John 6:2-21 in American Standard Version (1901)

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they beheld the signs which he did on them that were sick.
3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 Now the passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
5 Jesus therefore lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude cometh unto him, saith unto Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred shillings’ worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes: but what are these among so many?
10 Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 Jesus therefore took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down; likewise also of the fishes as much as they would.
12 And when they were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which remain over, that nothing be lost.
13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which remained over unto them that had eaten.
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that cometh into the world.
15 Jesus therefore perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force, to make him king, withdrew again into the mountain himself alone.
16 And when evening came, his disciples went down unto the sea;
17 and they entered into a boat, and were going over the sea unto Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
18 And the sea was rising by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 When therefore they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the boat: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat: and straightway the boat was at the land whither they were going.

John 6:2-21 in God's Living Word

2 A great multitude was following Him, because they were seeing the signs that He was performing on those who were sick.
3 Jesus went up on a mountain side, and sat down with His disciples.
4 The Jewish Passover Feast was near.
5 Jesus looked up, and saw that a great multitude was coming to Him, so He asked Philip, “Where can we buy bread, so that these may eat?”
6 He said this to test him, for He knew what He would do.
7 Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread wouldn’t even be enough for everyone to receive a little!”
8 One of Jesus’ 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 is that among so many people?”
10 Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” There was plenty of grass there, so the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down. He did likewise with the fish, as much as they wanted.
12 When they were filled, He told His disciples, “Gather up the leftover pieces, so that nothing may be wasted.”
13 Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.
14 When the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15 When Jesus perceived that they meant to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He withdrew again to the mountain by Himself.
16 When evening came, Jesus’ disciples went down to the sea,
17 got into the boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not come to them.
18 The sea arose because a great wind was blowing.
19 When they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the boat. They were terrified,
20 but He told them, “It’s me. Don’t be afraid.”
21 Then they willingly took Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

John 6:2-21 in King James (Authorized) Version

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

John 6:2-21 in Translation for Translators

2 A large crowd of people kept following Jesus on land because they had been seeing the miracles he performed by healing sick people.
3 Jesus went up on the hillside and sat down with us disciples to teach us.
4 Then he looked up and saw a great crowd of people coming toward him.
5 He said to Philip, “Where will we buy food for all these people to eat?”
6 He asked this only to find out if Philip believed what Jesus could do, because Jesus already knew what he himself was going to do.
7 Philip replied to him, “ Even if we had the amount of money a man earns in eight months, that would not be enough to buy bread so that each person could have a little bit!”
8 Another one of us disciples, Andrew, who was Simon Peter's younger brother, said to Jesus,
9 “There is a boy here who has five small barley loaves and two cooked fish. But ◄they will not help much among so many people!/what good will that do among so many people?► RHQ”
10 Jesus said, “Tell the people to sit down!” There was plenty of grass there, so they all sat down comfortably. There were about five thousand men among the crowd .
11 Then Jesus took the small loaves and the fish and thanked God for them. Then he gave them to us, and we distributed the small loaves and the fish to all the people sitting on the ground. Because God caused the food to keep increasing, everyone ate as much as they wanted.
12 When everyone had all the food they wanted, he said to us disciples, “Gather up the pieces that are left over. Do not let anything be wasted!”
13 So we gathered up the pieces of the small loaves that were left over by those who had eaten. We filled twelve baskets with those pieces!
14 After the people saw that miracle that Jesus had performed, many of them started to say, “Surely this is the prophet like Moses that God promised to send to the world!”
15 So, because Jesus realized that they were about to come and seize him to make him their king, he left them again and went up into the hills by himself.
16 When it was evening, we disciples went down to Galilee Lake.
17 When it became dark and Jesus had still not joined us, we got into a boat and went across the lake towards Capernaum city.
18 A strong wind started to blow and caused the water ◄to become very rough/to have high waves►.
19 After we had rowed ◄three or four miles/five or six kilometers►, we saw Jesus coming near the boat; he was walking on the water! So we were terrified!
20 But he said to us, “Do not be afraid! It is I!”
21 We were glad to take him into the boat. As soon as we did that, the boat reached the shore where we were going!

2 And a great number of people went after him because they saw the signs which he did on those who were ill.
3 Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.
4 Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?
6 This he said, testing him: for he had no doubt what he himself would do.
7 Philip made answer, Bread to the value of two hundred pence would not be enough even to give everyone a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Jesus,
9 There is a boy here with five barley cakes and two fishes: but what is that among such a number?
10 Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.
11 Then 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.
12 And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.
13 So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.
14 And when the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, Truly, this is the prophet who is to come into the world.
15 Now 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.
16 When evening came the disciples went down to the sea;
17 And 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.
18 The sea was getting rough because of a strong wind which was blowing.
19 After 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.
20 But he said to them, It is I, have no fear.
21 Then they readily took him into the boat: and straight away the boat was at the land to which they were going.

