1 Depois disto partiu Jesus para o outro lado do mar da Galileia, que é o de Tiberíades.

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

3 E Jesus subiu ao monte, e assentou-se ali com os seus discípulos.

4 E 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 Filipe: Onde compraremos pão, para estes comerem?

6 Mas dizia isto para o experimentar; porque ele bem sabia o que havia de fazer.

7 Filipe respondeu-lhe: Duzentos dinheiros de pão não lhes bastarão, para que cada um deles tome um pouco.

8 E um dos seus discípulos, André, irmão de Simão Pedro, disse-lhe:

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

10 E disse Jesus: Mandai assentar os homens. E havia muita relva naquele lugar. Assentaram-se, pois, os homens em número de quase cinco mil.

11 E Jesus tomou os pães e, havendo dado graças, repartiu-os pelos discípulos, e os discípulos pelos que estavam assentados; e igualmente também dos 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 milagre que Jesus tinha feito, diziam: Este é verdadeiramente o Profeta que devia vir ao mundo.

1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is also called the Sea of Tiberias. 2 A great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he did on those who were sick. 3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples. 4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. 5 Jesus therefore, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great multitude was coming to him, said to Philip, "Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?" 6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.

7 Philip answered him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may receive a little."

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, 9 "There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?"

10 Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down, likewise also of the fish as much as they desired. 12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, "Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost." 13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten. 14 When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, "This is truly the prophet who comes into the world."
