After these things Jesus – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 6 After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),

²and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

³and Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples,

^{4 and the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews.}

⁵Jesus then having lifted up [his] eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, `Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?’ —

⁶and this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do.

⁷Philip answered him, `Two hundred denaries’ worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;’

⁸one of his disciples — Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter — saith to him,

⁹`There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these — what are they to so many?’

¹⁰And Jesus said, `Make the men to sit down;’ and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,

¹¹and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.

¹²And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, `Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;’

¹³they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.

¹⁴The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said — `This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;’

¹⁵Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

¹⁶And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

¹⁷and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

¹⁸the sea also — a great wind blowing — was being raised,

^{19 having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;}

²⁰and he saith to them, `I am [he], be not afraid;’

^{21 they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.}

²²On the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one — that into which his disciples entered — and that Jesus went not in with his disciples into the little boat, but his disciples went away alone,

²³(and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),

²⁴when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;

²⁵and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, `Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?’

²⁶Jesus answered them and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied;

²⁷work not for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to life age-during, which the Son of Man will give to you, for him did the Father seal — [even] God.’

²⁸They said therefore unto him, `What may we do that we may work the works of God?’

²⁹Jesus answered and said to them, `This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.’

^{30 They said therefore to him, `What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?}

³¹our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness, according as it is having been written, Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.’

^{32 Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of the heaven; but my Father doth give you the true bread out of the heaven;}

³³for the bread of God is that which is coming down out of the heaven, and giving life to the world.’

³⁴They said, therefore, unto him, `Sir, always give us this bread.’

³⁵And Jesus said to them, `I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst — at any time;

³⁶but I said to you, that ye also have seen me, and ye believe not;

³⁷all that the Father doth give to me will come unto me; and him who is coming unto me, I may in no wise cast without,

³⁸because I have come down out of the heaven, not that I may do my will, but the will of Him who sent me.

³⁹`And this is the will of the Father who sent me, that all that He hath given to me I may not lose of it, but may raise it up in the last day;

⁴⁰and this is the will of Him who sent me, that every one who is beholding the Son, and is believing in him, may have life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day.’

⁴¹The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at him, because he said, `I am the bread that came down out of the heaven;’

⁴²and they said, `Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then saith this one — Out of the heaven I have come down?’

⁴³Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, `Murmur not one with another;

⁴⁴no one is able to come unto me, if the Father who sent me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;

⁴⁵it is having been written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God; every one therefore who heard from the Father, and learned, cometh to me;

⁴⁶not that any one hath seen the Father, except he who is from God, he hath seen the Father.

⁴⁷`Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is believing in me, hath life age-during;

⁴⁸I am the bread of the life;

⁴⁹your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;

⁵⁰this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die.

⁵¹`I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live — to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.’

⁵²The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, `How is this one able to give us [his] flesh to eat?’

⁵³Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;

⁵⁴he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day;

⁵⁵for my flesh truly is food, and my blood truly is drink;

⁵⁶he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, doth remain in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷`According as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating me, even that one shall live because of me;

⁵⁸this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live — to the age.’

^{59 These things he said in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum;}

⁶⁰many, therefore, of his disciples having heard, said, `This word is hard; who is able to hear it?’

⁶¹And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, `Doth this stumble you?

⁶²if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?

^{63 the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;}

^{64 but there are certain of you who do not believe;’ for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,}

⁶⁵and he said, `Because of this I have said to you — No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.’

⁶⁶From this [time] many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him,

⁶⁷Jesus, therefore, said to the twelve, `Do ye also wish to go away?’

⁶⁸Simon Peter, therefore, answered him, `Sir, unto whom shall we go? thou hast sayings of life age-during;

⁶⁹and we have believed, and we have known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.’

⁷⁰Jesus answered them, `Did not I choose you — the twelve? and of you — one is a devil.

⁷¹And he spake of Judas, Simon’s [son], Iscariot, for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve. – Aslan International Ministry

I am the true vine – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 15 `I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman;

^{2 every branch in me not bearing fruit, He doth take it away, and every one bearing fruit, He doth cleanse by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit;}

^{3 already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;}

^{4 remain in me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither ye, if ye may not remain in me.}

^{5 `I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;}

^{6 if any one may not remain in me, he was cast forth without as the branch, and was withered, and they gather them, and cast to fire, and they are burned;}

^{7 if ye may remain in me, and my sayings in you may remain, whatever ye may wish ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.}

^{8 `In this was my Father glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye shall become my disciples.}

^{9 According as the Father did love me, I also loved you, remain in my love;}

^{10 if my commandments ye may keep, ye shall remain in my love, according as I the commands of my Father have kept, and do remain in His love;}

^{11 these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.}

^{12 `This is my command, that ye love one another, according as I did love you;}

^{13 greater love than this hath no one, that any one his life may lay down for his friends;}

¹⁴ye are my friends, if ye may do whatever I command you;

^{15 no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.}

^{16 `Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and did appoint you, that ye might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, He may give you.}

^{17 `These things I command you, that ye love one another;}

^{18 if the world doth hate you, ye know that it hath hated me before you;}

^{19 if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not — but I chose out of the world — because of this the world hateth you.}

^{20 `Remember the word that I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; if me they did persecute, you also they will persecute; if my word they did keep, yours also they will keep;}

^{21 but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;}

^{22 if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now pretext they have not for their sin.}

²³`He who is hating me, doth hate also my Father;

^{24 if I did not do among them the works that no other hath done, they were not having sin, and now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father;}

^{25 but — that the word may be fulfilled that was written in their law — They hated me without a cause.}

^{26 `And when the Comforter may come, whom I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth, who from the Father doth come forth, he will testify of me;}

^{27 and ye also do testify, because from the beginning ye are with me. – Aslan International Ministry}

For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own accord, begging us earnestly for the favor of taking part in the relief of the saints— and this, not as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us. …