2 and a great crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought upon the sick.
3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there sat with his disciples:
4 but the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Jesus then, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves that these may eat?
6 But this he said trying him, for he knew what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little portion.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,
9 There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fishes; but this, what is it for so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place: the men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed them to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would.
12 And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.
13 They gathered them therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten.
14 The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.
15 Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make him king, departed again to the mountain himself alone.
16 But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea,
17 and having gone on board ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not come to them,
18 and the sea was agitated by a strong wind blowing.
19 Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.
20 But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid.
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 Jesus therefore went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 Now the pasch, the festival day of the Jews, was near at hand.
5 When Jesus therefore had lifted up his eyes, and seen that a very great multitude cometh to him, he said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to try him; for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith to him:
9 There is a boy here that hath five barley loaves, and two fishes; but what are these among so many?

11 And Jesus took the loaves: and when he had given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down. In like manner also of the fishes, as much as they would.
12 And when they were filled, he said to his disciples: Gather up the fragments that remain, lest they be lost.
13 They gathered up therefore, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above to them that had eaten.
14 Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet, that is to come into the world.
15 Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force, and make him king, fled again into the mountain himself alone.
16 And when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea.
17 And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capharnaum; and it was now dark, and Jesus was not come unto them.
18 And the sea arose, by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 When they had rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship, and they were afraid.
20 But he saith to them: It is I; be not afraid.
21 They were willing therefore to take him into the ship; and presently the ship was at the land to which they were going.

4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread, that these people may eat?”

8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,
9 “There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they for so many?”
10 Then Jesus said, “Make the people to recline.” Now there was much grass in that place. Therefore the men reclined, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were reclining; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wished.
12 And when they were filled, He said to His disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments, so that nothing may be lost.”
13 Therefore they gathered them up, and they filled twelve baskets of fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15 Therefore Jesus, knowing that they were about to come and seize Him, that they might make Him king, withdrew to the mountain by Himself.
16 Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 and having entered into the boat, they were going across the sea to Capernaum. And darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come to them.
18 And the sea was agitated by a great blowing wind.
19 Therefore having rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were frightened.
20 But He said to them, “It is I AM; do not fear.”
21 Then they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat arrived at the land to which they were going.

John 6:2-21 in The New Testament with Commentary

2 And a huge crowd was following Him because they had seen His signs that He kept performing on the 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, raising His eyes and observing that a huge crowd was coming toward Him, Jesus says to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread so that these folks may eat?”
6 Now He said this to test him, for He Himself knew what He was about to do.
7 Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be enough for them, so that each of them could receive a little.”
8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to Him,
9 “There is a little boy here who has five loaves of barley bread and two small fish, but what are they for so many?”
10 Then Jesus said, “Make the people recline.” Now there was plenty of grass in the place; so the men reclined, about five thousand in number.
11 Then Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were reclining; so too with the fish, as much as they wanted.
12 So when they were full He says to His disciples, “Collect the leftover fragments so that nothing be wasted.”
13 So they collected and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves that were left over from those who had eaten.
14 Now then, having seen the miraculous sign that Jesus performed the men said, “This One really is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15 So Jesus, perceiving that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew up the mountain again by Himself, alone.
16 Now as evening came on His disciples had gone down to the sea,
17 and getting into the boat they started to go across the sea toward Capernaum. Well it had been dark for a while and Jesus had not come to them.
18 Further, the sea was being agitated by a strong wind blowing.
19 Then, after they had rowed some three or four miles, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat; and they were afraid.
20 But He said to them, “It is I; don't be afraid!”
21 Then they wanted to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

John 6:2-21 in Free Bible Version

2 A large crowd was following him, for they'd seen his miracles of healing.
3 Jesus went up a hill and sat down there with his disciples.
4 The time for the Jewish festival of the Passover was approaching.
5 When Jesus looked up, and saw a large crowd coming towards him, he asked Philip, “Where can we buy enough bread to feed all these people?”
6 He only asked this to see how Philip would respond, because Jesus already knew what he was going to do.
7 “Two hundred silver coins wouldn't buy enough bread to give everyone even just a little,” Philip replied.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up.
9 “There's a boy here who has five barley loaves and a couple of fish, but what good is that when there are so many people?”
10 “Have everybody sit down,” Jesus said. There was plenty of grass there, so they all sat down, the men numbering around five thousand.
11 Jesus took the bread, gave thanks, and had it handed out to the people as they sat there. Then he did the same with the fishes, making sure the people had as much as they wanted.
12 Once they were all full, he said to his disciples, “Collect what's left over so nothing is wasted.”
13 So they collected and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves the people had eaten.
14 When the people saw this miracle, they said, “Surely this is the Prophet who was to come into the world.”
15 Jesus realized that they were about to force him to become their king, so he left them and went up into the hills to be by himself.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
17 climbed into a boat, and headed across the water towards Capernaum. By now it was night and Jesus had not joined them yet.
18 A strong wind began blowing and the sea grew rough.
19 When they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, coming towards the boat. They were very frightened.
20 “Don't be afraid!” he told them. “It's me.”
21 Then they gladly took him into the boat, and immediately they reached the shore where they were going.

