32 But Jesus called his disciples to him and said. "My heart yearns over the crowd, for they have been with me now three days, and they have nothing to eat. I am not willing to send them away hungry, for fear they faint on the road."

33 "In a lonely place like this," asked the disciple. "where can we get bread enough to satisfy such a crowd?"

34 "How many loaves have you?" answered Jesus. They replied, "Seven, and a few small fish.

35 So when he had summoned the crowd, and seated them upon the ground,

36 he took the seven loaves and the fish, and gave thanks, then he broke them and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.

37 And all ate and were satisfied, and of the fragments that remained they gathered seven large basketfuls.

38 And those who ate numbered four thousand, besides the women and children.
