John - ch 6 v 1 - 20
- After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is `the sea' of Tiberias.
- And a great multitude followed him, because they beheld the signs which he did on them that were sick.
- And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
- Now the passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
- Jesus therefore lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude cometh unto him, saith unto Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat?
- And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
- Philip answered him, Two hundred shillings' worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little.
- One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
- There is a lad here, who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes: but what are these among so many?
- Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
- Jesus therefore took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down; likewise also of the fishes as much as they would.
- And when they were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which remain over, that nothing be lost.
- So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which remained over unto them that had eaten.
- When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that cometh into the world.
- Jesus therefore perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force, to make him king, withdrew again into the mountain himself alone.
- And when evening came, his disciples went down unto the sea;
- and they entered into a boat, and were going over the sea unto Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
- And the sea was rising by reason of a great wind that blew.
- When therefore they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the boat: and they were afraid.
- But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
