I have been searching for direct translations into English of the words actually spoken by JESUS like the words that he used at the last supper. I have found extensive quotations in a "Gospel According to St Mathew" couple of quotes below:
(1) And he said: "Whoever finds the meaning of these words will not taste death."
(2) Jesus says:
(1) "The one who seeks should not cease seeking until he finds.
(2) And when he finds, he will be dismayed.
(3) And when he is dismayed, he will be astonished.
(4) And he will be king over the All."
(3) Jesus says:
(1) "If those who lead you say to you: 'Look, the kingdom is in the sky!' then the birds of the sky will precede you.
(2) If they say to you: 'It is in the sea,' then the fishes will precede you.
(3) Rather, the kingdom is inside of you and outside of you."
(4) "When you come to know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will realize that you are the children of the living Father.
(5) But if you do not come to know yourselves, then you exist in poverty, and you are poverty."
As you can see they do not make a great deal of sense presumably because they are out of context?
Any ideas as to where I can find more understandable direct quotations will be welcome.
To add to discussion, if you type a word like "Father" in search on this site, then (Modify) search, tap (Jesus words)
Then tap on each individual scripture: the translated words are broken down by words & English phrases, John 20:17, scroll down, bottom of page, you can hover over words for easy translation or click on each block for deeper translation study, this will take you to the Concordance comparisons & there you can find much more information.
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for or not, but you can search Jesus, click Who is Jesus and get into various pages, one showing Jesus's quotes.
I think if you click on each verse you can see other translations and probably commentaries. You asked where you could find more understandable quotes of Jesus, so maybe that points you in the right direction?

These translations are from Greek,
Hopefully this is helpful
