino que lo resucite en el día postrero.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
40 Y esta es la voluntad del que me ha enviado: Que todo aquel que ve al Hijo, y cree en él, tenga vida eterna: y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.
41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
41 Murmuraban entonces de él los Judíos, porque había dicho: Yo soy el pan que descendí del cielo.
42 And 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?
42 Y decían: ¿No es éste Jesús, el hijo de José, cuyo padre y madre nosotros conocemos? ¿cómo, pues, dice éste: Del cielo he descendido?
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
43 Y Jesús respondió, y díjoles: No murmuréis entre vosotros.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
44 Ninguno puede venir á mí, si el Padre que me envió no le trajere; y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.
45 It 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.
45 Escrito está en los profetas: Y serán todos enseñados de Dios. Así que, todo aquel que oyó del Padre, y aprendió, viene á mí.
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
46 No que alguno haya visto al Padre, sino aquel que vino de Dios, éste ha visto al Padre.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
47 De cierto, de cierto os digo: El que cree en mí, tiene vida eterna.
48 I am that bread of life.
48 Yo soy el pan de vida.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
49 Vuestros padres comieron el maná en el desierto, y son muertos.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
50 Este es el pan que desciende del cielo, para que el que de él comiere, no muera.
51 I 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.
51 Yo soy el pan vivo que he descendido del cielo: si alguno comiere de este pan, vivirá para siempre; y el pan que yo daré es mi carne, la cual yo daré por la vida del mundo.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?
52 Entonces los Judíos contendían entre sí, diciendo: ¿Cómo puede éste darnos su carne á comer?
53 Then 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.
53 Y Jesús les dijo: De cierto, de cierto os digo: Si no comiereis la carne del Hijo del hombre, y bebiereis su sangre, no tendréis vida en vosotros.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
54 El que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, tiene vida eterna: y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
55 Porque mi carne es verdadera comida, y mi sangre es verdadera bebida.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
56 El que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, en mí permanece, y yo en él.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
57 Como me envió el Padre viviente, y yo vivo por el Padre, asimismo el que me come, él también vivirá por mí.
58 This 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.
58 Este es el pan que descendió del cielo: no como vuestros padres comieron el maná, y son muertos: el que come de este pan, vivirá eternamente.
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
59 Estas cosas dijo en la sinagoga, enseñando en Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard [this], said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
60 Y muchos de sus discípulos oyéndo[lo], dijeron: Dura es esta palabra: ¿quién la puede oir?
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
61 Y sabiendo Jesús en sí mismo que sus discípulos murmuraban de esto, díjoles: ¿Esto os escandaliza?
62 [What] and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
62 ¿Pues [qué], si viereis al Hijo del hombre que sube donde estaba primero?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.
63 El espíritu es el que da vida; la carne nada aprovecha: las palabras que yo os he hablado, son espíritu, y son vida.
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
64 Mas hay algunos de vosotros que no creen. Porque Jesús desde el principio sabía quiénes eran los que no creían, y quién le había de entregar.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
65 Y dijo: Por eso os he dicho que ninguno puede venir á mí, si no le fuere dado del Padre.
66 ¶ From that [time] many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
66 Desde esto, muchos de sus discípulos volvieron atrás, y ya no andaban con él.
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
67 Dijo entonces Jesús á los doce: ¿Queréis vosotros iros también?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
68 Y respondióle Simón Pedro: Señor, ¿á quién iremos? tú tienes palabras de vida eterna.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
69 Y nosotros creemos y conocemos que tú eres el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios viviente.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
70 Jesús le respondió: ¿No he escogido yo á vosotros doce, y uno de vosotros es diablo?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
71 Y hablaba de Judas Iscariote, [hijo] de Simón, porque éste era el que le había de entregar, el cual era uno de los doce.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
It was a great miracle that was wrought, dearly beloved, for five thousand men to be filled with five loaves and two fishes, and the remnants of the fragments to fill twelve baskets. A great miracle: but we shall not wonder much at what was done, if we give heed to Him That did it.

The miracles performed by our Lord Jesus Christ are indeed divine works, and incite the human mind to rise to the apprehension of God from the things that are seen.

Beloved, let us not contend with violent men, but learn when the doing so brings no hurt to our virtue to give place to their evil counsels; for so all their hardihood is checked.

Again, withdrawing from thence to the other side of the sea of Tiberias, He there seeing a great crowd had followed Him, fed all that multitude with five loaves of bread, and twelve baskets of fragments remained over and above.
… speaking mystically of eating His flesh, when those who did not understand Him were offended and went away, saying, "This is an hard saying, who can hear it?" He answered to the rest who remained, "It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing." The Principle, therefore, having assumed a human soul and flesh, cleanses the soul and flesh …
