John 6:1-24

1AfterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 1JesusG2424 wentG565 awayG565 to the otherG4008 sideG4008 of 2the SeaG2281 of GalileeG1056 (or 3TiberiasG5085). 2A largeG4183 crowdG3793 was followingG190 Him, becauseG3754 they were watchingG3708 the 45signsG4592 whichG3739 He was performingG4160 on thoseG3588 who were sickG770. 3But 6JesusG2424 wentG424 up on the mountainG3735, and thereG1563 He satG2521 with His disciplesG3101. 4NowG1161 7the PassoverG3957, the feastG1859 of the JewsG2453, was nearG1451. 5SoG3767 JesusG2424, after raisingG1869 His eyesG3788 and seeingG2300 that a largeG4183 crowdG3793 was comingG2064 to Him, saidG3004 to 8PhilipG5376, “WhereG4159 are we to buyG59 breadG740 soG2443 thatG2443 theseG3778 people may eatG2068?” 6But He was sayingG3004 thisG3778 only to 9testG3985 him, for He HimselfG846 knewG3609 whatG5101 He intendedG3195 to doG4160. 710PhilipG5376 answeredG611 Him, “11TwoG1250 hundredG1250 12denariiG1220 worth of breadG740 is not enoughG714 for them, for eachG1538 to receiveG2983 just a littleG1024!” 8OneG1520 of His 13disciplesG3101, 14AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’sG4074 brotherG80, saidG3004 to Him, 9“There is a boyG3808 hereG5602 whoG3739 hasG2192 fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740 and twoG1417 15fishG3795; but whatG5101 are theseG3778 for soG5118 manyG5118 people?” 10JesusG2424 saidG3004, “HaveG4160 the peopleG444 reclineG377 to eat.” NowG1161 there was 16plentyG4183 of grassG5528 in the placeG5117. SoG3767 the menG435 reclinedG377, aboutG5613 1718fiveG4000 thousandG4000 in numberG706. 11JesusG2424 thenG3767 tookG2983 the loavesG740, and 19after givingG2168 thanksG2168 He distributedG1239 them to thoseG3588 who were recliningG345; likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 of the 20fishG3795, as muchG3745 as they wantedG2309. 12And whenG5613 they had eatenG1705 their fillG1705, He saidG3004 to His 21disciplesG3101, “GatherG4863 upG4863 the leftoverG4052 piecesG2801 soG2443 thatG2443 nothingG3361G5100 will be lostG622.” 13SoG3767 they gatheredG4863 them upG4863, and filledG1072 twelveG1427 22basketsG2894 with piecesG2801 from the fiveG4002 barleyG2916 loavesG740 whichG3739 were leftG4052 overG4052 by thoseG3588 who had eatenG977. 14ThereforeG3767 when the peopleG444 sawG3708 the 23signG4592 whichG3739 He had performedG4160, they saidG3004, “ThisG3778 is trulyG230 the 24ProphetG4396 who is to comeG2064 into the worldG2889.”

15SoG3767 JesusG2424, awareG1097 that they 25intendedG3195 to comeG2064 and takeG726 Him by forceG726 26to makeG4160 Him kingG935, 27withdrewG402 againG3825 to 28the mountainG3735 by HimselfG846, aloneG3441.

16NowG1161 whenG5613 eveningG3798 cameG1096, His 29disciplesG3101 wentG2597 downG2597 to the seaG2281, 17and after gettingG1684 into a boatG4143, they started to crossG2064G4008 the seaG2281 30to CapernaumG2746. It had alreadyG2235 becomeG1096 darkG4653, and JesusG2424 had not yetG3768 comeG2064 to them. 18InG5037 additionG5037, the seaG2281 began gettingG1326 roughG1326, because a strongG3173 windG417 was blowingG4154. 19ThenG3767, when they had rowedG1643 aboutG5613 31twenty-fiveG1501G4002 orG2228 thirtyG5144 stadiaG4712, they sawG2334 JesusG2424 walkingG4043 on the seaG2281 and comingG1096 nearG1451 the boatG4143; and they wereG5399 frightenedG5399. 20But He saidG3004 to them, “It is I; 3233do not beG5399 afraidG5399.” 21SoG3767 they were willingG2309 to takeG2983 Him into the boatG4143, and immediatelyG2112 the boatG4143 was at the landG1093 to whichG3739 they were goingG5217.

22The nextG1887 dayG1887 34the crowdG3793 that stoodG2476 on the otherG4008 sideG4008 of the seaG2281 sawG3708 that there was noG3756 otherG243 smallG4142 boatG4142 thereG1563 exceptG1508 oneG1520, and that JesusG2424 35had not gottenG4897 intoG4897 the boatG4143 withG4897 His disciplesG3101, but that His disciplesG3101 had departedG565 aloneG3441. 23OtherG243 smallG4142 boatsG4142 cameG2064 from 36TiberiasG5085 nearG1451 to the placeG5117 whereG3699 they ateG2068 the breadG740 after the 37LordG2962 38had givenG2168 thanksG2168. 24SoG3767 whenG3753 the crowdG3793 sawG3708 that JesusG2424 was not thereG1563, norG3761 His disciplesG3101, they themselvesG846 gotG1684 into the smallG4142 boatsG4142 and 39cameG2064 to CapernaumG2746, lookingG2212 forG2212 JesusG2424.
