6 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

30The apostles now rejoined Jesus and reported to him all that they had done and taught. The Feeding of the Five Thousand Mk.6.30-44 (Bethsaida) | Mt.14.13-21 | Lk.9.10-17 | Jn.6.1-14Καὶ συνάγονται οἱ ἀπόστολοι πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν, καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν αὐτῷ πάντα ὁσα ἐποίησαν καὶ ὁσα ἐδίδαξαν.
31He said to them, 'Come with me, by yourselves, to some lonely place where you can rest quietly.' (For they had no leisure even to eat, so many were coming and going.) καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, Δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοὶ κατ' ἰδίαν εἰς ἐρημον τόπον καὶ ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον. ἦσαν γὰρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καὶ οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί, καὶ οὐδὲ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν.
32Accordingly, they set off privately by boat for a lonely place.  καὶ ἀπῆλθον ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ εἰς ἐρημον τόπον κατ' ἰδίαν.
33But many saw them leave and recognized them, and came round by land, hurrying from all the towns towards the place, and arrived there first.  καὶ εἶδον αὐτοὺς ὑπάγοντας καὶ ἐπέγνωσαν πολλοί, καὶ πεζῇ ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων συνέδραμον ἐκεῖ καὶ προῆλθον αὐτούς.
34When he came ashore, he saw a great crowd; and his heart went out to them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he had much to teach them. καὶ ἐξελθὼν εἶδεν πολὺν ὀχλον, καὶ ἐσπλαγχνίσθη ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ὅτι ἦσαν ὡς πρόβατα μὴ ἐχοντα ποιμένα, καὶ ἠρξατο διδάσκειν αὐτοὺς πολλά.
35As the day wore on, his disciples approached him and said, 'This is a lonely place and it is getting very late;  Καὶ ἠδη ὡρας πολλῆς γενομένης προσελθόντες αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἐλεγον ὅτι Ἔρημός ἐστιν ὁ τόπος, καὶ ἠδη ὡρα πολλή·
36send the people off to the farms and villages round about, to buy themselves something to eat.'  ἀπόλυσον αὐτούς, ἵνα ἀπελθόντες εἰς τοὺς κύκλῳ ἀγροὺς καὶ κώμας ἀγοράσωσιν ἑαυτοῖς τί φάγωσιν.
37'Give them something to eat yourselves', he answered.  ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Δότε αὐτοῖς ὑμεῖς φαγεῖν. καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Ἀπελθόντες ἀγοράσωμεν δηναρίων διακοσίων ἀρτους καὶ δώσομεν αὐτοῖς φαγεῖν;
38They replied, 'Are we to go and spend twenty pounds Literally: 200 denarii. on bread to give them a meal?' 'How many loaves have you?' he asked; 'go and see.' They found out and told him, 'Five, and two fishes also.' ὁ δὲ λέγει αὐτοῖς, Πόσους ἀρτους ἐχετὲ ὑπάγετε ἰδετε. καὶ γνόντες λέγουσιν, Πέντε, καὶ δύο ἰχθύας.
39He ordered them to make the people sit down in groups on the green grass,  καὶ ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλῖναι πάντας συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ.
40and they sat down in rows, a hundred rows of fifty each.  καὶ ἀνέπεσαν πρασιαὶ πρασιαὶ κατὰ ἑκατὸν καὶ κατὰ πεντήκοντα.
41Then, taking the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples to distribute. καὶ λαβὼν τοὺς πέντε ἀρτους καὶ τοὺς δύο ἰχθύας ἀναβλέψας εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν εὐλόγησεν καὶ κατέκλασεν τοὺς ἀρτους καὶ ἐδίδου τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα παρατιθῶσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ τοὺς δύο ἰχθύας ἐμέρισεν πᾶσιν.
42He also divided the two fishes among them.  καὶ ἐφαγον πάντες καὶ ἐχορτάσθησαν·
43They all ate to their hearts' content; and twelve great basketfuls of scraps were picked up, with what was left of the fish.  καὶ ἦραν κλάσματα δώδεκα κοφίνων πληρώματα καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἰχθύων.
44Those who ate the loaves numbered five thousand men.
 καὶ ἦσαν οἱ φαγόντες τοὺς ἀρτους πεντακισχίλιοι ἀνδρες.
