⁴⁰For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son^o and believes in him shall have eternal life,^p and I will raise them up at the last day.”

⁴¹At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” ⁴²They said, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph,^q whose father and mother we know?^r How can he now say, ‘I came down from heaven’?”^s

⁴³“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus answered. ⁴⁴“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them,^t and I will raise them up at the last day. ⁴⁵It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’^d^u Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me. ⁴⁶No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God;^v only he has seen the Father. ⁴⁷Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.^w ⁴⁸I am the bread of life.^x ⁴⁹Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.^y ⁵⁰But here is the bread that comes down from heaven,^z which anyone may eat and not die.
