1 In those days, the crowd being very great and not having any to eat, יהושע called His taught ones near and said to them,
2 “I have compassion on the crowd, for they have now been with Me three days and do not have food to eat.
3 “And if I dismiss them unfed to their home, they shall faint on the way, for some of them have come from far.”
4 And His taught ones answered Him, “How shall anyone be able to feed these people with bread here in the desert?”
5 And He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven.”
6 And He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, He broke them and gave them to His taught ones to set before them. And they set them before the crowd.
7 And they had a few small fishes. And having blessed, He said to set them also before them.
