Ego sum panis vitae

Language: Latin

48 Ego sum panis vitae. 
49 Patres vestri manducaverunt manna  
   in deserto, et mortui sunt. 
50 Hic est panis de coelo descendens: 
   si quis ex ipso manducaverit, non morietur.
51 Ego sum panis vivus, qui de cælo descendi.
52 Si quis manducaverit ex hoc pane, vivet in æternum:
   et panis quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita.
   Alleluia.
