1 After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee, {or} of Tiberias,
2 and a great crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought upon the sick.
3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there sat with his disciples:
4 but the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Jesus then, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves that these may eat?
6 But this he said trying him, for he knew what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little {portion}.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,
9 There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fishes; but this, what is it for so many?
10 {And} Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place: the men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed {them} to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would.
12 And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.
13 They gathered {them} therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten.
14 The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.
1 Depois disto Jesus atravessou o mar da Galiléia, que é o de Tiberíades.
2 Uma grande multidão seguia-o, porque viram os milagres que operara nos que se achavam enfermos.
3 Jesus subiu ao monte, e ali se assentou com seus discípulos.
4 Ora a páscoa, festa dos judeus, estava próxima.
5 Jesus, então, levantando os olhos e vendo que uma grande multidão vinha ter com ele, disse a Filipe: Onde compraremos pão para lhes dar de comer?
6 (Mas dizia isto para o experimentar; porque ele sabia o que ia fazer).
7 Respondeu-lhe Filipe: Duzentos denários de pão não lhes bastam, para que cada um receba um pouco.
8 Um de seus discípulos, chamado André, irmão de Pedro, disse-lhe:
9 Está aqui um rapaz, que tem cinco pães de cevada e dois peixes, mas que é isto para tanto povo?
10 Disse Jesus: Fazei sentar o povo. Havia naquele lugar muito feno. Sentaram-se, pois, os homens em número de cerca de cinco mil.
11 Jesus, então, tomou os pães e, tendo dado graças, distribuiu-os pelos que estavam sentados; e do mesmo modo dos peixes, quanto queriam.
12 Depois de saciados, disse Jesus a seus discípulos: Recolhei os pedaços que sobejaram, para que nada se perca.
13 Assim os recolheram e encheram doze cestos de pedaços dos cinco pães de cevada, que sobejaram aos que haviam comido.
14 Quando o povo viu o milagre que Jesus fizera, dizia: Este é verdadeiramente o profeta que havia de vir ao mundo.
