1. In those days the multitude being very great, and not having what they may eat, Jesus having called near his disciples, saith to them,
2. `I have compassion upon the multitude, because now three days they do continue with me, and they have not what they may eat;
3. and if I shall let them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way, for certain of them are come from far.'
4. And his disciples answered him, `Whence shall any one be able these here to feed with bread in a wilderness?'
5. And he was questioning them, `How many loaves have ye?' and they said, `Seven.'
