17 And they say to him, We have not here, except five loaves and two fishes.

18 But he said, Bring them here to me.

19 And after commanding the multitudes to sit down on the grass, having taken the five loaves, and the two fishes, having looking up to heaven, he blessed. And having broken them in pieces, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the
