Matthew 15:29-39

291Departing from there, Jesus went along 2the Sea of Galilee, and after going up on the mountain, He was sitting there. 30And 3large crowds came to Him bringing with them those who were limping, had impaired limbs, were blind, or were unable to speak, and many others, and they laid them down at His feet; and 4He healed them. 31So the crowd was astonished as they saw those who were unable to speak talking, those with impaired limbs 5restored, those who were limping walking around, and those who were blind seeing; and they 6glorified the God of Israel.

327Now Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “8I feel compassion for the 9people, because they 10have remained with Me now for three days and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to send them away hungry, for they might faint on the way.” 33The disciples said to Him, “Where would we get so many loaves in this desolate place to satisfy such a large crowd?” 34And Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few small fish.” 35And He directed the 11people to 12sit down on the ground; 36and He took the seven loaves and the fish; and after 13giving thanks, He broke them and started giving them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 37And they all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, seven large 14baskets full. 38And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

39And sending away the crowds, Jesus got into 15the boat and came to the region of 16Magadan.
