31And He said to them, “Come, you yourselves privately, to a deserted place and rest a little.” For there were many coming and going, and they were not even finding opportunity to eat.
32And they went away to a deserted place in the boat privately.
33But the multitudes saw them going, and many recognized Him, and ran together there on foot from all the cities, and preceded them, and they came together to Him.
34And when He came out, Jesus saw a large crowd, and He had compassion on them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.
35And when it grew late, His disciples came to Him and said, “The place is deserted, and already the hour is late.
36Dismiss them, so that they may go into the surrounding farms and villages and may buy themselves food; for they have nothing to eat.”
37But answering, He said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said to Him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And when they found out they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39Then He gave orders for them all to recline in groups on the green grass.
