Mark 6:32-56

32And they wentG565 awayG565 in the boatG4143 to a desert placeG5117 apart. 33And the people sawG3708 them goingG5217, and manyG4183 knewG1921 them, and they ran togetherG4936 there on foot from all the citiesG4172, and outwent them. 34And he cameG1831 forthG1831 and sawG3708 a greatG4183 multitudeG3793, and he had compassionG4697 on them, because they wereG1510 as sheepG4263 not having a shepherdG4166: and he beganG757 to teachG1321 them manyG4183 thingsG4183. 35And when the day wasG1510 now far spent, his disciplesG3101 cameG4334 unto him, and saidG3004, The placeG5117 isG1510 desert, and the day isG1510 now far spent; 36sendG630 them awayG565, that they may goG565 into the countryG68 and villagesG2968 round about, and buyG59 themselves somewhat to eatG2068. 37But he answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto them, GiveG1325 ye them to eatG2068. And they sayG3004 unto him, Shall we goG565 and buyG59 twoG1250 hundredG1250 shillings’ worth of breadG740, and giveG1325 them to eatG2068? 38And he saith unto them, HowG4214 manyG4214 loavesG740 have ye? goG5217 and seeG3708. And when they knewG1097, they sayG3004, FiveG4002, and twoG1417 fishes. 39And he commandedG2004 them that all should sit down by companies upon the greenG5515 grassG5528. 40And they sat downG377 in ranks, by hundredsG1540, and by fiftiesG4004. 41And he tookG2983 the fiveG4002 loavesG740 and the twoG1417 fishes, and lookingG308 up to heavenG3772, he blessedG2127, and brake the loavesG740; and he gaveG1325 to the disciplesG3101 to setG3908 before them; and the twoG1417 fishes divided he among them all. 42And they all ateG2068, and were filledG5526. 43And they tookG142 up broken pieces, twelveG1427 basketfuls, and alsoG2532 of the fishes. 44And they that ateG2068 the loavesG740 wereG1510 fiveG4000 thousandG4000 menG435.

45And straightway he constrained his disciplesG3101 to enter into the boatG4143, and to goG4254 before him unto the otherG4008 sideG4008 to BethsaidaG966, while he himself sendeth the multitudeG3793 awayG630. 46And after he had taken leave of them, he departedG565 into the mountainG3735 to prayG4336. 47And when evenG2532 wasG1510 comeG1096, the boatG4143 wasG1510 in the midstG3319 of the seaG2281, and he aloneG3441 on the landG1093. 48And seeingG3708 them distressed in rowing, for the windG417 wasG1510 contraryG1727 unto them, about the fourth watchG5438 of the nightG3571 he cometh unto them, walkingG4043 on the seaG2281; and he would have passedG3928 by them: 49but they, when they sawG3708 him walkingG4043 on the seaG2281, supposed that it wasG1510 a ghostG5326, and cried out; 50for they all sawG3708 him, and wereG1510 troubledG5015. But he straightway spake with them, and saith unto them, BeG1510 of good cheer: it isG1510 I; beG1510 not afraidG5399. 51And he wentG305 up unto them into the boatG4143; and the windG417 ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves; 52for they understoodG4920 not concerning the loavesG740, but their heartG2588 wasG1510 hardenedG4456.

53And when they had crossed over, they cameG2064 to the landG1093 unto GennesaretG1082, and moored to the shore. 54And when they were comeG1831 out of the boatG4143, straightway the people knewG1921 him, 55and ran round about that wholeG3650 regionG5561, and beganG757 to carry about on their beds those that wereG1510 sickG2560, whereG3699 they heardG191 he wasG1510. 56And wheresoever he enteredG1531, into villagesG2968, or into citiesG4172, or into the countryG68, they laidG5087 the sickG770 in the marketplaces, and besought him that they might touchG681 if it were but the border of his garmentG2440: and as manyG3745 as touchedG681 him were made whole.
