Luke:9:10-17
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the apostles ,
when they had returned ,
told Him all that they had done .
Then He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida .
*
But when the multitudes knew it ,
they followed Him ;
and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God ,
and healed those who had need of healing .
*
When the day began to wear away ,
the twelve came and said to Him , "
Send the multitude away ,
that they may go into the surrounding towns and country ,
and lodge and get provisions ;
for we are in a deserted place here ."
*
But He said to them , "
You give them something to eat ."
And they said , "
We have no more than five loaves and two fish ,
unless we go and buy food for all these people ."
*
For there were about five thousand men .
Then He said to His disciples , "
Make them sit down in groups of fifty ."
*
And they did so ,
and made them all sit down .
*
Then He took the five loaves and the two fish ,
and looking up to heaven ,
He blessed and broke them ,
and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude .
*
So they all ate and were filled ,
and twelve baskets of the leftover fragments were taken up by them .
