Mark 8:1-9

<a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-1.htm" >1</a>In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them, <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-2.htm" >2</a>I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat: <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-3.htm" >3</a>And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.<a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-4.htm" >4</a>And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness? <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-5.htm" >5</a>And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven. <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-6.htm" >6</a>And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people. <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-7.htm" >7</a>And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them. <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-8.htm" >8</a>So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets. <a href="http://bible.cc/mark/8-9.htm" >9</a>And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
