Luke 9:12-14

New American Standard Bible 1995

Five Thousand Fed

¹² Now the day ^[a]was ending, and the twelve came and said to Him, “Send the crowd away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and get ^[b]something to eat; for here we are in a desolate place.” ¹³ 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 perhaps we go and buy food for all these people.” ¹⁴ (For there were about five thousand men.) And He said to His disciples, “Have them ^[c]sit down to eat ^(A)in groups of about fifty each.”
