13 When Jesus heard it, He withdrew from there by boat to a deserted place by Himself. And when the multitudes heard it, they followed Him on foot out of the cities.
14 And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.
15 And when it was evening, His disciples came to Him, saying, This is a deserted place, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.
16 But Jesus said to them, They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.
17 And they said to Him, We have here only five loaves and two fish.
18 He said, Bring them here to Me.
19 And He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
20 So they all ate and were filled, and they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments that remained.
21 Now those who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
13 Ouvindo o que havia ocorrido, Jesus retirou-se de barco em particular para um lugar deserto. As multidões, ao ouvirem falar disso, saíram das cidades e o seguiram a pé.
14 Quando Jesus saiu do barco e viu tão grande multidão, teve compaixão deles e curou os seus doentes.
15 Ao cair da tarde, os discípulos aproximaram-se dele e disseram: "Este é um lugar deserto, e já está ficando tarde. Manda embora a multidão para que possam ir aos povoados comprar comida".
16 Respondeu Jesus: "Eles não precisam ir. Dêem-lhes vocês algo para comer".
17 Eles lhe disseram: "Tudo o que temos aqui são cinco pães e dois peixes".
18 "Tragam-nos aqui para mim", disse ele.
19 E ordenou que a multidão se assentasse na grama. Tomando os cinco pães e os dois peixes e, olhando para o céu, deu graças e partiu os pães. Em seguida, deu-os aos discípulos, e estes à multidão.
20 Todos comeram e ficaram satisfeitos, e os discípulos recolheram doze cestos cheios de pedaços que sobraram.
21 Os que comeram foram cerca de cinco mil homens, sem contar mulheres e crianças.
