1 M uri iho i enei mea ka whiti atu a Ihu i te moana o Kariri, ara i te moana o Taipiria.

After these things Jesus went over the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.

2 A he rahi te hui i aru i a ia, i kite hoki ratou i ana merekara i mea ai ia ki nga turoro.

Then a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were diseased.

3 N a ka haere a Ihu ki runga i te maunga, a noho ana i reira ratou ko ana akonga.

And Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.

4 K ua tata hoki te kapenga, te hakari a nga Hurai.

Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.

5 A , no te marangatanga ake o nga kanohi o Ihu, ka kite i te rahi o te hui e haere mai ana ki a ia; ka mea ia ki a Piripi, Ko hea tatou hoko ai i etahi taro, kia kai ai enei?

Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?”

6 I penei ai tana ki hei whakamatau mona; i mohio hoki ia ki tana e mea ai.

But this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.

7 K a mea a Piripi ki a ia, E kore e ranei ma ratou nga taro o nga pene e rua rau, kia whiwhi ai tenei, tenei o ratou i tetahi wahi iti.

Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little.”

8 K a mea tetahi o ana akonga ki a ia, a Anaru, teina o Haimona Pita,

One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,

9 H e tamaiti tenei, e rima ana taro pare, e rua ika nonohi; heoi hei aha enei ma tenei ope nui?

“There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?”

10 N a ka mea a Ihu, Meinga nga tangata kia noho. He nui hoki te tarutaru i taua wahi. Na noho ana nga tane ki raro, te tokomaha me te mea e rima mano.

Then Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

11 N a ka mau a Ihu ki nga taro; a ka mutu te whakawhetai, ka tuwha atu ki te hunga e moho ra; me nga ika ano, ta ratou i pai ai.

And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

12 A , no ka makona ratou, ka mea ia ki ana akonga, Kohikohia nga toenga o nga whatiwhatinga, kei maumauria tetahi wahi.

So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, “Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost.”

13 N a kohikohia ana e ratou, a whakakiia ana nga kete tekau ma rua ki nga whatiwhatinga o nga taro pare e rima, ki nga toenga a nga tangata i kai ra.

Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

14 A , i te kitenga o aua tangata i te merekara i meatia e Ihu, ka ki ratou, Ko ia ano tenei, ko te poropiti e haere mai ana ki te ao.

Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.” Jesus Walks on the Sea

15 N a ka mahara a Ihu, meake ratou haere mai ki te tango i a ia, ki te whakakingi i a ia, na maunu ana ano ia ki te maunga, ko ia anake.

Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.

16 A , no ka ahiahi, ka haere ana akonga ki te moana.

Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,

17 N a ka eke ratou ki te kaipuke, ka whakawhiti ki tawahi o te moana, ki Kaperenauma. A kua pouri noa ake, kahore ano a Ihu kia tae noa mai ki a ratou.

got into the boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was already dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

18 N a ko te turanga o te moana, he nui hoki no te puhanga o te hau.

Then the sea arose because a great wind was blowing.

19 N a, i to ratou hoenga atu, e rua tekau ma rima, e toru tekau ranei paronga, ka kite i a Ihu e haere maori ana i runga i te moana, e whakatata ana ki te kaipuke; na ka mataku ratou.

So when they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the boat; and they were afraid.

20 N a ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ko ahau tenei, aua e wehi.

But He said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.”

21 N a ka mea ratou kia eke ia ki te kaipuke: a kihai i aha kua u te kaipuke ki te wahi i hoe ai ratou.

Then they willingly received Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going. The Bread from Heaven

22 I te aonga ake, ka mahara te mano e tu ana ki tera taha o te moana, kahore he poti ke atu o reira, ko tera anake i eke ai ana akonga, kihai hoki a Ihu i eke tahi ratou ko ana akonga ki te poti, engari ko ana akonga anake i haere;

On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone—

23 H e poti ke ra ia i u mai i Taipiria ki pahaki atu o te wahi i kai ai ratou i te taro i ta te Ariki whakawhetainga:

however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks—

24 A , i te kitenga o te mano kahore a Ihu i reira, kahore ano hoki ana akonga, ka eke hoki ratou ki nga kaipuke, ka rere ki Kaperenauma ki te rapu i a Ihu.

when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

25 A , no to ratou kitenga i a ia i tawahi o te moana, ka mea ki a ia, E Rapi, nonahea koe i tae mai ai ki konei?

And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You come here?”

