WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 μετα ταυτα απηλθεν ο ιησουσ περαν τησ θαλασσησ τησ γαλιλαιασ τησ τιβεριαδοσ
1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is also called the Sea of Tiberias.
2 και ηκολουθει αυτω οχλοσ πολυσ οτι εωρων αυτου τα σημεια α εποιει επι των ασθενουντων
2 A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick.
3 ανηλθεν δε εισ το οροσ ο ιησουσ και εκει εκαθητο μετα των μαθητων αυτου
3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples.
4 ην δε εγγυσ το πασχα η εορτη των ιουδαιων
4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
5 επαρασ ουν ο ιησουσ τουσ οφθαλμουσ και θεασαμενοσ οτι πολυσ οχλοσ ερχεται προσ αυτον λεγει προσ τον φιλιππον ποθεν αγορασομεν αρτουσ ινα φαγωσιν ουτοι
5 Jesus therefore, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great multitude was coming to him, said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?”
6 τουτο δε ελεγεν πειραζων αυτον αυτοσ γαρ ηδει τι εμελλεν ποιειν
6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
7 απεκριθη αυτω φιλιπποσ διακοσιων δηναριων αρτοι ουκ αρκουσιν αυτοισ ινα εκαστοσ αυτων βραχυ τι λαβη
7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may receive a little.”
8 λεγει αυτω εισ εκ των μαθητων αυτου ανδρεασ ο αδελφοσ σιμωνοσ πετρου
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,
9 εστιν παιδαριον εν ωδε ο εχει πεντε αρτουσ κριθινουσ και δυο οψαρια αλλα ταυτα τι εστιν εισ τοσουτουσ
9 “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?”
10 ειπεν δε ο ιησουσ ποιησατε τουσ ανθρωπουσ αναπεσειν ην δε χορτοσ πολυσ εν τω τοπω ανεπεσον ουν οι ανδρεσ τον αριθμον ωσει πεντακισχιλιοι
10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 ελαβεν δε τουσ αρτουσ ο ιησουσ και ευχαριστησασ διεδωκεν τοισ μαθηταισ οι δε μαθηται τοισ ανακειμενοισ ομοιωσ και εκ των οψαριων οσον ηθελον
11 Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down, likewise also of the fish as much as they desired.
12 ωσ δε ενεπλησθησαν λεγει τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου συναγαγετε τα περισσευσαντα κλασματα ινα μη τι αποληται
12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”
13 συνηγαγον ουν και εγεμισαν δωδεκα κοφινουσ κλασματων εκ των πεντε αρτων των κριθινων α επερισσευσεν τοισ βεβρωκοσιν
13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.
14 οι ουν ανθρωποι ιδοντεσ ο εποιησεν σημειον ο ιησουσ ελεγον οτι ουτοσ εστιν αληθωσ ο προφητησ ο ερχομενοσ εισ τον κοσμον
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”
15 ιησουσ ουν γνουσ οτι μελλουσιν ερχεσθαι και αρπαζειν αυτον ινα ποιησωσιν αυτον βασιλεα ανεχωρησεν εισ το οροσ αυτοσ μονοσ
15 Jesus therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
16 ωσ δε οψια εγενετο κατεβησαν οι μαθηται αυτου επι την θαλασσαν
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.
17 και εμβαντεσ εισ το πλοιον ηρχοντο περαν τησ θαλασσησ εισ καπερναουμ και σκοτια ηδη εγεγονει και ουκ εληλυθει προσ αυτουσ ο ιησουσ
17 They entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.
18 η τε θαλασσα ανεμου μεγαλου πνεοντοσ διηγειρετο
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
19 εληλακοτεσ ουν ωσ σταδιουσ εικοσι πεντε η τριακοντα θεωρουσιν τον ιησουν περιπατουντα επι τησ θαλασσησ και εγγυσ του πλοιου γινομενον και εφοβηθησαν
19 When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
20 ο δε λεγει αυτοισ εγω ειμι μη φοβεισθε
20 But he said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
21 ηθελον ουν λαβειν αυτον εισ το πλοιον και ευθεωσ το πλοιον εγενετο επι τησ γησ εισ ην υπηγον
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
22 τη επαυριον ο οχλοσ ο εστηκωσ περαν τησ θαλασσησ ιδων οτι πλοιαριον αλλο ουκ ην εκει ει μη εν εκεινο εισ ο ενεβησαν οι μαθηται αυτου και οτι ου συνεισηλθεν τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου ο ιησουσ εισ το πλοιαριον αλλα μονοι οι μαθηται αυτου απηλθον
22 On the next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except the one in which his disciples had embarked, and that Jesus hadn’t entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.
23 αλλα δε ηλθεν πλοιαρια εκ τιβεριαδοσ εγγυσ του τοπου οπου εφαγον τον αρτον ευχαριστησαντοσ του κυριου
23 However, boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24 οτε ουν ειδεν ο οχλοσ οτι ιησουσ ουκ εστιν εκει ουδε οι μαθηται αυτου ενεβησαν αυτοι εισ τα πλοια και ηλθον εισ καπερναουμ ζητουντεσ τον ιησουν
24 When the multitude therefore saw that Jesus wasn’t there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
