006:034 So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart
was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which
have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.
006:035 By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said,
"This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:
006:036 send them away that they may go to the farms and villages near
here and buy themselves something to eat."
006:037 "Give them food yourselves," He replied. "Are we," they asked, "to go and buy two hundred shillings' worth of bread and give them food?"
006:038 "How many loaves have you?" He inquired; "go and see."
So they found out, and said, "Five; and a couple of fish."
006:039 So He directed them to make all sit down in companies on
the green grass.
006:040 And they sat down in rows of hundreds and of fifties.
006:041 Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and lifting His eyes to Heaven He blessed the food. Then He broke the loaves into portions which He went on handing to the disciples to distribute; giving pieces also of the two fish to them all.
006:042 All ate and were fully satisfied.
006:043 And they carried away broken portions enough to fill twelve baskets, besides pieces of the fish.
