Matthew  14: 15-21

 
 

That evening His disciples came to Him and said, “It is already very late, and this is a lonely place.  Send the people away that let them go to the villages to buy food for themselves.”

“They don’t have to leave,” answered Jesus. “ You yourselves give them something to eat!”

“Then we have here are five laves and two fish,” they replied.

“Then bring them here to me,” Jesus said.  He ordered the people to sit down on the grass; then he took the five loaves and the tow fish, looked up to heaven, and gave thanks to God.  He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

Everyone ate and had enough.  Then the disciples took up twelve baskets full of what was left over.  Then number of men who ate was about five thousand, not counting the women and children.