25 και ευροντεσ αυτον περαν τησ θαλασσησ ειπον αυτω ραββι ποτε ωδε γεγονασ
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”
26 απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ και ειπεν αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ζητειτε με ουχ οτι ειδετε σημεια αλλ οτι εφαγετε εκ των αρτων και εχορτασθητε
26 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.
27 εργαζεσθε μη την βρωσιν την απολλυμενην αλλα την βρωσιν την μενουσαν εισ ζωην αιωνιον ην ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου υμιν δωσει τουτον γαρ ο πατηρ εσφραγισεν ο θεοσ
27 Don’t work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him.”
28 ειπον ουν προσ αυτον τι ποιωμεν ινα εργαζωμεθα τα εργα του θεου
28 They said therefore to him, “What must we do, that we may work the works of God?”
29 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτοισ τουτο εστιν το εργον του θεου ινα πιστευσητε εισ ον απεστειλεν εκεινοσ
29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
30 ειπον ουν αυτω τι ουν ποιεισ συ σημειον ινα ιδωμεν και πιστευσωμεν σοι τι εργαζη
30 They said therefore to him, “What then do you do for a sign, that we may see and believe you? What work do you do?
31 οι πατερεσ ημων το μαννα εφαγον εν τη ερημω καθωσ εστιν γεγραμμενον αρτον εκ του ουρανου εδωκεν αυτοισ φαγειν
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”
32 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ου μωσησ δεδωκεν υμιν τον αρτον εκ του ουρανου αλλ ο πατηρ μου διδωσιν υμιν τον αρτον εκ του ουρανου τον αληθινον
32 Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, it wasn’t Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
33 ο γαρ αρτοσ του θεου εστιν ο καταβαινων εκ του ουρανου και ζωην διδουσ τω κοσμω
33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 ειπον ουν προσ αυτον κυριε παντοτε δοσ ημιν τον αρτον τουτον
34 They said therefore to him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
35 ειπεν δε αυτοισ ο ιησουσ εγω ειμι ο αρτοσ τησ ζωησ ο ερχομενοσ προσ με ου μη πειναση και ο πιστευων εισ εμε ου μη διψηση πωποτε
35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
36 αλλ ειπον υμιν οτι και εωρακατε με και ου πιστευετε
36 But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you don’t believe.
37 παν ο διδωσιν μοι ο πατηρ προσ εμε ηξει και τον ερχομενον προσ με ου μη εκβαλω εξω
37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.
38 οτι καταβεβηκα εκ του ουρανου ουχ ινα ποιω το θελημα το εμον αλλα το θελημα του πεμψαντοσ με
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
39 τουτο δε εστιν το θελημα του πεμψαντοσ με πατροσ ινα παν ο δεδωκεν μοι μη απολεσω εξ αυτου αλλα αναστησω αυτο τη εσχατη ημερα
39 This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.
40 τουτο δε εστιν το θελημα του πεμψαντοσ με ινα πασ ο θεωρων τον υιον και πιστευων εισ αυτον εχη ζωην αιωνιον και αναστησω αυτον εγω τη εσχατη ημερα
40 This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
41 εγογγυζον ουν οι ιουδαιοι περι αυτου οτι ειπεν εγω ειμι ο αρτοσ ο καταβασ εκ του ουρανου
41 The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, “I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”
42 και ελεγον ουχ ουτοσ εστιν ιησουσ ο υιοσ ιωσηφ ου ημεισ οιδαμεν τον πατερα και την μητερα πωσ ουν λεγει ουτοσ οτι εκ του ουρανου καταβεβηκα
42 They said, “Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say, ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”
43 απεκριθη ουν ο ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτοισ μη γογγυζετε μετ αλληλων
43 Therefore Jesus answered them, “Don’t murmur among yourselves.
44 ουδεισ δυναται ελθειν προσ με εαν μη ο πατηρ ο πεμψασ με ελκυση αυτον και εγω αναστησω αυτον εν τη εσχατη ημερα
44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up in the last day.
45 εστιν γεγραμμενον εν τοισ προφηταισ και εσονται παντεσ διδακτοι θεου πασ ουν ο ακουων παρα του πατροσ και μαθων ερχεται προσ με
45 It is written in the prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, comes to me.
46 ουχ οτι τον πατερα τισ εωρακεν ει μη ο ων παρα του θεου ουτοσ εωρακεν τον πατερα
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.
47 αμην αμην λεγω υμιν ο πιστευων εισ εμε εχει ζωην αιωνιον
47 Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.
48 εγω ειμι ο αρτοσ τησ ζωησ
48 I am the bread of life.
49 οι πατερεσ υμων εφαγον το μαννα εν τη ερημω και απεθανον
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.
