In der Zeit: Sprach der Herr Jesus zu den Schaaren der Juden:
Mein Fleisch ist wahrhaftig eine Speiß,
 ...  mein Blut ist wahrhaftig ein Trank.
Wer mein Fleisch isset, und trinket mein Blut,
der bleibt in mir, und ich in ihm.
Wie mich gesandt  ...  der lebendige Vater,
und ich lebe um des Vaters willen:
Also, wer mich isset,  ...  wird auch leben um meinet willen.
Dieses ist das Brod, das vom Himmel kommen ist.
Nicht wie eure Väter haben Himmelbrod gegessen, und sind gestorben. 
Wer von diesem Brot ißt, der wird leben in Ewigkeit.
