5Then, 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?”
6Now He said this to test him, for He Himself knew what He was about to do.
7Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be enough for them, so that each of them could receive a little.”
8One 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?”
10Then Jesus said, “Make the people recline.” Now there was plenty of grass in the place; so the men reclined, about five thousand in number.
11Then 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.
12So when they were full He says to His disciples, “Collect the leftover fragments so that nothing be wasted.”
13So they collected and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves that were left over from those who had eaten.
14Now 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.”
15So 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.
16Now as evening came on His disciples had gone down to the sea,
17and 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.
18Further, the sea was being agitated by a strong wind blowing.
