Original text and translations

Latin text

Panis quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita.
Litigabant ergo Iudaei ad invicem, dicentes:
Quomodo potest hic nobis carnem suam dare ad manducandum.

Locutus est populus ad Dominum:
Anima nostra nauseat super cibo isto levissimo.

English translation

This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. (John 6:51b)
Then the Jews began to quarrel among themselves, saying,
“How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” (John 6:52b-53)

The people spoke to the Lord,
“Our soul grows sick over this light bread.” (Numbers 21:5)
