Matthew 14:19-22

19Then he ordered the people to sit down on the grass. After he took the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and blessed the food. He broke the loaves apart, gave them to the disciples, and they gave them to the people.

20All of them ate as much as they wanted. When they picked up the leftover pieces, they filled twelve baskets.

21About five thousand men had eaten. (This number does not include the women and children who had eaten.)

22Jesus quickly made his disciples get into a boat and cross to the other side ahead of him while he sent the people away.
