John 6:27-35

New International Version

²⁷ Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures^(A) to eternal life,^(B) which the Son of Man^(C) will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal^(D) of approval.”

²⁸ Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”

²⁹ Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe^(E) in the one he has sent.”^(F)

³⁰ So they asked him, “What sign^(G) then will you give that we may see it and believe you?^(H) What will you do? ³¹ Our ancestors ate the manna^(I) in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’^[a]”^(J)

³² Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. ³³ For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven^(K) and gives life to the world.”

³⁴ “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”^(L)

³⁵ Then Jesus declared, “I am^(M) the bread of life.^(N) Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes^(O) in me will never be thirsty.^(P)
