Mark 8:1-9

Wesley(i) 1 In those days, the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, 2 Jesus calling his disciples saith to them, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat. 3 And if I send them away fasting to their own home, they will faint by the way; for divers of them come from far. 4 And his disciples answered him, Whence can one satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness? 5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? 6 And they said, Seven. And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground; and taking the seven loaves, having given thanks, he brake and gave to his disciples to set before them: and they did set them before the people. 7 And they had a few small fishes: and having blessed them, he commanded, to set them also before them. 8 So they did eat and were satisfied; and they took up of the fragments that were left, seven baskets. 9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
