John 6:5-14

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.
