John 6:1–14 (ESV)
1: After this Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.
2: And a large crowd was following him, because they saw the signs that he was doing on the sick.
3: Jesus went up on the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples.
4: Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
5: Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?”
6: He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
7: Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to get a little.”
8: One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,
9: “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are they for so many?”
10: Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number.
11: Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated. So also the fish, as much as they wanted.
12: And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.”
13: So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten.
14: When the people saw the sign that he had done, they said, “This is indeed the Prophet who is to come into the world!”
