Jesus said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
Jesus therefore took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to them that were set down; likewise also of the fishes as much as they would.
And when they were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which remain over, that nothing be lost.
So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which remained over unto them that had eaten.
When therefore the people saw the {Some ancient authorities read signs.}sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that cometh into the world.

A Song of Ascents.Jehovah, remember for DavidAll his affliction;
How he sware unto Jehovah,And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
Surely I will not come into the {Hebrew: tent.}tabernacle of my house,Nor go up into {Hebrew: the couch of my bed.}my bed;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes,Or slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for Jehovah, {Hebrew: Tablernacles.}A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.
Lo, we heard of it in {Or, Ephraim}Ephrathah:We found it in the field of {Or, Jaar See 1 Chronicles 13:5.}the wood.
We will go into his tabernacles;We will worship at his footstool.
Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;And let thy saints shout for joy.
For thy servant David's sakeTurn not away the face of thine anointed.
Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth;He will not turn from it:Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
If thy children will keep my covenantAnd my testimony that I shall teach them,Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.
For Jehovah hath chosen Zion;He hath desired it for his habitation.
This is my resting-place for ever:Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will {Or, surely}abundantly bless her provision:I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
There will I make {Or, a horn to spring forth unto David}the horn of David to bud:I have {Or, prepared}ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
His enemies will I clothe with shame;But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance,And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
