30 Ja apostolit kokoontuivat Jeesuksen tykö ja kertoivat hänelle kaikki, mitä olivat tehneet ja mitä olivat opettaneet.

32 Ja he lähtivät venheellä autioon paikkaan, yksinäisyyteen.

33 Ja he näkivät heidän lähtevän, ja monet saivat siitä tiedon ja riensivät sinne jalkaisin kaikista kaupungeista ja saapuivat ennen heitä.

34 Ja astuessaan maihin hän näki paljon kansaa, ja hänen kävi heitä sääliksi, koska he olivat niinkuin lampaat, joilla ei ole paimenta, ja hän rupesi opettamaan heille moninaisia.

39 Niin hän määräsi heille, että kaikkien oli asetuttava ruokakunnittain vihantaan ruohikkoon.

40 Ja he laskeutuivat ryhmä ryhmän viereen, toisiin sata, toisiin viisikymmentä.

41 Ja hän otti ne viisi leipää ja kaksi kalaa, katsoi ylös taivaaseen ja siunasi ja mursi leivät ja antoi ne opetuslapsilleen kansan eteen pantaviksi; myöskin ne kaksi kalaa hän jakoi kaikille.

42 Ja kaikki söivät ja tulivat ravituiksi.

43 Sitten he keräsivät palaset, kaksitoista täyttä vakallista, ja tähteet kaloista.

44 Ja niitä, jotka olivat syöneet näitä leipiä, oli viisituhatta miestä.

30 And the apostles are gathered together unto Jesus, and they told him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,

31 and he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart to a desert place, and rest a little, for those coming and those going were many, and not even to eat had they opportunity,

32 and they went away to a desert place, in the boat, by themselves.

33 And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognised him, and by land from all the cities they ran thither, and went before them, and came together to him,

34 and having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, that they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began to teach many things.

35 And now the hour being advanced, his disciples having come near to him, say, -- The place is desolate, and the hour is now advanced,

36 let them away, that, having gone away to the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy to themselves loaves, for what they may eat they have not.

37 And he answering said to them, Give ye them to eat, and they say to him, Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denaries worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?

38 And he saith to them, How many loaves have ye? go and see; and having known, they say, Five, and two fishes.

39 And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon the green grass,

40 and they sat down in squares, by hundreds, and by fifties.

41 And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and was giving to his disciples, that they may set before them, and the two fishes divided he to all,

42 and they did all eat, and were filled,

43 and they took up of broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full, and of the fishes,

44 and those eating of the loaves were about five thousand men.
