Mark 8:1-3

In those dayes, when there was a very great multitude, and had nothing to eate, Iesus called his disciples to him, and said vnto them,

I haue compassion on the multitude, because they haue nowe continued with mee three dayes, and haue nothing to eate.

And if I sende them away fasting to their owne houses, they woulde faint by the way: for some of them came from farre.
