32. Jesus called his disciples and said, “I feel sorry for the people. They have been with me three days now and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry, or they may become exhausted on their way home.”
33. His disciples asked him, “Where could we get enough bread to feed such a crowd in this place where no one lives?”
34. Jesus asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?”They answered, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
35. He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground.