26 K a whakahoki a Ihu ki a ratou ka mea, He pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ehara i te mea he kitenga no koutou i nga merekara i rapu ai koutou i ahau, engari no te mea i kai koutou i nga taro, a ka makona.

Jesus answered them and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.

27 A ua e mahia te kai memeha, engari te kai e mau tonu ana a te ora tonu ra ano, ko ta te Tama hoki a te tangata e hoatu ai ki a koutou: kua oti hoki ia te whai tohu e te Atua, e te Matua.

Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.”

28 N a ka mea ratou ki a ia, Me aha matou e mahi ai i nga mahi a te Atua?

Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?”

29 K a whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko ta te Atua mahi tenei, kia whakapono koutou ki tana i tono mai ai.

Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”

30 N a ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ko tehea tohu te meatia ana e koe kia kite ai matou, kia whakapono ai ki a koe? tena koa tau mahi?

Therefore they said to Him, “What sign will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What work will You do?

31 I kai o tatou matua i te mana i te koraha; ko te mea hoki tena i tuhituhia, i homai e ia he taro i te rangi hei kai ma ratou.

Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’ ”

32 N a ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, he pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ehara i a Mohi nana i hoatu tena taro ki a koutou i te rangi; engari tenei te hoatu nei e toku Matua ki a koutou te taro pono o te rangi.

Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

33 K o te taro hoki a te Atua ko ia e heke iho ana i te rangi, e homai ana i te ora ki te ao.

For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

34 N a ka mea ratou ki a ia, E te Ariki, homai tenei taro ki a matou i nga wa katoa.

Then they said to Him, “Lord, give us this bread always.”

35 K a mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Ko ahau te taro o te ora: ki te haere mai tetahi ki ahau, e kore rawa ia e hiakai; ki te whakapono hoki tetahi ki ahau, e kore rawa ia e matewai.

And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

36 O tira i mea ano ahau ki a koutou, Kua kite koutou i ahau, a kahore i whakapono.

But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe.

37 K o a te Matua e homai ai ki ahau ka haere katoa mai ki ahau; a ki te haere mai tetahi ki ahau, e kore rawa e panga e ahau ki waho.

All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.

38 I heke iho hoki ahau i te rangi, ehara i te mea hei mahi i taku i pai ai, engari i ta toku kaitono mai i pai ai.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

39 K o ta te Matua i pai ai, nana nei ahau i tono mai, koia tenei, kia kaua e ngaro i ahau tetahi wahi o nga mea katoa i homai e ia ki ahau; engari kia whakaarahia ake e ahau a te ra whakamutunga.

This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

40 K o ta toku Matua hoki tenei i pai ai, ko te tangata e kite ana i te Tama, e whakapono ana ano ki a ia, kia whiwhi ia ki te ora tonu; maku ano ia e whakaara ake a te ra whakamutunga.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.” Rejected by His Own

41 N a ka korero komuhumuhu nga Hurai ki a ia, mona i mea, Ko ahau te taro i heke iho i te rangi.

The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.”

42 K a mea ratou, Ehara oti tenei i a Ihu, tama a Hohepa, e mohio nei tatou ki tona papa raua ko tona whaea? ha! he pehea tana e ki nei, I heke iho ahau i te rangi?

And they said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven’ ?”

43 N a ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kati te komuhumuhu i roto i a koutou.

Jesus therefore answered and said to them, “Do not murmur among yourselves.

44 K ahore he tangata e ahei te haere mai ki ahau, ki te kahore ia e kumea mai e te Matua, nana nei ahau i tono mai: e maku ano ia e whakaara ake a te ra whakamutunga.

No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

45 K ua oti te tuhituhi i roto i nga poropiti, A ka whakaakona ratou katoa e te Atua. Na, ko te tangata kua rongo ki te Matua, kua akona hoki, ka haere mai ki ahau.

