Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand
Mark 8:1-9
1
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,
2
I haue compassion on the multitude, because they haue nowe continued with mee three dayes, and haue nothing to eate.
3
And if I sende them away fasting to their owne houses, they woulde faint by the way: for some of them came from farre.
4
Then his disciples answered him, Whence can a man satisfie these with bread here in the wildernes?
5
And hee asked them, Howe many loaues haue ye? And they said, Seuen.
6
Then he commanded the multitude to sit downe on the grounde: and hee tooke the seuen loaues, and gaue thankes, brake them, and gaue to his disciples to set before them, and they did set them before the people.
7
They had also a few small fishes: and when he had giuen thankes, he commanded them also to be set before them.
8
So they did eate, and were sufficed, and they tooke vp of the broken meate that was left, seuen baskets full.
9
(And they that had eaten, were about foure thousand) so he sent them away.
