Mk 8:2: I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:

Mk 8:3: And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.

Mk 8:4: And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?

Mk 8:5: And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

Mk 8:7: And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
