John 6:61–72

⁶¹Many therefore of his disciples, hearing it, said: This saying is hard; and who can hear it?

⁶²But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them: Doth this scandalize you?

⁶³If then you shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

⁶⁴It is the spirit that quickeneth: the flesh profiteth nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

⁶⁵But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe and who he was that would betray him.

⁶⁶And he said: Therefore did I say to you that no man can come to me, unless it be given him by my Father.

⁶⁷After this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

⁶⁸Then Jesus said to the twelve: Will you also go away?

⁶⁹And Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life.

⁷⁰And we have believed and have known that thou art the Christ, the Son of God.

⁷¹Jesus answered them: Have not I chosen you twelve? And one of you is a devil.

⁷²Now he meant Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon: for this same was about to betray him, whereas he was one of the twelve.
