Luke 9:12-14

Christian Standard Bible

¹² Late in the day,^(A) the Twelve approached and said to him, “Send the crowd away,^(B) so that they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside to find food and lodging, because we are in a deserted place here.”

¹³ “You give them something to eat,” he told them.

“We have no more than five loaves^(C) and two fish,” they said, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.” ¹⁴ (For about five thousand men were there.)

Then he told his disciples, “Have them sit down^[a] in groups of about fifty each.”
