1In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,
2I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;
3If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.
4And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?
5And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.
6And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.
7And they had some small fishes; and blessing them he had them put before the people in the same way.
