John 6:46-54 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

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.

51. I am the living bread, who descended from heaven.

52. If anyone eats from this bread, he shall live in eternity. And the bread that I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world."

53. Therefore, the Jews debated among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

54. And so, Jesus said to them: "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you will not have life in you.
