^{1 Ref} In those days, when there was again a great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them,

^{2 Ref} I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat:

^{3 Ref} and if I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way; and some of them are come from far.

^{4 Ref} And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to fill these men with bread here in a desert place?

^{5 Ref} And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

^{6 Ref} And he commandeth the multitude to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks, he brake, and gave to his disciples, to set before them; and they set them before the multitude.

^{7 Ref} And they had a few small fishes: and having blessed them, he commanded to set these also before them.

^{8 Ref} And they ate, and were filled: and they took up, of broken pieces that remained over, seven baskets.

⁹ And they were about four thousand: and he sent them away.

^{10 Ref} And straightway he entered into the boat with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

^{1 Ref} In those days the multitude being very great, and not having what they may eat, Jesus having called near his disciples, saith to them,

^{2 Ref} `I have compassion upon the multitude, because now three days they do continue with me, and they have not what they may eat;

^{3 Ref} and if I shall let them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way, for certain of them are come from far.'

^{4 Ref} And his disciples answered him, `Whence shall any one be able these here to feed with bread in a wilderness?'

^{5 Ref} And he was questioning them, `How many loaves have ye?' and they said, `Seven.'

^{6 Ref} And he commanded the multitude to sit down upon the ground, and having taken the seven loaves, having given thanks, he brake, and was giving to his disciples that they may set before `them'; and they did set before the multitude.

^{7 Ref} And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed, he said to set them also before `them';

^{8 Ref} and they did eat and were filled, and they took up that which was over of broken pieces -- seven baskets;

⁹ and those eating were about four thousand. And he let them away,

^{10 Ref} and immediately having entered into the boat with his disciples, he came to the parts of Dalmanutha,

^{1 Ref} In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,

^{2 Ref} I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;

^{3 Ref} If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.

^{4 Ref} And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

^{5 Ref} And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.

^{6 Ref} And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.

^{7 Ref} And they had some small fishes; and blessing them he had them put before the people in the same way.

^{8 Ref} And they took the food, and had enough; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken bits.

⁹ And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.

^{10 Ref} And he got into the boat with his disciples straight away, and came into the country of Dalmanutha.
