1
In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,
2
I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;
3
If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.
4
And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?
5
And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.
6
And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.
