John 6 : 5 - 14

Chapter 6

5Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?"
6But this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.
7Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little."
8One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,
9"There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?"
10Then Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.
12So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost."
13Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
14Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world."


And Glory be to God forever.
