John 6:5-13

5 Therefore Jesus, lifting up His eyes and seeing that a large crowd was coming to Him, said to ¹Philip, "Where are we to buy bread, so that these may eat?"

6 This He was saying to ²test him, for He Himself knew what He was intending to do.

7 ³Philip answered Him, "⁴Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, for everyone to receive a little."

8 One of His ⁵disciples, ⁶Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

9 "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two ⁷fish, but what are these for so many people?"

10 Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was ⁸much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about ⁹five thousand.

11 Jesus then took the loaves, and ¹⁰having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the ¹¹fish as much as they wanted.

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

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