1 P ASADAS estas cosas, fuése Jesús de la otra parte de la mar de Galilea, que es de Tiberias.

After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),

2 Y seguíale grande multitud, porque veían sus señales que hacía en los enfermos.

and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

3 Y subió Jesús á un monte, y se sentó allí con sus discípulos.

and Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples,

4 Y estaba cerca la Pascua, la fiesta de los Judíos.

and the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews.

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?

Jesus then having lifted up eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, `Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' --

6 M as esto decía para probarle; porque él sabía lo que había de hacer.

and this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do.

7 R espondióle Felipe: Doscientos denarios de pan no les bastarán, para que cada uno de ellos tome un poco.

Philip answered him, `Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'

8 D ícele uno de sus discípulos, Andrés, hermano de Simón Pedro:

one of his disciples -- Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter -- saith to him,

9 U n muchacho está aquí que tiene cinco panes de cebada y dos pececillos; ¿mas qué es esto entre tantos?

`There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?'

10 E ntonces Jesús dijo: Haced recostar la gente. Y había mucha hierba en aquel lugar: y recostáronse como número de cinco mil varones.

And Jesus said, `Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,

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.

and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.

12 Y como fueron saciados, dijo á sus discípulos: Recoged los pedazos que han quedado, porque no se pierda nada.

And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, `Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'

13 C ogieron pues, é hinchieron doce cestas de pedazos de los cinco panes de cebada, que sobraron á los que habían comido.

they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.

14 A quellos hombres entonces, como vieron la señal que Jesús había hecho, decían: Este verdaderamente es el profeta que había de venir al mundo.

The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said -- `This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;'

15 Y entendiendo Jesús que habían de venir para arrebatarle, y hacerle rey, volvió á retirarse al monte, él solo.

Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

16 Y como se hizo tarde, descendieron sus discípulos á la mar;

And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

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.

and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

18 Y levantábase la mar con un gran viento que soplaba.

the sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised,

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.

having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;

20 M as él les dijo: Yo soy; no tengáis miedo.

and he saith to them, `I am, be not afraid;'

21 E llos entonces gustaron recibirle en el barco: y luego el barco llegó á la tierra donde iban.

they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.

22 E l 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;

On the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one -- that into which his disciples entered -- and that Jesus went not in with his disciples into the little boat, but his disciples went away alone,

23 Y que otras navecillas habían arribado de Tiberias junto al lugar donde habían comido el pan después de haber el Señor dado gracias;

(and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),

24 C omo vió pues la gente que Jesús no estaba allí, ni sus discípulos, entraron ellos en las navecillas, y vinieron á Capernaum buscando á Jesús.

when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;

25 Y hallándole de la otra parte de la mar, dijéronle: Rabbí, ¿cuándo llegaste acá?

and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, `Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?'

26 R espondióles 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.

Jesus answered them and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied;

27 T rabajad 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.

work not for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to life age-during, which the Son of Man will give to you, for him did the Father seal -- God.'

28 Y dijéronle: ¿Qué haremos para que obremos las obras de Dios?

They said therefore unto him, `What may we do that we may work the works of God?'

29 R espondió Jesús, y díjoles: Esta es la obra de Dios, que creáis en el que él ha enviado.

Jesus answered and said to them, `This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.'

30 D ijéronle entonces: ¿Qué señal pues haces tú, para que veamos, y te creamos? ¿Qué obras?

They said therefore to him, `What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?

31 N uestros padres comieron el maná en el desierto, como está escrito: Pan del cielo les dió á comer.

our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness, according as it is having been written, Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.'

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.

Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of the heaven; but my Father doth give you the true bread out of the heaven;

33 P orque el pan de Dios es aquel que descendió del cielo y da vida al mundo.

for the bread of God is that which is coming down out of the heaven, and giving life to the world.'

34 Y dijéronle: Señor, danos siempre este pan.

They said, therefore, unto him, `Sir, always give us this bread.'

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.

