John 6:12-20 The Books of the Bible NT (BOOKS)

12. When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, "Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted."

13. So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

14. After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, "Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world."

15. Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself.

16. When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake,

17. where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them.

18. A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough.

19. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened.

20. But he said to them, "It is I; don't be afraid."
