1 After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee--that is, the sea of Tiberias.

2 And a great number of people went after him because they saw the signs which he did on those who were ill.

3 Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.

4 Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.

5 Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?

6 This he said, testing him: for he had no doubt what he himself would do.

7 Philip made answer, Bread to the value of two hundred pence would not be enough even to give everyone a little.

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Jesus,

9 There is a boy here with five barley cakes and two fishes: but what is that among such a number?

10 Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

11 Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.

12 And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.

13 So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.

14 And when the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, Truly, this is the prophet who is to come into the world.

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."
