And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.
4
And whatsoever house you shall enter into, abide there and depart not from thence.
5
And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off even the dust of your feet, for a testimony against them.
6
And going out, they went about through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing every where.
7
Now Herod, the tetrarch, heard of all things that were done by him. And he was in a doubt, because it was said
8
By some that John was risen from the dead: but by other some, that Elias had appeared: and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.
9
And Herod said: John I have beheaded. But who is this of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10
And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all they had done. And taking them, he went aside into a desert place, apart, which belongeth to Bethsaida.
11

12
Now the day began to decline. And the twelve came and said to him: Send away the multitude, that, going into the towns and villages round about, they may lodge and get victuals; for we are here in a desert place.
13
But he said to them: Give you them to eat. And they said: We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless perhaps, we should go and buy food for all this multitude.
