13 Jesus replied, “You give them something to eat.”They said to him, “We have five loaves of bread and two fish. Unless we go to buy food for all these people, that’s all we have.”
14 (There were about five thousand men.)Then he told his disciples, “Have them sit in groups of about fifty.”
15 So they did this.
16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, looked up to heaven, and blessed the food. He broke the loaves apart and kept giving them to the disciples to give to the crowd.
17 All of them ate as much as they wanted. When they picked up the leftover pieces, they filled twelve baskets.
18 Once when Jesus was praying privately and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”
19 They answered, “Some say you are John the Baptizer, others Elijah, and still others say that one of the prophets from long ago has come back to life.”
