Luke 9:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹² Late in the day,^[a](A) the Twelve approached and said to Him, “Send the crowd away,^(B) so they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside to find food and lodging, because we are in a deserted place here.”

¹³ “You give them something to eat,” He told them.

“We have no more than five loaves^(C) and two fish,” they said, “unless we go and buy food for all these people.” ¹⁴ (For about 5,000 men were there.)

Then He told His disciples, “Have them sit down^[b] in groups of about 50 each.”
