1 Depois disto partiu Jesus para o outro lado do mar da Galiléia, também chamado de Tiberíades.

2 E seguia-o uma grande multidão, porque via os sinais que operava sobre os enfermos.

3 Subiu, pois, Jesus ao monte e sentou-se ali com seus discípulos.

4 Ora, a páscoa, a festa dos judeus, estava próxima.

5 Então Jesus, levantando os olhos, e vendo que uma grande multidão vinha ter com ele, disse a Felipe: Onde compraremos pão, para estes comerem?

6 Mas dizia isto para o experimentar; pois ele bem sabia o que ia fazer.

7 Respondeu-lhe Felipe: Duzentos denários de pão não lhes bastam, para que cada um receba um pouco.

8 Ao que lhe disse um dos seus discípulos, André, irmão de Simão Pedro:

9 Está aqui um rapaz que tem cinco pães de cevada e dois peixinhos; mas que é isto para tantos?

10 Disse Jesus: Fazei reclinar-se o povo. Ora, naquele lugar havia muita relva. Reclinaram-se aí, pois, os homens em número de quase cinco mil.

11 Jesus, então, tomou os pães e, havendo dado graças, repartiu-os pelos que estavam reclinados; e de igual modo os peixes, quanto eles queriam.

12 E quando estavam saciados, disse aos seus discípulos: Recolhei os pedaços que sobejaram, para que nada se perca.

13 Recolheram-nos, pois e encheram doze cestos de pedaços dos cinco pães de cevada, que sobejaram aos que haviam comido.

14 Vendo, pois, aqueles homens o sinal que Jesus operara, diziam: este é verdadeiramente o profeta que havia de vir ao mundo.

1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. 3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? 6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him, 9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? 10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. 12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. 13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
