10. and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.

11. And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.

12. And his disciples came, and took up the corpse, and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.

13. Now when Jesus heard it, he withdrew from thence in a boat, to a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard

14. And he came forth, and saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick.

15. And when even was come, the disciples came to him, saying, The place is desert, and the time is already past; send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.

16. But Jesus said unto them, They have no need to go away; give ye them to eat.

17. And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

18. And he said, Bring them hither to me.

19. And he commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.

20. And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full.

21. And they that did eat were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

22. And straightway he constrained the disciples to enter into the boat, and to go before him unto the other side, till he should send the multitudes away.
