53 So Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; 55 for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink. 56 Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. 57 Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they died. But the one who eats this bread will live forever.” (NRSV)
53 So Jesus told them, “Let me tell you this: if you don’t eat the Human One’s flesh and drink his blood, you won’t have life in you. 54 Everyone who feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has unending life, and I will raise them on the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food, and my blood real drink. 56 Those who feed on my flesh and drink my blood remain in me, and I in them. 57 The living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father. Just so, anyone who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that comes down from heaven. Unlike your ancestors who ate [manna] and then died, anyone who feeds on this bread will live forever.” (SV)
