30 And the twelve came together to Jesus; and they gave him an account of all the things they had done, and all they had been teaching.

31 And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.

32 And they went away in the boat to a waste place by themselves.

33 And the people saw them going, and a number of them, having knowledge who they were, went running there together on foot from all the towns, and got there before them.

34 And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

35 And at the end of the day, his disciples came to him and said, This place is waste land, and it is late:

36 Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.

37 But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?

38 And he said to them, How much bread have you? go and see. And when they had seen, they said, Five cakes of bread and two fishes.

39 And he made them all be seated in groups on the green grass.

40 And they were placed in groups, by hundreds and by fifties.

41 And he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing over them; and when the cakes were broken, he gave them to the disciples to put before the people; and he made division of the two fishes among them all.

42 And they all took of the food and had enough.

43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken bits and of the fishes.

44 And those who took of the bread were five thousand men.

30 使徒们回来聚集在耶稣跟前, 把他们所作和所教导的一切都报告给他听。

31 耶稣对他们说: "来, 你们自己到旷野去休息一下。"因为来往的人多, 他们甚至没有时间吃饭。

32 他们就悄悄地上了船, 到旷野去了。

33 群众看见他们走了, 有许多人认出了他们, 就从各城出来, 跑到那里, 比他们先赶到。

34 耶稣一下船, 看见一大群人, 就怜悯他们, 因为他们好像羊没有牧人一样, 就开始教导他们许多事。

35 天晚了, 门徒前来对他说: "这里是旷野的地方, 天已经很晚了,

36 请叫他们散开, 好让他们往周围的田舍村庄去, 自己买点东西吃。"

37 耶稣回答他们: "你们给他们吃吧! "门徒说: "要我们去买两百银币的饼给他们吃吗?"

38 耶稣说: "去看看你们有多少饼! "他们知道了, 就说: "五个饼, 还有两条鱼。"

39 耶稣吩咐他们叫大家分组坐在青草地上。

40 他们就一排一排地坐了下来, 有一百的, 有五十的。

41 耶稣拿起这五个饼、两条鱼, 望着天, 祝谢了; 然后把饼擘开, 递给门徒摆在群众面前, 又把两条鱼也分给群众。

42 大家都吃了, 并且吃饱了。

43 他们把剩下的零碎捡起来, 装满了十二个篮子,

44 吃饼的人, 男人就有五千。
