WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
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.
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 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he performed on them that were diseased.
2 Y seguíale grande multitud, porque veían sus señales que hacía en los enfermos.
2 A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick.
3 And Jesus went upon a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
3 Y subió Jesús á un monte, y se sentó allí con sus discípulos.
3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
4 Y estaba cerca la Pascua, la fiesta de los Judíos.
4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
5 When Jesus then lifted up [his] eyes, and saw a great company come to him, he saith to 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?
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 (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.
6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred penny-worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them make take a little:
7 Respondióle Felipe: Doscientos denarios de pan no les bastarán, para que cada uno de ellos tome un poco.
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 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith to him,
8 Dícele uno de sus discípulos, Andrés, hermano de Simón Pedro:
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,
9 There is a lad here, who 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?
9 “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?”
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.
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 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.
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 When they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, Gather the fragments that remain, that nothing may be lost.
12 Y como fueron saciados, dijo á sus discípulos: Recoged los pedazos que han quedado, porque no se pierda nada.
12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”
13 Therefore they gathered [them] , and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley-loaves, which remained over and above to 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.
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 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus performed, said, This is truly 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.
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again to a mountain himself alone.
15 Y entendiendo Jesús que habían de venir para arrebatarle, y hacerle rey, volvió á retirarse al monte, él solo.
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 And when evening had [now] come, his disciples went down to the sea,
16 Y como se hizo tarde, descendieron sus discípulos á la mar;
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.
17 And entered into a boat, and went over the sea towards Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had 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.
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 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
18 Y levantábase la mar con un gran viento que soplaba.
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh to the boat: 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.
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 But he saith to them, It is I; be not afraid.
20 Mas él les dijo: Yo soy; no tengáis miedo.
20 But he said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
21 Then they willingly received him into the boat: and immediately the boat was at the land whither they were going.
21 Ellos entonces gustaron recibirle en el barco: y luego el barco llegó á la tierra donde iban.
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
22 The day following, when the people who stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, save that one into which his disciples had entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but [that] his disciples had 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;
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 (Yet there came other boats from Tiberias nigh to the place where they ate bread, after 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;
23 However, boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took boats, 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.
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 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
25 Y hallándole de la otra parte de la mar, dijéronle: Rabbí, ¿cuándo llegaste acá?
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were satisfied.
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.
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 Labor not for the food which perisheth, but for that food which endureth to everlasting life, which the Son of man will give to 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.
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 Then said they to him, What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?
28 Y dijéronle: ¿Qué haremos para que obremos las obras de Dios?
28 They said therefore to him, “What must we do, that we may work the works of God?”
29 Jesus answered and said to 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.
29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
30 They said therefore to him, What sign showest 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?
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 Our fathers ate 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.
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”
32 Then Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to 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.
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 For the bread of God is he who cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world.
33 Porque el pan de Dios es aquel que descendió del cielo y da vida al mundo.
33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 Then said they to him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
34 Y dijéronle: Señor, danos siempre este pan.
34 They said therefore to him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
35 And Jesus said to 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.
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 But I said to you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
36 Mas os he dicho, que aunque me habéis visto, no creéis.
36 But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you don’t believe.
37 All that the Father giveth me, shall come to me; and him that cometh to me, I will in no wise reject.
37 Todo lo que el Padre me da, vendrá á mí; y al que á mí viene, no [le] hecho fuera.
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 For I came down from heaven, not to do my 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.
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
39 And this is the Father's will who 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.
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 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one who 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.
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 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.
41 The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, “I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”
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?
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 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves.
43 Y Jesús respondió, y díjoles: No murmuréis entre vosotros.
43 Therefore Jesus answered them, “Don’t murmur among yourselves.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father who 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.
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 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught from God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned from the Father, cometh to 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.
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 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he who is from 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.
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.
47 Verily, verily, I say to you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
47 De cierto, de cierto os digo: El que cree en mí, tiene vida eterna.
47 Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.
49 Your fathers ate manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
49 Vuestros padres comieron el maná en el desierto, y son muertos.
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat of it, and not die.
50 Este es el pan que desciende del cielo, para que el que de él comiere, no muera.
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man shall 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.
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 The Jews therefore contended 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?
52 The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
53 Then Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to 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.
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 Whoever 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.
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
55 Porque mi carne es verdadera comida, y mi sangre es verdadera bebida.
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
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.
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
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.
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 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers ate 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.
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 These things he said in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
59 Estas cosas dijo en la sinagoga, enseñando en Capernaum.
59 He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard [this] , said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?
60 Y muchos de sus discípulos oyéndo[lo], dijeron: Dura es esta palabra: ¿quién la puede oir?
60 Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying! Who can listen to it?”
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said to them, Doth this offend you?
61 Y sabiendo Jesús en sí mismo que sus discípulos murmuraban de esto, díjoles: ¿Esto os escandaliza?
61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?
62 [What] 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?
62 Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
63 It is the spirit that reviveth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak to 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.
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 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would 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.
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 And he said, Therefore I said to you, that no man can come to me, except it were given to him by my Father.
65 Y dijo: Por eso os he dicho que ninguno puede venir á mí, si no le fuere dado del Padre.
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 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.
66 At this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.
67 Then said Jesus to the twelve, Will ye also go away?
67 Dijo entonces Jesús á los doce: ¿Queréis vosotros iros también?
67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, “You don’t also want to go away, do you?”
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.
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.
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.
69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
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?
70 Jesus answered them, “Didn’t I choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?”
71 He spoke of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon: for it was he that was to 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.
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).
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.

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 …
