41 After he took the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and blessed the food. He broke the loaves apart and kept giving them to the disciples to give to the people. He also gave pieces of the two fish to everyone.
42 All of them ate as much as they wanted.
43 When they picked up the leftover pieces, they filled twelve baskets with bread and fish.
44 There were 5,000 men who had eaten the bread.
45 Jesus quickly made his disciples get into a boat and cross to Bethsaida ahead of him while he sent the people away.
46 After saying goodbye to them, he went up a mountain to pray.
47 When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
