⁶ `Happy those hungering and thirsting for righteousness -- because they shall be filled.

¹⁴ but whoever may drink of the water that I will give him, may not thirst -- to the age; and the water that I will give him shall become in him a well of water, springing up to life age-during.'

⁹ For He hath satisfied a longing soul, And a hungry soul hath filled `with' goodness.

²⁷ work not for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to life age-during, which the Son of Man will give to you, for him did the Father seal -- `even' God.'

¹ To the Overseer. -- An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward Thee, O God.

² My soul thirsted for God, for the living God, When do I enter and see the face of God?

⁴⁸ I am the bread of the life;

⁴⁹ your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;

⁵⁰ this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die.

⁵¹ `I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live -- to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.'

⁵² The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, `How is this one able to give us `his' flesh to eat?'

⁵³ Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;

⁵⁴ he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, hath life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day;

⁵⁵ for my flesh truly is food, and my blood truly is drink;

⁵⁶ he who is eating my flesh, and is drinking my blood, doth remain in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ `According as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating me, even that one shall live because of me;

⁵⁸ this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.'

³⁷ And in the last, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, `If any one doth thirst, let him come unto me and drink;

¹ Ho, every thirsty one, come ye to the waters, And he who hath no money, Come ye, buy and eat, yea, come, buy Without money and without price, wine and milk.

² Why do ye weigh money for that which is not bread? And your labour for that which is not for satiety? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat good, And your soul doth delight itself in fatness.

³ Incline your ear, and come unto me, Hear, and your soul doth live, And I make for you a covenant age-during, The kind acts of David -- that are stedfast.

¹⁶ they shall not hunger any more, nor may the sun fall upon them, nor any heat,

²¹ `Happy those hungering now -- because ye shall be filled. `Happy those weeping now -- because ye shall laugh.

³ For I pour waters on a thirsty one, And floods on a dry land, I pour My Spirit on thy seed, And My blessing on thine offspring.

⁶ And made hath Jehovah of Hosts, For all the peoples in this mount, A banquet of fat things, a banquet of preserved things, Fat things full of marrow, preserved things refined.

¹ A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou `art' my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.

² So in the sanctuary I have seen Thee, To behold Thy strength and Thine honour.

¹¹ Lo, days are coming, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I have sent a famine into the land, Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst of water But of hearing the words of Jehovah.

¹² And they have wandered from sea unto sea, And from north even unto east, They go to and fro to seek the word of Jehovah, And they do not find.

¹³ In that day faint do the fair virgins, And the young men, with thirst.

⁵³ The hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,

¹⁹ The desire of those fearing Him He doth, And their cry He heareth, and saveth them.

²⁵ `Wo to you who have been filled -- because ye shall hunger. `Wo to you who are laughing now -- because ye shall mourn and weep.

⁶ Many are saying, `Who doth show us good?' Lift on us the light of Thy face, O Jehovah,

⁷ Thou hast given joy in my heart, From the time their corn and their wine Have been multiplied.

¹³ Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, My servants do eat, and ye do hunger, Lo, My servants do drink, and ye do thirst, Lo, My servants rejoice, and ye are ashamed,

² My soul desired, yea, it hath also been consumed, For the courts of Jehovah, My heart and my flesh cry aloud unto the living God,

⁴ O the happiness of `him whom' Thou choosest, And drawest near, he inhabiteth Thy courts, We are satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, Thy holy temple.

⁵ As `with' milk and fatness is my soul satisfied, And `with' singing lips doth my mouth praise.

¹⁵ I -- in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in awaking, `with' Thy form!

¹⁷ The poor and the needy are seeking water, And there is none, Their tongue with thirst hath failed, I, Jehovah do answer them, The God of Israel -- I forsake them not.

¹¹ So that ye suck, and have been satisfied, From the breast of her consolations, So that ye wring out, and have delighted yourselves From the abundance of her honour.

⁹ To say to the bound, Go out, To those in darkness, Be uncovered. On the ways they feed, And in all high places is their pasture.

¹⁰ They do not hunger, nor thirst, Nor smite them doth mirage and sun, For He who is pitying them doth lead them, And by fountains of waters doth tend them.

¹ I have come in to my garden, my sister-spouse, I have plucked my myrrh with my spice, I have eaten my comb with my honey, I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, drink, Yea, drink abundantly, O beloved ones!