John 6:2-21 in Geneva Bible 1599

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they sawe his miracles, which hee did on them that were diseased.
3 Then Iesus went vp into a mountaine, and there he sate with his disciples.
4 Now the Passeouer, a feast of the Iewes, was neere.
5 Then Iesus lift vp his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude came vnto him, hee sayde vnto Philippe, Whence shall we buy breade, that these might eate?
6 (And this he sayde to prooue him: for hee himselfe knewe what he would doe.)
7 Philippe answered him, Two hundreth penie worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that euery one of them may take a litle.
8 Then saide vnto him one of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peters brother,
9 There is a little boy heere, which hath fiue barlie loaues, and two fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Iesus saide, Make ye people sit downe. (Nowe there was much grasse in that place.) Then the men sate downe in nomber, about fiue thousande.
11 And Iesus tooke the bread, and gaue thanks, and gaue to the disciples, and the disciples, to them that were set downe: and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 And when they were satisfied, he said vnto his disciples, Gather vp the broken meat which remaineth, that nothing be lost.
13 Then they gathered it together, and filled twelue baskets with the broken meat of the fiue barly loaues, which remained vnto them that had eaten.
14 Then the men, when they had seene the miracle that Iesus did, saide, This is of a trueth that Prophet that should come into the world.
15 When Iesus therfore perceiued that they would come, and take him to make him a King, hee departed againe into a mountaine himselfe alone.
16 When euen was nowe come, his disciples went downe vnto the sea,
17 And entred into a shippe, and went ouer the sea, towardes Capernaum: and nowe it was darke, and Iesus was not come to them.
18 And the Sea arose with a great winde that blewe.
19 And when they had rowed about fiue and twentie, or thirtie furlongs, they sawe Iesus walking on the sea, and drawing neere vnto the ship: so they were afraide.
20 But he said vnto them, It is I: be not afraid.
21 Then willingly they receiued him into the ship, and the ship was by and by at the lande, whither they went.

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When Jesus then lift up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17 and entered into a ship, and went over the sea towards Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought on the diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and sat there with his disciples.
4 And the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.
5 Jesus then lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great crowd was coming to him, saith to Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat?
6 But this he said to try him; for he himself knew what he was going to do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred denaries' worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that each one may take a tittle.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith to him,
9 There is a lad here, who hath five barley-loaves, and two small fishes; but what are they among so many?
10 Jesus said, Make the men lie down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men lay down, in number about five thousand.
11 Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed to those that were lying down; in like manner also of the fishes, as much as they desired.
12 And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain over, that nothing may be lost.
13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley-loaves, which remained over and above to those that had eaten.
14 The men therefore seeing the sign which he wrought, said, This is truly the prophet that was to come into the world.
15 Jesus therefore, knowing that they were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, withdrew again to the mountain alone.
16 But when evening came, his disciples went down to the lake,
17 and having gone on board a boat, were going over the lake to Capernaum. And darkness had overtaken them, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
18 And as a strong wind was blowing, the waves ran high.
19 When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the lake, and drawing near the boat; and they were afraid.
20 But he saith to them, It is I, be not afraid.
21 Then they were willing to receive him into the boat; and immediately the boat was at the land whither they were going.

