After these things, Jesus went away across the sea of Galilee, that is, of Tiberias;
and there was following him a great multitude, because they had been viewing the signs which he did upon such as were sick.
But Jesus had gone up into the mountain, and, there, was sitting with his disciples.
Now the passover was near, the feast of the Jews.
5 ⲉ̅ ⲉⲧⲁϥϥⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏ ϣ ⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲛⲁϫⲉⲙ ⲱⲓⲕ ⲑⲱⲛ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ.
So then Jesus, lifting up his eyes, and beholding that a great multitude was coming unto him, saith unto Philip—Whence are we to buy loaves, that these may eat?
But, this, he was saying, to test him; for, he himself, knew, what he was about to do.
Philip answered him—Two hundred denaries-worth of loaves, are not sufficient for them, that, each one, may take, a little.
One from among his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith unto him—
9 ⲑ̅ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲃ̅ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲫⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓⲙⲏϣ.
There is a little lad here, that hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes, —but, these, —what are they, for such numbers?
10 ⲓ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲣⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲓⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲣⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲥⲓⲙ ⲧⲟⲩ⳿ⲏⲡⲓ ⲉⲩⲉⲣ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛϣⲟ.
Jesus said—Make the people recline. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men reclined, to the number of about five thousand.
11 ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁϥϭⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁϥϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁϥϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲑⲣⲟⲧⲉⲃ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲫⲏ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϣϥ.
Jesus therefore took the loaves, and, giving thanks, went on distributing unto them that reclined; in like manner, of the small fishes also: as much as they were wishing.
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
And, when they were well-filled, he saith unto his disciples—Gather up the broken pieces left over, that nothing be lost.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲁⲩⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲙⲁϩ ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲗⲁⲕϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ.
So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets, with broken pieces out of the five barley loaves, —which were left over by them who had eaten.
14 ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲁⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲙⲏⲓ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
The people, therefore, seeing what signs he wrought, began to say—This, is, of a truth, the prophet who was to come into the world.
15 ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩϣ ⳿ⲉ⳿Ⲓ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲗⲙⲉϥ ⳿ⲉⲁⲓϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲭⲱⲣⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ.
Jesus, therefore, getting to know that they were about to come, and seize him, that they might make him king, retired again into the mountain, himself, alone.
But, when evening came, his disciples went down unto the sea;
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲛⲁⲩⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⳿ⲉⲕⲁⲫⲁⲣⲛⲁⲟⲩⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉⲁ ⳿ⲧⲭⲉⲙⲥ ϩⲏⲇⲏ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲉϥ⳿Ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
and, entering into a boat, were going across the sea into Capernaum. And, dark, already, had it become, and, not yet, had Jesus reached them;
moreover the sea, by reason of a great wind that blew, was rising high.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲧⲁⲇⲓⲟⲛ ⲓⲉ ⲗ̅ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥϧⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟϯ.
Having therefore rowed about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they observe Jesus, walking upon the sea, and, near the boat, coming; and they were affrighted.
But, he, saith unto them—It is, I: be not affrighted!
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲗⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁ ⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩⲛⲁϣⲉ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
They were willing, therefore, to receive him into the boat; and, straightway, the boat was at land, whither they had been slowly going.
22 ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥϯ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϩⲓⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲕⲉϫⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϣⲉ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲟⲩ.
On the morrow, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, saw that there was not, another small-boat, there, save one, —and that Jesus entered not, along with his disciples, unto the boat, but that, alone, his disciples departed: —
23 ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲉⲉϫⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲓⲃⲉⲣⲓⲁⲇⲟⲥ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲁϥϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪.
howbeit there came boats out of Tiberias, near the place where they did eat the bread, after the Lord had given thanks: —
24 ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϫⲏⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲕⲁⲫⲁⲣⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲉⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
When, therefore, the multitude saw, that, Jesus, was not there, nor yet his disciples, they themselves, got into the small boats, and came unto Capernaum, seeking Jesus;
and, finding him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him—Rabbi! when, camest thou, hither?

Jesus answered them, and said—Verily, verily, I say unto you: Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves and were filled.

Be working, not for the food that perisheth, but for the food that endureth unto life age-abiding, —which, the Son of Man, unto you, will give; for upon, the same, hath the Father, even God, set his seal. (aiōnios g166)
They said, therefore, unto him—What are we to do, that we may be working the works of God?
Jesus answered, and said unto them—This, is the work of God: that ye believe on him whom, he, hath sent forth.

They said, therefore, unto him—What, then, art, thou, doing, by way of sign, that we may see, and believe in thee: what art thou working?

Jesus said unto them—Verily, verily, I say unto you: Not Moses, gave you the bread out of heaven; but, my Father, giveth you the real bread out of heaven.
For, the bread of God, is that which is coming down out of heaven, and giving, life, unto the world.
They said, therefore, unto him—Sir! Evermore, give us this bread.

Jesus said unto them—I, am the bread of life: he that cometh unto me, in nowise shall hunger, and, he that believeth on me, in nowise shall thirst, any more.
But I told you—Ye have even seen [me], and yet do not believe.
All that which the Father is giving me, unto me, will have come, and, him that cometh unto me, in nowise will I cast out, —

The Jews, therefore, began to murmur concerning him, because he said—I, am the bread that came down out of heaven;

Jesus answered, and said unto them—Be not murmuring, one with another:

Not that any one hath seen, the Father, save he who is from God, —this one, hath seen the Father.
Verily, verily, I say unto you: He that believeth, hath life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
I am the bread of life: —
