John 6:8-13

8 One of His ¹disciples, ²Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

9 "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two ³fish, but what are these for so many people?"

10 Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was ⁴much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about ⁵five thousand.

11 Jesus then took the loaves, and ⁶having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the ⁷fish as much as they wanted.

12 When they were filled, He said to His ⁸disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing * will be lost."

13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve ⁹baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
