John 6:7-21

⁷Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little portion.

⁸One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,

⁹There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fishes; but this, what is it for so many?

¹⁰And 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.

¹¹And 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.

¹²And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.

¹³They 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.

¹⁴The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.

¹⁵Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make him king, departed again to the mountain himself alone.

¹⁶But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea,

¹⁷and 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,

¹⁸and the sea was agitated by a strong wind blowing.

¹⁹Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.

²⁰But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid.

²¹They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.
