1 In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them, 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, During those days another large crowd gathered. Since they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said,
2 “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat. “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat. “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat.
3 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.” And if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way. And some of them have come from far away.” If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.”
4 His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?” And his disciples answered him, “How can one feed these people with bread here in this desolate place?” His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?”
5 He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.” And he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.” “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
6 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. And he directed 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. He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. When he had taken the seven loaves and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people, and they did so.
7 They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also. And they had a few small fish. And having blessed them, he said that these also should be set before them. They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them.
