37 Jesus replied, do you your selves give them something to eat, shall we go then, said they, to purchase bread, to the value of two hundred denarii, for them to eat? 38 go see, said he, how many loaves you have: and having examin'd, they told him, five, and two fishes. 39 then he order'd the people to sit down in distinct companies upon the green grass. 40 and they sat down in several divisions, some consisting of an hundred, and some of fifty. 41 Jesus then having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, look'd up to heaven and gave thanks; then breaking the loaves, he gave them to his disciples to distribute among the people: for whom he likewise divided the two fishes. 42 so that they all eat a sufficient share, 43 though the fragments of bread they took up, with what remain'd of the fishes, amounted to twelve baskets full; 44 the company that were entertain'd being about five thousand men.
