Psalm 9:10-11
And those who know Your name will put their trust in You;For You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.
Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion!
Declare His deeds among the people.
Jn 6:54-58
Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven--not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever." ...Synaxarium

مزامير ٩ : ١٠-١١
وَيَتَّكِلُ عَلَيْكَ الْعَارِفُونَ اسْمَكَ. لأَنَّكَ لَمْ تَتْرُكْ طَالِبِيكَ يَا رَبُّ. رَنِّمُوا لِلرَّبِّ السَّاكِنِ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ. أَخْبِرُوا بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ بِأَفْعَالِهِ.يوحنا ٦ : ٥٤-٥٨
مَنْ يَأْكُلُ جَسَدِي وَيَشْرَبُ دَمِي فَلَهُ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ وَأَنَا أُقِيمُهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ لأَنَّ جَسَدِي مَأْكَلٌ حَقٌّ وَدَمِي مَشْرَبٌ حَقٌّ. مَنْ يَأْكُلْ جَسَدِي وَيَشْرَبْ دَمِي يَثْبُتْ فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيهِ. كَمَا أَرْسَلَنِي الآبُ الْحَيُّ وَأَنَا حَيٌّ بِالآبِ فَمَنْ يَأْكُلْنِي فَهُوَ يَحْيَا بِي. هَذَا هُوَ الْخُبْزُ الَّذِي نَزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ. لَيْسَ كَمَا أَكَلَ آبَاؤُكُمُ الْمَنَّ وَمَاتُوا. مَنْ يَأْكُلْ هَذَا الْخُبْزَ فَإِنَّهُ يَحْيَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ». ...السنكسار
