Matthew 15:29-39
15:29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee;
and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
15:30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame,
blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
15:31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak,
the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
15:32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said,
I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days,
and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
15:33 And his disciples say unto him,
Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
15:34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye?
And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
15:35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
15:36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them,
and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
15:37 And they did all eat, and were filled:
and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.
15:38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
15:39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of
Magdala.

Mark 8:1-10
8:1 In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat,
Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
8:2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days,
and have nothing to eat:
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.
8:4 And his disciples answered him,
From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
8:5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye?
And they said, Seven.
8:6 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.
8:7 And they had a few small fishes:
and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
8:8 So they did eat, and were filled:
and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
8:9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand:
and he sent them away.
8:10 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples,
and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
