1 A fter these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),

After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee, of Tiberias,

2 a nd there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

and a great crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he wrought upon the sick.

3 a nd Jesus went up to the mount, and he was there sitting with his disciples,

And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there sat with his disciples:

4 a nd the passover was nigh, the feast of the Jews.

but the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

5 J esus then having lifted up eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, `Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' --

Jesus then, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves that these may eat?

6 a nd this he said, trying him, for he himself had known what he was about to do.

But this he said trying him, for he knew what he was going to do.

7 P hilip answered him, `Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'

Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little.

8 o ne of his disciples -- Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter -- saith to him,

One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,

9 ` There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?'

There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fishes; but this, what is it for so many?

10 A nd Jesus said, `Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,

Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place: the men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand.

11 a nd Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.

And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would.

12 A nd when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, `Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'

And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.

13 t hey gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.

They gathered therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten.

14 T he men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said -- `This is truly the Prophet, who is coming to the world;'

The men therefore, having seen the sign which Jesus had done, said, This is truly the prophet which is coming into the world.

15 J esus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make king, departed again to the mountain himself alone.

16 A nd when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea,

17 a nd having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

and having gone on board ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not come to them,

18 t he sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised,

and the sea was agitated by a strong wind blowing.

19 h aving pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;

Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.

20 a nd he saith to them, `I am, be not afraid;'

But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid.

21 t hey were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.

They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.

22 O n the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one -- that into which his disciples entered -- and that Jesus went not in with his disciples into the little boat, but his disciples went away alone,

On the morrow the crowd which stood on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little ship there except that into which his disciples had got, and that Jesus had not gone with his disciples into the ship, but his disciples had gone away alone;

23 ( and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),

(but other little ships out of Tiberias came near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks;)

24 w hen therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;

when therefore the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they got into the ships, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

25 a nd having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, `Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?'

And having found him the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when art thou arrived here?

26 J esus answered them and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied;

Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me not because ye have seen signs, but because ye have eaten of the loaves and been filled.

28 T hey said therefore unto him, `What may we do that we may work the works of God?'

They said therefore to him, What should we do that we may work the works of God?

29 J esus answered and said to them, `This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.'

Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he has sent.

30 T hey said therefore to him, `What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?

They said therefore to him, What sign then doest thou that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?

And they said, Is not this Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then does he say, I am come down out of heaven?

The Jews therefore contended among themselves, saying, How can he give us this flesh to eat?
