Matthew 15:
29 - 37
|
| 29 |
And Jesus went on from there and passed
along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there.
|
| 30 |
And great crowds came to him, bringing with
them the lame, the maimed, the blind, the dumb, and many others, and they put
them at his feet, and he healed them, |
| 31 |
so that the throng wondered, when they saw
the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and
they glorified the God of Israel. |
| 32 |
Then Jesus called his disciples to him and
said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three
days, and have nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest
they faint on the way." |
| 33 |
And the disciples said to him, "Where are we
to get bread enough in the desert to feed so great a crowd?" |
| 34 |
And Jesus said to them, "How many loaves
have you?" They said, "Seven, and a few small fish." |
| 35 |
And commanding the crowd to sit down on the
ground, |
| 36 |
he took the seven loaves and the fish, and
having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the
disciples gave them to the crowds. |
| 37 |
And they all ate and were satisfied; and
they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over.
