12 And the day began to decline, and the Twelve having come near, said to Him, "Let away the multitude, that having gone into the surrounding villages and the fields, they may lodge and may find provision, because here we are in a desolate place." 13 And He said to them, "You give them to eat"; and they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fishes: except, having gone, we may buy food for all this people"; 14 for they were about five thousand men. And He said to His disciples, "Cause them to recline in companies, in each fifty"; 15 and they did so, and made all to recline; 16 and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the sky, He blessed them, and broke, and was giving to the disciples to set before the multitude; 17 and they ate, and were all filled, and there was taken up what was over to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
