Luke 9:10-17

101When the apostles returned, they gave an account to Him of all that they had done. 2Taking them with Him, He withdrew by Himself to a city called 3Bethsaida. 11But the crowds were aware of this and followed Him; and welcoming them, He began speaking to them about the kingdom of God and curing those who had need of healing.

12Now the day 4was ending, and the twelve came and said to Him, “Send the crowd away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and get 5something to eat; for here we are in a desolate place.” 13But He said to them, “You give them something to eat!” And they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we go and buy food for all these people.” 14(For there were about five thousand men.) And He said to His disciples, “Have them 6sit down to eat 7in groups of about fifty each.” 15They did so, and had them all 8sit down. 16Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them, and broke them, and kept giving them to the disciples to set before the 9people. 17And they all ate and were satisfied; and 10the broken pieces which they had left over were picked up, twelve 11baskets full.
