Mark:8:1-10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In those days the multitude being very great ,
and having nothing to eat ,
Jesus called his disciples unto him ,
and saith unto them ,
*
I have compassion on the multitude ,
because they have now been with me three days ,
and have nothing to eat :
*
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses ,
they will faint by the way :
for divers of them came from far .
*
And his disciples answered him ,
From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness ?
*
And he asked them ,
How many loaves have ye ?
And they said ,
Seven .
*
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground :
and he took the seven loaves ,
and gave thanks ,
and brake ,
and gave to his disciples to set before them ;
and they did set them before the people .
*
And they had a few small fishes :
and he blessed ,
and commanded to set them also before them .
*
So they did eat ,
and were filled :
and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets .
*
And they that had eaten were about four thousand :
and he sent them away .
*
And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples ,
and came into the parts of Dalmanutha .
