John 6:11-21

¹¹Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.

¹²And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.

¹³So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.

¹⁴And when the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, Truly, this is the prophet who is to come into the world.

¹⁵Now when Jesus saw that the people were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, he went away again up the mountain by himself.

¹⁶When evening came the disciples went down to the sea;

¹⁷And they took a boat and went across the sea in the direction of Capernaum. By then it was dark and still Jesus had not come to them.

¹⁸The sea was getting rough because of a strong wind which was blowing.

¹⁹After they had gone three or four miles they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near to the boat; and they had great fear.

²⁰But he said to them, It is I, have no fear.

²¹Then they readily took him into the boat: and straight away the boat was at the land to which they were going.