50 ουτοσ εστιν ο αρτοσ ο εκ του ουρανου καταβαινων ινα τισ εξ αυτου φαγη και μη αποθανη
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
51 εγω ειμι ο αρτοσ ο ζων ο εκ του ουρανου καταβασ εαν τισ φαγη εκ τουτου του αρτου ζησεται εισ τον αιωνα και ο αρτοσ δε ον εγω δωσω η σαρξ μου εστιν ην εγω δωσω υπερ τησ του κοσμου ζωησ
51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”
52 εμαχοντο ουν προσ αλληλουσ οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντεσ πωσ δυναται ουτοσ ημιν δουναι την σαρκα φαγειν
52 The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
53 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν εαν μη φαγητε την σαρκα του υιου του ανθρωπου και πιητε αυτου το αιμα ουκ εχετε ζωην εν εαυτοισ
53 Jesus therefore said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don’t have life in yourselves.
54 ο τρωγων μου την σαρκα και πινων μου το αιμα εχει ζωην αιωνιον και εγω αναστησω αυτον τη εσχατη ημερα
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 η γαρ σαρξ μου αληθωσ εστιν βρωσισ και το αιμα μου αληθωσ εστιν ποσισ
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
56 ο τρωγων μου την σαρκα και πινων μου το αιμα εν εμοι μενει καγω εν αυτω
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
57 καθωσ απεστειλεν με ο ζων πατηρ καγω ζω δια τον πατερα και ο τρωγων με κακεινοσ ζησεται δι εμε
57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live because of me.
58 ουτοσ εστιν ο αρτοσ ο εκ του ουρανου καταβασ ου καθωσ εφαγον οι πατερεσ υμων το μαννα και απεθανον ο τρωγων τουτον τον αρτον ζησεται εισ τον αιωνα
58 This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as our fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
59 ταυτα ειπεν εν συναγωγη διδασκων εν καπερναουμ
59 He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 πολλοι ουν ακουσαντεσ εκ των μαθητων αυτου ειπον σκληροσ εστιν ουτοσ ο λογοσ τισ δυναται αυτου ακουειν
60 Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”
61 ειδωσ δε ο ιησουσ εν εαυτω οτι γογγυζουσιν περι τουτου οι μαθηται αυτου ειπεν αυτοισ τουτο υμασ σκανδαλιζει
61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?
62 εαν ουν θεωρητε τον υιον του ανθρωπου αναβαινοντα οπου ην το προτερον
62 Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
63 το πνευμα εστιν το ζωοποιουν η σαρξ ουκ ωφελει ουδεν τα ρηματα α εγω λαλω υμιν πνευμα εστιν και ζωη εστιν
63 It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.
64 αλλ εισιν εξ υμων τινεσ οι ου πιστευουσιν ηδει γαρ εξ αρχησ ο ιησουσ τινεσ εισιν οι μη πιστευοντεσ και τισ εστιν ο παραδωσων αυτον
64 But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.
65 και ελεγεν δια τουτο ειρηκα υμιν οτι ουδεισ δυναται ελθειν προσ με εαν μη η δεδομενον αυτω εκ του πατροσ μου
65 He said, “For this cause I have said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by my Father.”
66 εκ τουτου πολλοι απηλθον των μαθητων αυτου εισ τα οπισω και ουκετι μετ αυτου περιεπατουν
66 At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.
67 ειπεν ουν ο ιησουσ τοισ δωδεκα μη και υμεισ θελετε υπαγειν
67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, “You don’t also want to go away, do you?”
68 απεκριθη ουν αυτω σιμων πετροσ κυριε προσ τινα απελευσομεθα ρηματα ζωησ αιωνιου εχεισ
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.
69 και ημεισ πεπιστευκαμεν και εγνωκαμεν οτι συ ει ο χριστοσ ο υιοσ του θεου του ζωντοσ
69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
70 απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ουκ εγω υμασ τουσ δωδεκα εξελεξαμην και εξ υμων εισ διαβολοσ εστιν
70 Jesus answered them, “Didn’t I choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?”
71 ελεγεν δε τον ιουδαν σιμωνοσ ισκαριωτην ουτοσ γαρ εμελλεν αυτον παραδιδοναι εισ ων εκ των δωδεκα
71 Now he spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.

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).

  1. Commentary 6:9 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon LXXX)

    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.

  3. Commentary 6:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of John (Homily XLII)

    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.

  4. Quotes verse 6:1 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book II, Chapter XXI)

    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.

  5. Quotes verse 6:60–64 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book X, Chapters 24–25)

    … 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 …
