* Jesus departed from there , skirted the Sea of Galilee , and went up on the mountain and sat down there . * Then great multitudes came to Him , having with them the lame , blind , mute , maimed , and many others ; and they laid them down at Jesus ' feet , and He healed them . * So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking , the maimed made whole , the lame walking , and the blind seeing ; and they glorified the God of Israel . * Now Jesus called His disciples to Himself and said , "I have compassion on the multitude , because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat . And I do not want to send them away hungry , lest they faint on the way ." * Then His disciples said to Him , "Where could we get enough bread in the wilderness to fill such a great multitude ?" * Jesus said to them , "How many loaves do you have ?" And they said , "Seven , and a few little fish ." * So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground . * And He took the seven loaves and the fish and gave thanks , broke them and gave them to His disciples ; and the disciples gave to the multitude . * So they all ate and were filled , and they took up seven large baskets full of the fragments that were left . * Now those who ate were four thousand men , besides women and children . * And He sent away the multitude , got into the boat , and came to the region of Magdala .
