Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

13

Now when Yeshua heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat, to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.

14

Yeshua went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them, and healed their sick.

15

When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”

16

But Yeshua said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

17

They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”

18

He said, “Bring them here to me.”

19

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, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave to the multitudes.

20

They all ate, and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.

21

Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
