John 6:5–13

^5pLifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward him, Jesus said to ^qPhilip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” ⁶He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do. ^7rPhilip answered him, “Two hundred denarii¹ worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to get a little.” ⁸One of his disciples, ^sAndrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, ⁹“There is a boy here who has five ^tbarley loaves and two fish, but ^twhat are they for so many?” ¹⁰Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” ^uNow there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number. ¹¹Jesus then took the loaves, and ^vwhen he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated. So also the fish, as much as they wanted. ¹²And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.” ¹³So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves left by those who had eaten.
