1 这些事以后, 耶稣渡过加利利海, 就是提比里亚海。
2 有一大群人, 因为看见了他在病人身上所行的神迹, 就跟随了他。
3 耶稣上了山, 同门徒坐在那里。
4 那时犹太人的逾越节近了。
5 耶稣举目观看, 见一大群人向他走过来, 就对腓力说: "我们从哪里买饼给这些人吃呢?"
6 他说这话, 是要试验腓力, 因他自己早已知道要怎样作。
7 腓力回答: "就算二百银币买的饼, 每人分一点, 也是不够的。"
8 有一个门徒, 就是西门.彼得的弟弟安得烈, 对耶稣说:
9 "这里有个小孩子, 带着五个大麦饼、两条鱼; 只是分给这么多人, 有什么用呢?"
10 耶稣吩咐他们: "你们叫众人坐下。"原来那地方的草很多, 众人就坐下, 单是男人的数目约有五千。
11 耶稣拿起饼来, 祝谢了, 就分给坐着的人; 分鱼也是这样, 都是随着他们所要的。
12 他们吃饱了之后, 耶稣对门徒说: "把剩下的零碎收拾起来, 免得浪费。"
13 门徒就把众人吃剩那五个大麦饼的零碎收拾起来, 装满了十二个篮子。
14 众人看见耶稣所行的神迹, 就说: "这真是那要到世上来的先知。"
1 After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed him, because they beheld the signs which he did on them that were sick. 3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4 Now the passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. 5 Jesus therefore lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude cometh unto him, saith unto Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat? 6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip answered him, Two hundred shillings’ worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him, 9 There is a lad here, who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes: but what are these among so many? 10 Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 Jesus therefore took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down; likewise also of the fishes as much as they would. 12 And when they were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which remain over, that nothing be lost. 13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which remained over unto them that had eaten. 14 When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that cometh into the world.
