إنجيل القدّيس يوحنّا .71-60:6

لَمَّا سَمِعَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ التَلامِيذ، قَالُوا: «إِنَّ هذَا الكَلامَ صَعْبٌ، مَنْ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَسْمَعَهُ؟
وعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ في نَفْسِهِ أَنَّ تَلامِيذَهُ يَتَذَمَّرُونَ مِنْ كَلامِهِ هذَا، فَقَالَ لَهُم: «أَهذَا يُسَبِّبُ شَكًّا لَكُم؟
فَكَيْفَ لَو شَاهَدْتُمُ ٱبْنَ الإِنْسَانِ صَاعِدًا إِلى حَيْثُ كَانَ أَوَّلاً؟
أَلرُّوحُ هُوَ المُحْيِي، والجَسَدُ لا يُفيدُ شَيْئًا. والكَلامُ الَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُم أَنَا بِهِ هُوَ رُوحٌ وهُوَ حَيَاة
لكِنَّ بَعْضًا مِنْكُم لا يُؤْمِنُون». قَالَ يَسُوعُ هذَا لأَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ البَدْءِ يَعْلَمُ مَنِ الَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُون، ومَنِ الَّذي سَيُسْلِمُهُ
ثُمَّ قَال: «لِهذَا قُلْتُ لَكُم: لا أَحَدَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِليَّ، مَا لَمْ يُعْطَ لَهُ ذلِكَ مِنْ لَدُنِ الآب
مِنْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ ٱرْتَدَّ عَنْ يَسُوعَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنْ تَلامِيذِهِ، ولَمْ يَعُودُوا يَتْبَعُونَهُ
فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لِلٱثْنَي عَشَر: «وَأَنْتُم، أَلا تُرِيدُونَ أَيْضًا أَنْ تَذْهَبُوا؟
أَجَابَهُ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُس: «يَا رَبّ، إِلى مَنْ نَذْهَب، وكَلامُ الحَيَاةِ عِنْدَكَ؟
ونَحْنُ آمَنَّا، وعَرَفْنَا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ قُدُّوسُ الله
أَجَابَهُم يَسُوع: «أَمَا أَنَا ٱخْتَرْتُكُم، أَنْتُمُ الٱثْنَي عَشَر؟ مَعَ ذلِكَ فَوَاحِدٌ مِنْكُم شَيْطَان
وكَان يُشيرُ إِلى يَهُوذَا بْنِ سِمْعَانَ الإِسْخَريُوطِيّ، الَّذي كَانَ مُزمِعًا أَنْ يُسْلِمَهُ، وهُوَ أَحَدُ الٱثْنَي عَشَر

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 6:60-69. 

Many of the disciples of Jesus who were listening said, «This saying is hard; who can accept it?»
Since Jesus knew that his disciples were murmuring about this, he said to them, “Does this shock you? 
What if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
It is the spirit that gives life, while the flesh is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
But there are some of you who do not believe.” Jesus knew from the beginning the ones who would not believe and the one who would betray him. 
And he said, “For this reason I have told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by my Father.” 
As a result of this, many (of) his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him. 
Jesus then said to the Twelve, “Do you also want to leave?” 
Simon Peter answered him, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 
We have come to believe and are convinced that you are the Holy One of God.”
