10. And the emissaries, when they had returned, related to Him all that they had done. And He took them and they withdrew by themselves to a city called Bĕyth Tsaiḏa.
11. And when the crowds knew it, they followed Him. And having received them, He was speaking to them about the reign of Elohim, and healed those who had need of healing.
12. And as the day began to decline, the twelve came and said to Him, “Send the crowd away, that going into the surrounding villages and country, they might lodge and get food, because here we are in a lonely place.”
13. But He said to them, “You give them to eat.” And they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fishes, unless we go and buy food for all these people.”
14. For there were about five thousand men. And He said to His taught ones, “Make them sit down in groups of fifty.”
15. And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16. And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, He blessed and broke them, and gave them to the taught ones to set before the crowd.
17. So they all ate and were satisfied, and twelve baskets of the broken pieces were picked up by them.
18. And it came to be, as He was alone praying, the taught ones were with Him, and He asked them, saying, “Who do the crowds say that I am?”
19. And they answering, said, “Yoḥanan the Immerser, but others Ěliyahu, and others say that one of the old prophets has risen up.”
20. And He said to them, “And you, who do you say I am?” And Kĕpha answering, said, “The Messiah of Elohim.”
21. And strictly warning them, He commanded them to say this to no one,
22. saying, “The Son of Aḏam has to suffer much, and to be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and to be killed, and to be raised the third day.”
23. And He said to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his stake daily, and follow Me.