And Jesus said to them, `I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst -- at any time;

36 M as os he dicho, que aunque me habéis visto, no creéis.

but I said to you, that ye also have seen me, and ye believe not;

37 T odo lo que el Padre me da, vendrá á mí; y al que á mí viene, no le hecho fuera.

all that the Father doth give to me will come unto me; and him who is coming unto me, I may in no wise cast without,

38 P orque he descendido del cielo, no para hacer mi voluntad, mas la voluntad del que me envió.

because I have come down out of the heaven, not that I may do my will, but the will of Him who sent me.

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.

`And this is the will of the Father who sent me, that all that He hath given to me I may not lose of it, but may raise it up in 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.

and this is the will of Him who sent me, that every one who is beholding the Son, and is believing in him, may have life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day.'

41 M urmuraban entonces de él los Judíos, porque había dicho: Yo soy el pan que descendí del cielo.

The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at him, because he said, `I am the bread that came down out of the 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?

and they said, `Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then saith this one -- Out of the heaven I have come down?'

43 Y Jesús respondió, y díjoles: No murmuréis entre vosotros.

Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, `Murmur not one with another;

44 N inguno puede venir á mí, si el Padre que me envió no le trajere; y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.

no one is able to come unto me, if the Father who sent me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;

45 E scrito está en los profetas: Y serán todos enseñados de Dios. Así que, todo aquel que oyó del Padre, y aprendió, viene á mí.

it is having been written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God; every one therefore who heard from the Father, and learned, cometh to me;

46 N o que alguno haya visto al Padre, sino aquel que vino de Dios, éste ha visto al Padre.

not that any one hath seen the Father, except he who is from God, he hath seen the Father.

47 D e cierto, de cierto os digo: El que cree en mí, tiene vida eterna.

`Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is believing in me, hath life age-during;

48 Y o soy el pan de vida.

I am the bread of the life;

49 V uestros padres comieron el maná en el desierto, y son muertos.

your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;

50 E ste es el pan que desciende del cielo, para que el que de él comiere, no muera.

this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die.

51 Y o 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.

`I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live -- to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.'

52 E ntonces los Judíos contendían entre sí, diciendo: ¿Cómo puede éste darnos su carne á comer?

The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, `How is this one able to give us flesh to eat?'

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.

Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;

54 E l que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, tiene vida eterna: y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero.

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 P orque mi carne es verdadera comida, y mi sangre es verdadera bebida.

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

56 E l que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, en mí permanece, y yo en él.

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

57 C omo me envió el Padre viviente, y yo vivo por el Padre, asimismo el que me come, él también vivirá por mí.

`According as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating me, even that one shall live because of me;

58 E ste 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.

this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.'

59 E stas cosas dijo en la sinagoga, enseñando en Capernaum.

These things he said in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum;

60 Y muchos de sus discípulos oyéndo lo, dijeron: Dura es esta palabra: ¿quién la puede oir?

many, therefore, of his disciples having heard, said, `This word is hard; who is able to hear it?'

61 Y sabiendo Jesús en sí mismo que sus discípulos murmuraban de esto, díjoles: ¿Esto os escandaliza?

And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, `Doth this stumble you?

62 ¿ Pues qué, si viereis al Hijo del hombre que sube donde estaba primero?

if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?

63 E l espíritu es el que da vida; la carne nada aprovecha: las palabras que yo os he hablado, son espíritu y son vida.

the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;

64 M as 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.

but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,

65 Y dijo: Por eso os he dicho que ninguno puede venir á mí, si no le fuere dado del Padre.

and he said, `Because of this I have said to you -- No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.'

66 D esde esto, muchos de sus discípulos volvieron atrás, y ya no andaban con él.

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

67 D ijo entonces Jesús á los doce: ¿Queréis vosotros iros también?

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

68 Y respondióle Simón Pedro: Señor, ¿á quién iremos? tú tienes palabras de vida eterna.

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

69 Y nosotros creemos y conocemos que tú eres el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios viviente.

and we have believed, and we have known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'

70 J esús le respondió: ¿No he escogido yo á vosotros doce, y uno de vosotros es diablo?

Jesus answered them, `Did not I choose you -- the twelve? and of you -- one is a devil.

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.

And he spake of Judas, Simon's, Iscariot, for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve.
