32 Now Jesus, having summoned His disciples, He said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been remaining with Me three days, and they do not have anything to eat. And I do not desire to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way."

33 Then His disciples said to Him, "Where could we get so many loaves of bread in [this] deserted place, so as to satisfy so great a crowd?"

34 Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?"And they said, "Seven, and a few small fish."

35 So He commanded the crowds to recline on the ground.

36 And He took the seven loaves and the fish, having given thanks, He broke [them], and gave [them] to His disciples; and the disciples [gave] to the crowd.

37 So they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up what they had left of the fragments, seven hampers full.

38 Now those who ate were four thousand men, apart from women and children.
