30 And the apostles are gathered together to Jesus. And they related to him all things, {both} what they had done and what they had taught.

31 And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place and rest a little. For those coming and those going were many, and they had not leisure even to eat.

32 And they went away apart into a desert place by ship.

33 And many saw them going, and recognised them, and ran together there on foot, out of all the cities, and got {there} before them.

34 And on leaving {the ship} {Jesus} saw a great crowd, and he was moved with compassion for them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.

35 And when it was already late in the day, his disciples coming to him say, The place is desert, and it is already late in the day;

36 send them away that they may go into the country and villages around, and buy themselves bread, for they have not anything they can eat.

37 And he answering said to them, Give *ye* them to eat. And they say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them to eat?

38 And he says to them, How many loaves have ye? Go {and} see. And when they knew they say, Five, and two fishes.

39 And he ordered them to make them all sit down by companies on the green grass.

40 And they sat down in ranks by hundreds and by fifties.

41 And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave {them} to his disciples that they might set {them} before them. And the two fishes he divided among all.

42 And they all ate and were satisfied.

43 And they took up of fragments the fillings of twelve hand-baskets, and of the fishes.

44 And those that ate of the loaves were five thousand men.

30 Reunindo-se os apóstolos com Jesus, contaram-lhe tudo quanto haviam feito e ensinado.

31 Ele lhes disse: Vinde a um lugar solitário, à parte, e descansai um pouco. Pois eram muitos os que vinham e iam, e nem tinham tempo para comer.

32 Então foram sós na barca a um lugar deserto.

33 Muitos os viram partir, e os reconheceram; correram para lá, a pé, de todas as cidades, e ali chegaram primeiro do que eles.

34 Ao desembarcar, viu Jesus uma grande multidão de homens e compadeceu-se deles, porque eram como ovelhas sem pastor; e começou a ensinar-lhes muitas coisas.

35 Como a hora fosse já adiantada, chegaram-se a ele seus discípulos, dizendo: Este lugar é deserto, e já é muito tarde;

36 despede-os, para que vão aos sítios e às aldeias circunvizinhas comprar para si alguma comida.

37 Mas Jesus disse: Dai-lhes vós de comer. Deveremos, disseram eles, ir comprar duzentos denários de pão e dar-lhes de comer?

38 Ele lhes perguntou: Quantos pães tendes? ide ver. Depois de se terem informado, responderam: Cinco pães e dois peixes.

39 Então mandou aos discípulos que a todos fizessem sentar em grupos sobre a relva verde.

40 Sentaram-se em turmas de cem e de cinqüenta.

41 Ele tomou os cinco pães e os dois peixes e, erguendo os olhos ao céu, deu graças e, partindo os pães, entregou-os aos discípulos para eles distribuírem; e repartiu por todos os dois peixes.

42 Todos comeram e se fartaram;

43 e recolheram doze cestos cheios de pedaços de pão e de peixe.

44 Os que comeram os pães, foram cinco mil.
