Saith to him one of his disciples, Andreas, brother of Shemun Kipha,

And when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, Gather the fragments that abound, that nothing be lost;

AND when it was eventide, his disciples went down to the sea.

The day after the people that stood on the opposite shore of the sea saw that there was not another vessel there except that into which the disciples had ascended, and that Jeshu had not entered with his disciples into the vessel;

And when that company saw that Jeshu was not there nor his disciples, they ascended into those boats, and came to Kapher-nachum. And they sought Jeshu;

The Jihudoyee contended one with another, saying, How can this his body give to us to eat ?

And Jeshu said to them, Amen, amen, I tell you, That unless you eat the body [fn] of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in yourselves.

And many of his disciples who heard said, A hard word is this: who can hear it ?

BUT Jeshu knew in himself that his disciples murmured concerning this; and he said to them, Does this stumble you ?

On account of this word many of his disciples went back, and walked not with him.

And his brethren said to Jeshu, Remove thee hence, and go into Jihuda, that thy disciples may see the works which thou doest.

For neither did his brethren believe in him, in Jeshu.

But when his brethren had ascended to the feast, then also he ascended; not in openness, but as in concealment.

Jeshu answered and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his who sent me.

Whosoever willeth to do his will understandeth my doctrine, if it be from Aloha, or (if) from the will of myself I speak.

He who from the will of his (own) mind speaketh, the glory of himself seeketh; but he who the glory of him who hath sent him seeketh, is true, and no iniquity is in him.

Jeshu lifted up his voice as he taught in the temple, and said, You know me, and from whence I am you know: and of myself I am not come; but true is he who sent me, he whom you know not.

And they sought to apprehend him; but no man laid hands on him, because not yet was come his hour.

for whosoever believeth in me, as have said the scriptures, rivers of living waters shall flow from his belly.

Now many of the assemblies who heard his words said, This is truly the Prophet.
