Mark 6:44
42 They all ate and were satisfied,
43 and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.
And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.
45 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.
46 After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.
