By this time it was late in the day, so his disciples came to him.“ This is a remote place,” they said,“ and it’s already very late.

And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said,“ This is a desolate place, and the hour is now late.

Late in the afternoon his disciples came to him and said,“ This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late.

When it grew late, his disciples approached him and said,“ This place is deserted, and it is already late.

And when it was already late, His disciples came up to Him and said,“ This place is secluded and it is already late;

When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said,“ This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late.

And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, The place is desert, and the day is now far spent;

When it was already late, His disciples approached Him and said,“ This place is a wilderness, and it is already late!

And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time[ is] far passed:

When it was already late, his disciples came to him and said,“ This is an isolated place and it is already very late.

When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him, and said,“ This place is deserted, and it is late in the day.

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.

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.

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.The people saw the sign that Jesus did. Then they began to say,“ This must be the Prophet who is supposed to come into the world.”But Jesus knew that they planned to come and force him to be their king. So he went away again to a mountain by himself.
