Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

John 6
⁹ "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these for so many people?"
¹⁰ Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
¹¹ Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the fish as much as they wanted.
¹² When they were filled, He *said to His disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing will be lost."
¹³ So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
¹⁴ Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world."
¹⁵ So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself alone.
¹⁶ Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
¹⁷ and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
¹⁸ The sea began to be stirred up because a strong wind was blowing.
¹⁹ Then, when they had rowed about three or four miles, they *saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were frightened.
