John 6:7-9

6:7 Philip replied, ¹  “Two hundred silver coins worth ²  of bread would not be enough for them, for each one to get a little.” 6:8 One of Jesus’ disciples, ³  Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, 6:9 “Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what good ⁴  are these for so many people?”

³ tn Grk “one of his disciples.”

⁴ tn Grk “but what are these”; the word “good” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.
