John 6:42 in Context — John 6
40 La volonté de mon Père,c’est que quiconque voit le Fils et croit en lui ait la vie éternelle; et je le ressusciterai au dernier jour.
41 Les Juifs murmuraient à son sujet, parce qu’il avait dit: Je suis le pain qui est descendu du ciel.
42 Et ils disaient: N’est-ce pas là Jésus, le fils de Joseph, celui dont nous connaissons le père et la mère? Comment donc dit-il: Je suis descendu du ciel?
43 Jésus leur répondit: Ne murmurez pas entre vous.
44 Nul ne peut venir à moi, si le Père qui m’a envoyé ne l’attire; et je le ressusciterai au dernier jour.
