lining; likewise also of the fishes,
as much as they wished. [6:12]And when they were filled he said to his
disciples, Collect the fragments that remain over, that nothing may be
lost. [6:13]Then they collected, and filled twelve traveling-baskets
with the fragments of the five barley loaves which remained over to
those who had eaten.

3 [6:14]Then the men, seeing what a miracle Jesus had performed, said,
This is truly the prophet who was to come into the world. [6:15]And
Jesus knowing that they were about to come and take him by force to
make him a king, went up to the mountain himself alone.

4 [6:16]And when it was evening, his disciples went down to the lake,
[6:17] and entering into the ship were crossing the lake to Capernaum.
And it was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them, [6:18]and the lake
was made rough by a great wind blowing. [6:19]Then having gone about
twenty-five or thirty stadiums [3 or 3 1-2 miles], they saw Jesus

[6:20]But he said to them, It is I; be not afraid. [6:21] Then they
willingly took him into the ship, and immediately the ship was at the
land to which they were going.

neither his disciples, they went into the ships and came to Capernaum,
seeking Jesus. [6:25]And finding him on the other side of the lake they
said to him, Rabbi, when came you hither? [6:26]Jesus answered them and
said, I tell you most truly, you seek me not because you saw miracles,
but because you eat of the bread and were filled. [6:27]Work not for
the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal
life, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father
sealed.

2 [6:28]Then they said to him, What shall we do to perform the works of
God? [6:29]Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God; to
believe on him whom he has sent. [6:30]Then they said to him, What
miracle do you perform, that we may see and
