"Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what good are these for so many people?"

Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed the bread to those who were seated. He then did the same with the fish, as much as they wanted.

So Jesus said to them, "Children, you don't have any fish, do you?" They replied, "No."

He told them, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they threw the net, and were not able to pull it in because of the large number of fish.

Meanwhile the other disciples came with the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, only about a hundred yards.

When they got out on the beach, they saw a charcoal fire ready with a fish placed on it, and bread.

Jesus said, "Bring some of the fish you have just now caught."

So Simon Peter went aboard and pulled the net to shore. It was full of large fish, one hundred fifty-three, but although there were so many, the net was not torn.

Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish.
