And they went forth, and passed through the villages, preaching the gospel, and performing cures everywhere. Then Herod the tetrarch heard of all things that were done by him; and he was in much distraction of mind, because it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead: and of some that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the ancient prophets was risen again. And Herod said, John I beheaded; but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him. And when the apostles returned, they told him what they had done. And taking them, he withdrew privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida. But when the multitudes knew it, they followed him and receiving them, he spake to them concerning the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of a cure. Now the day began to decline: and the twelve coming to him, said, Dismiss the multitude, that going away into the villages and farms round about, they may lodge and find provision; for here we are in a desert place. Then he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves, and two fishes; unless we go somewhere and buy provisions for all this multitude: for there were about five thousand men. Then said he to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties each in companies. And they did so: and they made them all sit down. And taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled; and there were taken up of the fragments which were more than enough for them, twelve baskets.
