1 AFTER these Jeshu went over the Sea of Galila of Tiberios,

2 and great multitudes went after him, because they had seen the signs which he wrought on the diseased.

3 And Jeshu ascended a mountain, and there sat with his disciples.

4 Now the feast of the petscha of the Jihudoyee drew nigh.

5 And Jeshu lifted up his eyes, and saw the great assembly which had come to him; and he said to Philipos, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

6 But this he said trying him; for he knew what he was about to do.

7 Philipos saith to him, Two hundred dinoreen of bread is not sufficient for them, that a little every one of them may take.

8 Saith to him one of his disciples, Andreas, brother of Shemun Kipha,

9 There is here a certain youth, who hath with him five cakes of barley and two fishes; but these what are they for these all?

10 Jeshu saith to them, Make all the men recline; for there was much herbage in that place. And the men reclined, in number five thousand.

11 And Jeshu took the bread, and blessed, and divided unto those who reclined, and likewise also of the fishes, as much as they willed.

12 And when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, Gather the fragments that abound, that nothing be lost;

13 and they gathered and filled twelve baskets of fragments, those which abounded unto them who had eaten of the five loaves of barley.

14 But those men, when they had seen the sign which Jeshu had wrought, said, Truly this is the Prophet that cometh into the world.
