John 6:2-14
2A largeG4183 crowdG3793 followedG190 Him, becauseG3754 they sawG3708 the 12signsG4592 whichG3739 He was performingG4160 on thoseG3588 who were sickG770. 3ThenG2532 3JesusG2424 wentG424 up on the mountainG3735, and thereG1563 He satG2521 downG2521 with His disciplesG3101. 4NowG1161 4the PassoverG3957, the feastG1859 of the JewsG2453, was nearG1451. 5ThereforeG3767 JesusG2424, liftingG1869 up His eyesG3788 and seeingG2300 that a largeG4183 crowdG3793 was comingG2064 to Him, saidG3004 to 5PhilipG5376, “WhereG4159 are we to buyG59 breadG740, soG3767 that theseG3778 may eatG2068?” 6ThisG3778 He was sayingG3004 to 6testG3985 him, for He HimselfG846 knewG3609 whatG5101 He was intendingG3195 to doG4160. 77PhilipG5376 answeredG611 Him, “8TwoG1250 hundredG1250 9denariiG1220 worth of breadG740 is not sufficientG714 for them, for everyoneG1538 to receiveG2983 a littleG1024.” 8OneG1520 of His 10disciplesG3101, 11AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’sG4074 brotherG80, saidG3004 to Him, 9“There is a ladG3808 hereG5602 whoG3739 hasG2192 fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740 and twoG1417 12fishG3795, but whatG5101 are theseG3778 for soG5118 manyG5118 peopleG5118?” 10JesusG2424 saidG3004, “HaveG4160 the peopleG444 13sitG377 downG377.” NowG1161 there was 14muchG4183 grassG5528 in the placeG5117. SoG3767 the menG435 15satG377 downG377, in numberG706 aboutG5613 16fiveG4000 thousandG4000. 11JesusG2424 thenG3767 tookG2983 the loavesG740, and 17having givenG2168 thanksG2168, He distributedG1239 to thoseG3588 who were seatedG345; likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 of the 18fishG3795 as muchG3745 as they wantedG2309. 12WhenG5613 they were filledG1705, He saidG3004 to His 19disciplesG3101, “GatherG4863 up the leftoverG4052 fragmentsG2801 soG2443 that nothingG3361G5100 will be lostG622.” 13SoG3767 they gatheredG4863 them up, and filledG1072 twelveG1427 20basketsG2894 with fragmentsG2801 from the fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740 whichG3739 were leftG4052 overG4052 by thoseG3588 who had eatenG977. 14ThereforeG3767 when the peopleG444 sawG3708 the 21signG4592 whichG3739 He had performedG4160, they saidG3004, “ThisG3778 is trulyG230 the 22ProphetG4396 who is to comeG2064 into the worldG2889.”
