Bible verse
“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.
Matthew 14:18 · BSB
The verses around it, from Matthew 14.
14 When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15 When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”
16 “They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”
17 “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.
18 “Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.
19 And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
20 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
21 About five thousand men were fed, in addition to women and children.
22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.