It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

46 E hara i te mea kua kite tetahi i te Matua; ko ia anake i puta mai i te Atua, ko ia kua kite i te Matua.

Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father.

47 H e pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te whakapono tetahi, he ora tonu tona.

Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.

48 K o ahau te taro o te ora.

I am the bread of life.

49 I kai ra o koutou matua i te mana i te koraha, a i mate ratou.

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 K o te taro tenei e heke iho ana i te rangi, kia kai ai te tangata i a ia, a kia kaua e mate.

This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.

51 K o ahau te taro ora i heke iho i te rangi; ki te kai tetahi i tenei taro, e ora tonu ia: ae ra, ko te taro e hoatu e ahau ko oku kikokiko, e hoatu e ahau hei oranga mo te ao

I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

52 N a ka totohe nga Hurai tetahi ki tetahi, ka mea, Me pehea e homai ai e tenei tangata ona kikokiko kia kainga e tatou?

The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”

53 N a, ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a ratou, he pono, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te kahore koutou e kai i nga kikokiko o te Tama a te tangata, e inu i ona toto, kahore he ora i roto i a koutou ake.

Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.

54 K o ia e kai ana i oku kikokiko, e inu ana i oku toto, he ora tonu tona; a maku ia e whakaara ake a te ra whakamutunga.

Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

55 H e kai pono hoki oku kikokiko, he mea pono oku toto hei inumanga.

For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed.

56 K o ia e kai ana i oku kikokiko, e inu ana i oku toto, e noho ana i roto i ahau, me ahau hoki i roto i a ia.

He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him.

57 N a te Matua ora hoki ahau i tono mai, no te Matua ano toku ora: waihoki ki te kai tetahi i ahau, kei ahau he ora mona.

As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me.

58 K o te taro tenei i heke iho i te rangi: e kore e pera i ta o koutou matua i kai ra, a mate ana; ki te kai tetahi i tenei taro, e ora tonu ia.

This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

59 I korerotia enei mea e ia i roto i te whare karakia, i a ia e whakaako ana i Kaperenauma.

These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum. Many Disciples Turn Away

60 N a he tokomaha ana akonga i te rongonga, i mea, he kupu pakeke tenei; ko wai e ahei te whakarongo atu?

Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying; who can understand it?”

61 K a mohio ia a Ihu i roto i a ia, e komuhumuhu ana ana akonga ki tenei, ka mea ia ki a ratou, E he ana koutou ki tenei?

When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples complained about this, He said to them, “Does this offend you?

62 K a pehea ra ki te kite koutou i te Tama a te tangata e kake atu ana ki te wahi i noho ai ia i mua?

What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before?

63 K o te wairua te whakaora ana; kahore a te kikokiko wahi: ko nga kupu e korero nei ahau ki a koutou he wairua, he ora.

It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

64 T enei ano ia etahi o koutou kahore o ratou whakapono. I matau hoki a Ihu no te timatanga ki nga mea kahore o ratou whakapono, ki te tangata ano e tukua ai ia.

But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him.

65 A ka mea ia, Na konei ahau i mea ai ki a koutou, Kahore he tangata e ahei te haere mai ki ahau, ki te kahore e hoatu ki a ia e toku Matua.

And He said, “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”

66 I taua wa he tokomaha ana akonga i hoki ki muri, a mutu ake ta ratou haere tahi me ia.

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more.

67 N a ka mea a Ihu ki te tekau ma rua, E mea ana ano ranei koutou kia haere?

Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”

68 N a ka whakahokia e Haimona Pita ki a ia, E te Ariki, me haere matou ki a wai? kei a koe nga kupu o te ora tonu.

But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.

69 K ua whakapono matou, kua matau, ko te Karaiti koe, ko te Tama a te Atua ora.

Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

70 K a whakahokia e Ihu ki a ratou, he teka ianei kotahi tekau ma rua koutou i whiriwhiria e ahau, he rewera ano tetahi o koutou?

Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?”

71 K o Hura Ikariote tama a Haimona tana i korero ai: ko te tanga hoki ia meake nei tuku i a ia; ko tetahi hoki ia o te tekau ma rua.

He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve.
