14. Jesus got out of the boat, and when he saw the large crowd, his heart was filled with pity for them, and he healed those who were ill.

15. That evening his disciples came to him and said, “It is already very late, and this is a lonely place. Send the people away and let them go to the villages to buy food for themselves.”

16. “They don't have to leave,” answered Jesus. “You yourselves give them something to eat!”

17. “All we have here are five loaves and two fish,” they replied.

18. “Then bring them here to me,” Jesus said.
