Mark 6:38-44

Holman Christian Standard Bible

³⁸ And He asked them, “How many loaves do you have? Go look.”

When they found out they said, “Five, and two fish.”

³⁹ Then He instructed them to have all the people sit down^[a] in groups on the green grass. ⁴⁰ So they sat down in ranks of hundreds and fifties. ⁴¹ Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke the loaves. He kept giving them to His disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all. ⁴² Everyone ate and was filled.^{(A) 43} Then they picked up 12 baskets full of pieces of bread and fish. ⁴⁴ Now those who ate the loaves were 5,000 men.
