1 In those days the crowd being very many, and having nothing they might eat, Jesus having called his disciples, says to them, 2 I feel compassion for the crowd, for already they remain three days with me, and have nothing they might eat: 3 And if I loose them fasting to their house, they will be relaxed in the way: for some of them have come from far. 4 And his disciples answered him, Whence might anyone be able to satisfy these with loaves here in the lonely place? 5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven. 6 And he enjoined to the crowd to recline upon the earth: and having taken the seven loaves, having returned thanks, he brake, and he gave to his disciples that they might set before; and they set before the crowd. 7 And they had a few little fishes: and having praised, he spake to set them also before. 8 And they ate, and were satisfied: and they took up the remains of the fragments, seven wicker baskets.
