Mark - ch 8 v 1 - 20
- In those days again, when there was a great multitude, and had nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he saith to them:
- I have compassion on the multitude, for behold they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat.
- And if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way; for some of them came from afar off.
- And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness?
- And he asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven.
- And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke, and gave to his disciples for to set before them; and they set them before the people.
- And they had a few little fishes; and he blessed them, and commanded them to be set before them.
- And they did eat and were filled; and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets.
- And they that had eaten were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
- And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
- And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, asking him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
- And sighing deeply in spirit, he saith: Why doth this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, a sign shall not be given to this generation.
- And leaving them, he went up again into the ship, and passed to the other side of the water.
- And they forgot to take bread; and they had but one loaf with them in the ship.
- And he charged them, saying: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
- And they reasoned among themselves, saying: Because we have no bread.
- Which Jesus knowing, saith to them: Why do you reason, because you have no bread? do you not yet know nor understand? have you still your heart blinded?
- Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? neither do you remember.
- When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? They say to him, Twelve.
- When also the seven loaves among four thousand, how many baskets of fragments took you up? And they say to him, Seven.
