Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward him. So he said to Philip,“ Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”He asked this only to test Philip. He already knew what he was going to do.Philip answered him,“ Suppose we were able to buy enough bread for each person to have just a bite. That would take more than half a year’s pay!”Another of his disciples spoke up. It was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. He said,“ Here is a boy with five small loaves of barley bread. He also has two small fish. But how far will that go in such a large crowd?”Jesus said,“ Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down. About 5,000 men were there.Then Jesus took the loaves and gave thanks. He handed out the bread to those who were seated. He gave them as much as they wanted. And he did the same with the fish.When all of them had enough to eat, Jesus spoke to his disciples.“ Gather the leftover pieces,” he said.“ Don’t waste anything.”So they gathered what was left over from the five barley loaves. They filled 12 baskets with the pieces left by those who had eaten.

“ I feel deep concern for these people. They have already been with me three days. They don’t have anything to eat.If I send them away hungry, they will become too weak on their way home. Some of them have come from far away.”His disciples answered him.“ There is nothing here,” they said.“ Where can anyone get enough bread to feed them?”“ How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.“ Seven,” they replied.He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. He took the seven loaves and gave thanks to God. Then he broke them and gave them to his disciples. They passed the pieces of bread around to the people.The disciples also had a few small fish. Jesus gave thanks for them too. He told the disciples to pass them around.The people ate and were satisfied. After that, the disciples picked up seven baskets of leftover pieces.About 4,000 people were there. After Jesus sent them away,

They left the crowd behind. And they took him along in a boat, just as he was. There were also other boats with him.

Because of the crowd, Jesus told his disciples to get a small boat ready for him. This would keep the people from crowding him.

The disciples returned. They told Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him. They went off by themselves to a town called Bethsaida.But the crowds learned about it and followed Jesus. He welcomed them and spoke to them about God’s kingdom. He also healed those who needed to be healed.Late in the afternoon the 12 disciples came to him. They said,“ Send the crowd away. They can go to the nearby villages and countryside. There they can find food and a place to stay. There is nothing here.”Jesus replied,“ You give them something to eat.” The disciples answered,“ We have only five loaves of bread and two fish. We would have to go and buy food for all this crowd.”About 5,000 men were there. But Jesus said to his disciples,“ Have them sit down in groups of about 50 each.”The disciples did so, and everyone sat down.Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and gave thanks. He broke them into pieces. Then he gave them to the disciples to give to the people.All of them ate and were satisfied. The disciples picked up 12 baskets of leftover pieces.

Jesus heard what had happened to John. He wanted to be alone. So he went in a boat to a quiet place. The crowds heard about this. They followed him on foot from the towns.When Jesus came ashore, he saw a large crowd. He felt deep concern for them. He healed their sick people.When it was almost evening, the disciples came to him.“ There is nothing here,” they said.“ It’s already getting late. Send the crowds away. They can go and buy some food in the villages.”Jesus replied,“ They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”“ We have only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.“ Bring them here to me,” he said.Then Jesus directed the people to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and gave thanks. He broke the loaves into pieces. Then he gave them to the disciples. And the disciples gave them to the people.All of them ate and were satisfied. The disciples picked up 12 baskets of leftover pieces.The number of men who ate was about 5,000. Women and children also ate.

Right away Jesus made his disciples get into the boat. He had them go on ahead of him to Bethsaida. Then he sent the crowd away.
