1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. 3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we 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 pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him, 9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? 10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. 12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. 13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

1 Daarna het Jesus na die oorkant van die see van Galil,a, dit is, van Tib,rias, gegaan;

2 en 'n groot menigte het Hom gevolg, omdat hulle sy tekens gesien het wat Hy aan die siekes doen.

3 En Jesus het op die berg geklim en daar met sy dissipels gaan sit.

4 En die pasga, die fees van die Jode, was naby.

5 Toe Jesus dan sy oë opslaan en sien dat 'n groot menigte na Hom kom, sê Hy vir Filippus: Waarvandaan sal ons brood koop, sodat hierdie mense kan eet?

6 Maar Hy het dit gesê om hom op die proef te stel, want Hy het self geweet wat Hy wou doen.

7 Filippus antwoord Hom: Brood vir twee honderd pennings sal nie genoeg wees vir hulle, sodat elkeen van hulle 'n stukkie kan kry nie.

8 Een van sy dissipels, Andr,as, Simon Petrus se broer, sê vir Hom:

9 Hier is 'n seuntjie wat vyf garsbrode en twee vissies het, maar wat is dit vir so baie mense?

10 En Jesus sê: Laat die mense gaan sit. En daar was baie gras op die plek. Die manne het toe gaan sit, omtrent vyf duisend in getal.

11 En Jesus het die brode geneem, en nadat Hy gedank het, deel Hy dit uit aan die dissipels en die dissipels aan die wat daar sit; so ook van die vissies, soveel as hulle wou hê.

12 En nadat hulle versadig was, sê Hy vir sy dissipels: Maak die brokstukke bymekaar wat oorgeskiet het, sodat niks verlore gaan nie.

13 Hulle maak toe bymekaar en het twaalf mandjies gevul met brokstukke van die vyf garsbrode wat oorgeskiet het by die wat geëet het.

14 Toe die mense dan die teken sien wat Jesus gedoen het, sê hulle: Hy is waarlik die profeet wat in die wêreld sou kom.
