Other boats from Tiberias came near the place where they ate bread
after the Lord had given thanks. When all these people saw that neither
Jesus nor His disciples were there, they took boats to Capernaum to
look for Him.
When they found Jesus on the other side of the sea, they said to Him,
Rabbi, when did you come here? Jesus answered, You seek me not because
you saw the miracles, but because you ate of the loaves and were
filled. Do not labor for food that perishes but for the food that
endures for life everlasting. This is what the Son of man will give you
for on Him the Father has set His seal.
Then they asked Him, What is that work? Jesus said, This is the work of
God, that you believe in the one He sent. They asked, What sign can you
give us that we may see and believe you? What can you do? Our fathers
ate manna in the desert; as it is written: He gave them bread from
heaven to eat.
Jesus said, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave that bread from
heaven. My Father gave you the true bread from heaven; for the bread of
God is He who came down from heaven to give life to the world. Then
they said, Lord, give us this bread forever. Jesus said to them, I am
the bread of life. He who comes to me will never hunger. He who
believes in me will never thirst. But I also told you that, although
you have seen me, you do not believe me.
