* When Jesus heard of it , he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart : and when the people had heard thereof , they followed him on foot out of the cities . * And Jesus went forth , and saw a great multitude , and was moved with compassion toward them , and he healed their sick . * And when it was evening , his disciples came to him , saying , This is a desert place , and the time is now past ; send the multitude away , that they may go into the villages , and buy themselves victuals . * But Jesus said unto them , They need not depart ; give ye them to eat . * And they say unto him , We have here but five loaves , and two fishes . * He said , Bring them hither to me . * And 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 . * And they did all eat , and were filled : and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full . * And they that had eaten were about five thousand men , beside women and children .
