may see it and believe you? What will you do? 31Our forefathers ate

the manna in the desert; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from

heaven to eat.' "

32 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, it is not Moses who has

given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you

the true bread from heaven. 33For the bread of God is he who comes

down from heaven and gives life to the world."

34 "Sir," they said, "from now on give us this bread."
