10 And the apostles having returned related to him whatever they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart into {a desert place of} a city called Bethsaida.

11 But the crowds knowing {it} followed him; and he received them and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those that had need of healing.

12 But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and {into} the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.

13 And he said to them, Give *ye them to eat. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless *we* should go and buy food for all this people;

14 for they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in companies by fifties.

15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16 And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven he blessed them, and broke and gave to the disciples to set before the crowd.

17 And they all ate and were filled; and there was taken up of what had remained over and above to them in fragments twelve hand-baskets.

10 使徒们回来， 把所作的事报告耶稣。他带着他们， 悄悄地退往伯赛大城去。

11 群众知道了， 也跟了去。他接待他们， 向他们讲论 神的国， 医好需要医治的人。

12 天将晚的时候， 十二门徒来到他跟前， 说： "请解散众人， 好让他们往周围的田舍村庄， 去找地方住， 找东西吃， 因为我们这里是旷野。"

13 他说： "你们给他们吃吧！ "他们说： "我们所有的， 不过是五个饼两条鱼， 除非去为这些人另买食物。"

14 原来男人就约有五千。他对门徒说： "叫他们一组一组地坐下， 每组约五十人。"

15 门徒就照他的话， 叫众人坐下。

16 耶稣拿起这五个饼， 两条鱼， 望着天， 祝谢了， 擘开递给门徒， 摆在众人面前。

17 他们都吃饱了， 把剩下的零碎拾起来， 装满了十二个篮子。
