10 The apostles, when they had returned, told him what things they had done.

He took them and withdrew apart to a desert region of a city called Bethsaida. 11 But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, spoke to them of God’s Kingdom, and he cured those who needed healing. 12 The day began to wear away; and the twelve came and said to him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms and lodge and get food, for we are here in a deserted place."

13 But he said to them, "You give them something to eat."

They said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people." 14 For they were about five thousand men.

He said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each." 15 They did so, and made them all sit down. 16 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude. 17 They ate and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.

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。
