13 A cette nouvelle, Jésus partit de là dans une barque, pour se retirer à l'écart dans un lieu désert; et la foule, l'ayant su, sortit des villes et le suivit à pied.

14 Quand il sortit de la barque, il vit une grande foule, et fut ému de compassion pour elle, et il guérit les malades.

15 Le soir étant venu, les disciples s'approchèrent de lui, et dirent: Ce lieu est désert, et l'heure est déjà avancée; renvoie la foule, afin qu'elle aille dans les villages, pour s'acheter des vivres.

16 Jésus leur répondit: Ils n'ont pas besoin de s'en aller; donnez-leur vous-mêmes à manger.

17 Mais ils lui dirent: Nous n'avons ici que cinq pains et deux poissons.

18 Et il dit: Apportez-les-moi.

19 Il fit asseoir la foule sur l'herbe, prit les cinq pains et les deux poissons, et, levant les yeux vers le ciel, il rendit grâces. Puis, il rompit les pains et les donna aux disciples, qui les distribuèrent à la foule.

20 Tous mangèrent et furent rassasiés, et l'on emporta douze paniers pleins des morceaux qui restaient.

21 Ceux qui avaient mangé étaient environ cinq mille hommes, sans les femmes et les enfants.

13 Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

14 And he came out and saw a great number of people and he had pity on them, and made well those of them who were ill.

15 And when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, This place is waste land, and the time is now past; send the people away so that they may go into the towns and get themselves food.

16 But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.

17 And they say to him, We have here but five cakes of bread and two fishes.

18 And he said, Give them to me.

19 And he gave orders for the people to be seated on the grass; and he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing, and made division of the food, and gave it to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

20 And they all took of the food and had enough: and they took up twelve baskets full of broken bits which were not used.

21 And those who had food were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
