27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that enduress to eternal life,t which the Son of Manu will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his sealv 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 believew in the one he has sent.”x

30 So they asked him, “What signy then will you give that we may see it and believe you?z What will you do? 31 Our ancestors ate the mannaa in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’c”b

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 heavenc and gives life to the world.”

34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”d

35 Then Jesus declared, “I ame the bread of life.f Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believesg in me will never be thirsty.h 36 But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. 37 All those the Father gives mei will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. 38 For I have come down from heavenj not to do my will but to do the willk of him who sent me.l 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me,m but raise them up at the last day.n 40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Sono and believes in him shall have eternal life,p and I will raise them up at the last day.”
