Mark 8 1 In those days, the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples, and said unto them,
2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat; and if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way; for divers of them came from afar.
3 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these, so great a multitude, with bread, here in the wilderness?
4 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven
5 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 the people; and they did set them before the people.
6 And they had a few small fishes; and he blessed them, and commanded to set them also before the people, that they should eat.
7 So they did eat and were filled, and they took up of the broken bread that was left, seven baskets.
8 And they that had eaten were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
9 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
10 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
11 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, Why doth this generation seek after a sign?
