1 Afterward, Jesus crossed the sea of Galilee, also called of Tiberias;

2 and a great multitude followed him, because they had seen the miraculous cures which he had performed.

3 And Jesus went up on a mountain; where he sat down with his disciples.

4 Now the passover, the Jewish festival, was near.

5 Jesus, lifting up his eyes, and perceiving that a great multitude was flocking to him, said to Philip, Whence shall we buy bread to feed these people?

6 (This he said to try him; for he knew himself, what he was to do.)

7 Philip answered, Two hundred denarii would not purchase bread enough to afford every one a morsel.

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

9 Here is a boy who has five barley loaves, and two small fishes; but what are they among so many?

10 Jesus said, Make the men recline. Now, there was much grass in the place. So they reclined; in number about five thousand.

11 And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed them to those who had reclined. He gave them also of the fishes, as much as they would.

12 When they had eat sufficiently, he said to his disciples, Gather up the fragments which remain, that nothing be lost.

13 They, therefore, gathered, and with the fragments which the people had left of the five barley loaves, they filled twelve baskets.

14 When those men had seen the miracle which Jesus had wrought they said, This is certainly the prophet who comes into the world.