2 A great crowd of people, however, followed him, because they saw the signs of his mission in his work amongst those who were sick.
3 Jesus went up the hill, and sat down there with his disciples.
4 It was near the time of the Jewish Festival of the Passover.
5 Looking up, and noticing that a great crowd was coming towards him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread for these people to eat?”
6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he meant to do.
7 “Even if we spent a years' wages on bread,” answered Philip, “it would not be enough for each of them to have a little.”
8 “There is a boy here,” said Andrew, another of his disciples, Simon Peter's brother,
9 “Who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what is that for so many?”
10 “Make the people sit down,” said Jesus. It was a grassy spot; so the people, who numbered about five thousand, sat down,
11 and then Jesus took the loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, distributed them to those who were sitting down; and the same with the fish, giving the people as much as they wanted.
12 When they were satisfied, Jesus said to his disciples, “Collect the broken pieces that are left, so that nothing may be wasted.”
13 The disciples did so, and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves, which were left after all had eaten.
14 When the people saw the signs which Jesus gave, they said, “This is certainly the prophet who was to come into the world.”
15 But Jesus, having discovered that they were intending to come and carry him off to make him king, went again up the hill, quite alone.
16 When evening fell, his disciples went down to the sea,
17 and, getting into a boat, began to cross to Capernaum. By this time darkness had set in, and Jesus had not yet come back to them;
18 the sea, too, was getting rough, for a strong wind was blowing.
19 When they had rowed three or four miles, they caught sight of him walking on the water and approaching the boat, and they were frightened.
20 But Jesus said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid!”
21 And after this they were glad to take him into the boat; and the boat at once arrived off the shore, for which they had been making.

4 Now the Judean Person from Praise festival of Pesac ·Passover· was at hand.

14 When therefore the people saw the sign which Yeshua did, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who comes into the world.”
15 Yeshua therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.
17 They entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Yeshua had not come to them.
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
19 When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Yeshua walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
20 But he said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

John 6:2-21 in Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

2 And a great multitude pursued him; for they saw the tokens that he did on them that were sick.
3 Therefore Jesus went into an hill, and sat there with his disciples.
4 And the pask was full nigh, a feast day of the Jews.
5 Therefore when Jesus had lifted up his eyes, and had seen, that a great multitude came to him, he saith to Philip, Whereof shall we buy loaves, that these men eat?
6 But he said this thing, tempting him; for he knew what he was to do.
7 Philip answered to him, The loaves of two hundred pence suffice not to them, that each man take a little what.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith to him,
9 A child is here, that hath five barley loaves and two fishes; but what be these among so many?
10 Therefore Jesus saith, Make them sit to or at the meat. And there was much hay in the place. And so men sat to or at the meat, as five thousand in number.
11 And Jesus took the five loaves, and when he had done thankings, he parted to the men that sat at the meat, and also of the fishes, as much as they would.
12 And when they were full-filled or ful filled, he said to his disciples, Gather ye the remnants that be left, that they perish not.
13 And so they gathered, and filled twelve coffins, of the remnants of the five barley loaves and two fishes, that left to them that had eaten.
14 Therefore those men, when they had seen the sign or the token, or miracle, that he had done, said, For this is verily the prophet, that is to come into the world.
15 And when Jesus had known, that they were to come to take him, and make him king, he flew or fled alone again into an hill.
16 And when eventide was come, his disciples went down to the sea.
17 And they went up into a boat, and they came over the sea into Capernaum. And darknesses were made then, and Jesus was not or had not come to them.
18 And for a great wind blew, the sea rose up.
19 Therefore when they had rowed as five and twenty furlongs or thirty, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and to be nigh the boat; and they dreaded.
20 And he said to them, I am; do not ye dread.
21 Therefore they would take him into the boat, and anon the boat was at the land, to which they went.

3 Therefore Jesus went into an hill (or And so Jesus went up onto a hill), and sat there with his disciples.
4 And the pask was full nigh, a feast day of the Jews. (And the Passover was very near, a Feast Day, or a Festival, for the Jews.)
5 Therefore when Jesus had lifted up his eyes, and had seen, that a great multitude came to him, he saith to Philip, Whereof shall we buy loaves, (so) that these men eat?

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith to him,
9 A child is here, that hath five barley loaves and two fishes; but what be these among so many?
10 Therefore Jesus saith, Make them sit to the meat. And there was much hay in the place. And so men sat to the meat, as five thousand in number. Therefore Jesus saith, Make ye men to sit at the meat. Forsooth there was much hay in the place. Therefore men sat at the meat, in number as five thousand. (And so Jesus said, Make them to sit down for the meal. And there was much hay in that place. And so the men sat down for the meal, five thousand in number.)
11 And Jesus took the five loaves, and when he had done thankings, he parted (them) to the men that sat to the meat or he parted to men sitting at the meat, and also of the fishes, as much as they would.

John 6 in Wycliffe Bible

John 6:2-21 in Young's Literal Translation

2 and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;
3 and Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples,
4 and the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews.
5 Jesus then having lifted up his eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, 'Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' —
6 and this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do.
7 Philip answered him, 'Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'
8 one of his disciples — Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter — saith to him,
9 'There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these — what are they to so many?'
10 And Jesus said, 'Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,
11 and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.
12 And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, 'Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'
13 they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.
14 The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said — 'This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;'
15 Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.
16 And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
17 and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,
18 the sea also — a great wind blowing — was being raised,
19 having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;
20 and he saith to them, 'I am he, be not afraid;'
21 they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.
