耶穌是生命的糧 — 約翰福音讀經隨筆 第6章

約翰福音第六章第32—58節耶穌多次提到他是生命的糧，到他這裏來的必定不餓，信他的永遠不渴。耶穌是天上來的真糧，賜生命給世界，叫人吃了就不死。耶穌說人若吃這糧、就必永遠活著，他的肉真是可吃的，他的血真是可喝的。耶穌的肉體被釘死在十字架上擔當了罪人的罪，耶穌在十字架上流的血是與我們所立的新約。相信福音的人就是吃耶穌肉喝耶穌血的人，就活在耶穌裏麵，耶穌也活在信他的人裏麵。

約6:32 耶穌說、我實實在在的告訴你們、那從天上來的糧、不是摩西賜給你們的、乃是我父將天上來的真糧賜給你們。
Jesus therefore said to them, "Most certainly, I tell you, it wasn't Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
約6:33 因為 神的糧、就是那從天上降下來賜生命給世界的。
For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world."
約6:35 耶穌說、我就是生命的糧．到我這裏來的、必定不餓．信我的、永遠不渴。
Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not be hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
約6:37 凡父所賜給我的人、必到我這裏來．到我這裏來的、我總不丟棄他。
All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.
約6:38 因為我從天上降下來、不是要按自己的意思行、乃是要按那差我來者的意思行。
For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
約6:39 差我來者的意思、就是他所賜給我的、叫我一個也不失落、在末日卻叫他複活。
This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.
約6:40 因為我父的意思、是叫一切見子而信的人得永生．並且在末日我要叫他複活。
This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
約6:47 我實實在在的告訴你們、信的人有永生。
Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.
約6:48 我就是生命的糧。
I am the bread of life.
約6:49 你們的祖宗在曠野吃過嗎哪、還是死了。
Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.
約6:50 這是從天上降下來的糧、叫人吃了就不死。
This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
約6:51 我是從天上降下來生命的糧．人若吃這糧、就必永遠活著．我所要賜的糧、就是我的肉、為世人之生命所賜的。
I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."
約6:53 耶穌說、我實實在在的告訴你們、你們若不吃人子的肉、不喝人子的血、就沒有生命在你們裏麵。
Jesus therefore said to them, "Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don't have life in yourselves.
約6:54 吃我肉喝我血的人就有永生．在末日我要叫他複活。
He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
約6:55 我的肉真是可吃的、我的血真是可喝的。
For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
約6:56 吃我肉喝我血的人、常在我裏麵、我也常在他裏麵。
He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
約6:57 永活的父怎樣差我來、我又因父活著、照樣、吃我肉的人、也要因我活著。
As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.
約6:58 這就是從天上降下來的糧．吃這糧的人、就永遠活著、不像你們的祖宗吃過嗎哪、還是死了。
This is the bread which came down out of heaven--not as our fathers ate the manna, and died. He who eats this bread will live forever."
