5
And he asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" So they said, "Seven."
6
And he commanded the crowd to recline for a meal on the ground, and taking the seven loaves, [after he] had given thanks he broke [them] and began giving [them] to his disciples so that they could set [them] before [them]. And they set [them] before the crowd.
7
And they had a few small fish, and [after] giving thanks for them, he said to set these [before them] also.
8
And they ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the broken pieces that were left, seven baskets [full].
9
Now there were about four thousand. And he sent them away.
10
And immediately he got into the boat with his disciples [and] went to the district of Dalmanutha.
Pharisees Demand a Sign
11 And the Pharisees came and began to argue with him, demanding from him a sign from heaven [in order to] test him.
12
And sighing deeply in his spirit, he said, "Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation!"
13
And he left them, got into [the boat] again, [and] went to the other side.
Beware the Leaven of the Pharisees and Herod
14 And they had forgotten to take bread, and except [for] one loaf, they did not have [any] with them in the boat.
15
And he ordered them, saying, "Watch out! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod!"
