Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and blessed them. Then he broke the loaves in pieces and kept giving them to his disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.

They also had a few small fish. He blessed them and said that the fish should also be distributed.

He asked them, "How many loaves of bread do you have? Go and see." They found out and told him, "Five loaves and two fish."

Then the disciples picked up twelve baskets full of leftover bread and fish.
