But what are they among so many people?\u201d 10 Jesus said, \u201cMake the people sit down.\u201d Now there was a great deal of grass in the place; so they sat down, about five thousand in all. 11 Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted. 12 When they were satisfied, he told his disciples, \u201cGather up the fragments left over, so that nothing may be lost.\u201d 13 So they gathered them up, and from the fragments of the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten, they filled twelve baskets. 14 When the people saw the sign that he had done, they began to say, \u201cThis is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world.\u201d<br \/>\n15 When Jesus realized that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain by himself.<br \/>\n<font>From the <a target='_blank' href='http:\/\/www.nrsv.net'>New Revised Standard Version<\/a>.
