¹¹ Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed ^[a]to the disciples and the disciples to the reclining people; so also [He did] with the fish, as much as they wanted.

¹² When they had all had enough, He said to His disciples, Gather up now the fragments (the broken pieces that are left over), so that nothing may be lost and wasted.
