14 For there were about five thousand men. Then He said to His disciples, “Make them sit down in groups of fifty.”

15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16 Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He ^ablessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.

17 So they all ate and were¹ filled, and twelve baskets of the leftover fragments were taken up by them.
