37. But He answered, “You give them something to eat.”They said to Him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?”
38. He said to them, “How many loaves have you? Go and see.”When they found out, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39. Then He commanded them to make everyone sit down by companies on the green grass.
40. So they sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
41. When He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them. And He divided the two fish among them all.
42. They all ate and were filled.
43. And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments and of the fish.
44. Those who ate of the loaves were about five thousand men.
