tcent@Matthew:15:29 @ And Jesus went on from there and passed along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there.
tcent@Matthew:15:30 @ Then great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the maimed, the blind, the mute, and many others; and they laid them down at his feet, and he healed them.
tcent@Matthew:15:31 @ 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.
tcent@Matthew:15:32 @ Now Jesus called his disciples to him and said, »I have compassion on the multitude, because they have been 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.«
tcent@Matthew:15:33 @ Then his disciples said to him, »Where could we get enough bread in the wilderness to feed such a great crowd?«
tcent@Matthew:15:34 @ And Jesus said to them, »How many loaves do you have?« They said, »Seven, and a few small fish.«
tcent@Matthew:15:35 @ He told the crowd to sit down on the ground.
tcent@Matthew:15:36 @ Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.
tcent@Matthew:15:37 @ And they all ate and were satisfied; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.
tcent@Matthew:15:38 @ Now those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
tcent@Matthew:15:39 @ And he sent away the crowds, got into the boat, and went to the region of Magadan.
