John 6:1-15

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 After these [things] Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee (that is, Tiberias).

2 And a large crowd was following him because they were observing the signs that he was doing on those who were sick.

3 So Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down there with his disciples.

4 (Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.)

5 {Then Jesus, when he looked up} and saw that a large crowd was coming to him, said to Philip, "Where can we buy bread so that these [people] can eat?"

6 (Now he said this to test him, because he knew what he was going to do.)

7 Philip replied to him, "Two hundred denarii [worth of] bread would not be enough for them, in order that each one could receive a little."

8 One of his disciples, Andrew the brother of Simon Peter, said to him,

9 "Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these for so many [people]?"

10 Jesus said, "Make the people recline." (Now [there] was a lot of grass in the place.) So the men reclined, approximately five thousand [in] number.

11 Then Jesus took the bread, and [after he] had given thanks, he distributed [it] to those who were reclining--likewise also of the fish, as much as they wanted.

12 And when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, "Gather the remaining fragments so that nothing is lost."

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

14 Now [when] the people saw the sign that he performed, they began to say, "This one is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world!"

15 Then Jesus, [because he] knew that they were about to come and seize him in order to make [him] king, withdrew again up the mountain [by] himself alone.

New International Version NIV

1 Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias),

2 and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs he had performed by healing the sick.

3 Then Jesus went up on a mountainside and sat down with his disciples.

4 The Jewish Passover Festival was near.

5 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?”

6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.

7 Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!”

8 Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up,

9 “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?”

10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there).

11 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.

12 When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.”

13 So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

14 After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

15 Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.
