Matthew 14:16-23 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

16. But יהושע said to them, “They do not need to go away, give them to eat yourselves.”

17. And they said to Him, “We have here only five loaves and two fish.”

18. And He said, “Bring them here to Me.”

19. And commanding the crowds to sit down on the grass, and taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the taught ones. And the taught ones gave to the crowds,

20. and all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up the pieces left over – twelve baskets, filled.

21. And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

22. And immediately יהושע made His taught ones enter into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

23. And having dismissed the crowds, He went up to the mountain by Himself to pray. And when evening had come, He was alone there.
