|
| 1 | In those days, when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, he called his disciples to him, and said to them, | The Feeding of the Four Thousand Mk.8.1-10 (Gennesaret) | Mt.15.32-39 |
| 2 | "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days, and have nothing to eat; | |
| 3 | and if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way; and some of them have come a long way." | |
| 4 | And his disciples answered him, "How can one feed these men with bread here in the desert?" | |
| 5 | And he asked them, "How many loaves have you?" They said, "Seven." | |
| 6 | And he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and they set them before the crowd. | |
| 7 | And they had a few small fish; and having blessed them, he commanded that these also should be set before them. | |
| 8 | And they ate, and were satisfied; and they took up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets full. | |
| 9 | And there were about four thousand people. | |
| 10 | And he sent them away; and immediately he got into the boat with his disciples, and went to the district of Dalmanutha. | |
