^{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.

^{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;

^{5 Ref} He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven."

^{6 Ref} He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
