John 6:54-68

Young's Literal Translation

⁵⁴ he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day;

⁵⁵ for my flesh truly is food, and my blood truly is drink;

⁵⁶ he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, doth remain in me, and I in him.

⁶⁶ From this [time] many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him,

⁶⁷ Jesus, therefore, said to the twelve, `Do ye also wish to go away?'

⁶⁸ Simon Peter, therefore, answered him, `Sir, unto whom shall we go? thou hast sayings of life age-during;
