JESUS FEED 5,000

Matthew 14

   ¹⁶But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

   ¹⁷And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

   ¹⁸He said, Bring them hither to me.

   ¹⁹And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

   ²⁰And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

   ²¹And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

Mark 6

   ³⁶Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.

   ³⁷He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?

   ³⁸He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.

   ³⁹And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.

   ⁴⁰And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

   ⁴¹And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.

   ⁴²And they did all eat, and were filled.

   ⁴³And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.

   ⁴⁴And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.

John 6

   ¹After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.

   ²And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

   ³And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

   ⁴And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

   ⁵When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

   ⁶And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.

   ⁷Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

   ⁸One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,

   ⁹There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

   ¹⁰And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

   ¹¹And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.

   ¹²When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.

   ¹³Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.

   ¹⁴Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
