In those
days
the multitude
being
very great
, and
having
nothing
to eat
, Jesus
called
his
disciples
unto him , and saith
unto them
,
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 far
.
And his
disciples
answered
him
, From whence
can
a man
satisfy
these
men with bread
here
in
the wilderness
?
And he asked
them
, How many
loaves
have ye
? And
they said
, Seven
.
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
them ; and
they did set them before
the people
.
And they had
a few
small fishes
: and
he blessed
, and commanded
to set
them
also
before
them .
So they did eat
, and
were filled
: and
they took up
of the broken
meat that was left
seven
baskets
.
And they that had eaten
were
about
four thousand
: and
he sent
them
away
.
And straightway
he entered
into
a ship
with
his
disciples
, and came
into
the parts
of Dalmanutha
.
And the Pharisees
came forth
, and
began
to question
with him
, seeking
of
him
a sign
from
heaven
, tempting
him
.
And he sighed deeply
in his
spirit
, and saith
, Why
doth
this
generation
seek after
a sign
? verily
I say
unto you
, There shall no
sign
be given
unto this
generation
.
And he left
them
, and entering
into
the ship
again
departed
to
the other side
.
Now the disciples had forgotten
to take
bread
, neither
had
they in
the ship
with
them
more than
one
loaf
.
And he charged
them
, saying
, Take heed
, beware
of
the leaven
of the Pharisees
, and
of the leaven
of Herod
.
And they reasoned
among
themselves
, saying
, It is because
we have
no
bread
.
And when Jesus
knew
it , he saith
unto them
, Why
reason ye
, because
ye have
no
bread
? perceive ye
not yet
, neither
understand
? have ye
your
heart
yet
hardened
?
Having eyes
, see ye
not
? and
having
ears
, hear ye
not
? and
do ye
not
remember
?
When I brake
the five
loaves
among
five thousand
, how many
baskets
full
of fragments
took ye up
? They say
unto him
, Twelve
.
And when
the seven
among
four thousand
, how many
baskets
full
of fragments
took ye up
? And
they said
, Seven
.
And he said
unto them
, How
is it that ye do
not
understand
?
And he cometh
to
Bethsaida
; and
they bring
a blind man
unto him
, and
besought
him
to
touch
him
.
And he took
the blind man
by the hand
, and led
him
out of
the town
; and
when he had spit
on
his
eyes
, and put
his hands
upon him
, he asked
him
if
he saw
ought
.
And he looked up
, and said
,
I see
men
as
trees
, walking
.
After that he put
his hands
again
upon
his
eyes
, and
made
him
look up
: and
he was restored
, and
saw
every man
clearly
.
And he sent
him
away
to
his
house
, saying
, Neither
go
into
the town
, nor
tell
it to any
in
the town
.
And Jesus
went out
, and
his
disciples
, into
the towns
of Caesarea
Philippi
: and
by
the way
he asked
his
disciples
, saying
unto them
, Whom
do
men
say
that I
am
?
And they answered
, John
the Baptist
: but
some
say , Elias
; and
others
, One
of the prophets
.
And he
saith
unto them
, But
whom
say
ye
that I
am
? And
Peter
answereth
and saith
unto him
, Thou
art
the Christ
.
And he charged
them
that
they should tell
no man
of
him
.
And he began
to teach
them
, that
the Son
of man
must
suffer
many things
, and
be rejected
of
the elders
, and
of the chief priests
, and
scribes
, and
be killed
, and
after
three
days
rise again
.
And he spake
that saying
openly
. And
Peter
took
him
, and began
to rebuke
him
.
But when he had turned about
and
looked
on his
disciples
, he rebuked
Peter
, saying
, Get thee
behind
me
, Satan
: for
thou savourest
not
the things that be of God
, but
the things that be of men
.
And when he had called
the people
unto him with
his
disciples
also, he said
unto them
, Whosoever
will
come
after
me
, let him deny
himself
, and
take up
his
cross
, and
follow
me
.
For whosoever
will
save
his
life
shall lose
it
; but
whosoever
shall lose
his
life
for
my sake
and
the gospel's
, the same
shall save
it
.
For what
shall it profit
a man
, if
he shall gain
the whole
world
, and
lose
his own
soul
?
Or what
shall
a man
give
in exchange
for his
soul
?
Whosoever therefore
shall be ashamed
of me
and
of my
words
in
this
adulterous
and
sinful
generation
; of him
also
shall
the Son
of man
be ashamed
, when
he cometh
in
the glory
of his
Father
with
the holy
angels
.
