In those days, there being again a great crowd, and they having nothing that they could eat, having called his disciples to [him], he says to them,
In those days, there being again a great crowd, and they having nothing that they could eat, having called his disciples to [him], he says to them,
Jesus Feeds Four Thousand
About this time another large crowd had gathered, and the people ran out of food again. Jesus called his disciples and told them,
About this time another large crowd had gathered, and the people ran out of food again. Jesus called his disciples and told them,
I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat,
“I feel sorry for these people. They have been here with me for three days, and they have nothing left to eat.
and if I should dismiss them to their home fasting, they will faint on the way; for some of them are come from far.
If I send them home hungry, they will faint along the way. For some of them have come a long distance.”
And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to satisfy these with bread here in a desert place?
His disciples replied, “How are we supposed to find enough food to feed them out here in the wilderness?”
And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
Jesus asked, “How much bread do you have?”
“Seven loaves,” they replied.
“Seven loaves,” they replied.
And he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And having taken the seven loaves, he gave thanks, and broke [them] and gave [them] to his disciples, that they might set [them] before [them]; and they set [them] before the crowd.
So Jesus told all the people to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, thanked God for them, and broke them into pieces. He gave them to his disciples, who distributed the bread to the crowd.
And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed them, he desired these also to be set before [them].
A few small fish were found, too, so Jesus also blessed these and told the disciples to distribute them.
And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up of fragments that remained seven baskets.
They ate as much as they wanted. Afterward, the disciples picked up seven large baskets of leftover food.
And they [that had eaten] were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
There were about 4,000 men in the crowd that day, and Jesus sent them home after they had eaten.
And immediately going on board ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
Immediately after this, he got into a boat with his disciples and crossed over to the region of Dalmanutha.
The Pharisees Seek a Sign
And the Pharisees went out and began to dispute against him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
And the Pharisees went out and began to dispute against him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
Pharisees Demand a Miraculous Sign
When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had arrived, they came and started to argue with him. Testing him, they demanded that he show them a miraculous sign from heaven to prove his authority.
And groaning in his spirit, he says, Why does this generation seek a sign? Verily I say unto you, A sign shall in no wise be given to this generation.
When he heard this, he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why do these people keep demanding a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, I will not give this generation any such sign.”
And he left them, and going again on board ship, went away to the other side.
So he got back into the boat and left them, and he crossed to the other side of the lake.
Leaven of the Pharisees and Herod
And they forgot to take bread, and save one loaf, they had not [any] with them in the ship.
And they forgot to take bread, and save one loaf, they had not [any] with them in the ship.
Yeast of the Pharisees and Herod
But the disciples had forgotten to bring any food. They had only one loaf of bread with them in the boat.
And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and [of] the leaven of Herod.
As they were crossing the lake, Jesus warned them, “Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
And they reasoned with one another, [saying], It is because we have no bread.
At this they began to argue with each other because they hadn’t brought any bread.
And Jesus knowing [it], says to them, Why reason ye because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your heart [yet] hardened?
Jesus knew what they were saying, so he said, “Why are you arguing about having no bread? Don’t you know or understand even yet? Are your hearts too hard to take it in?
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him, Twelve.
When I fed the 5,000 with five loaves of bread, how many baskets of leftovers did you pick up afterward?”
“Twelve,” they said.
“Twelve,” they said.
And when the seven for the four thousand, the filling of how many baskets of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
“And when I fed the 4,000 with seven loaves, how many large baskets of leftovers did you pick up?”
“Seven,” they said.
“Seven,” they said.
A Blind Man Healed at Bethsaida
And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and beseech him that he might touch him.
And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and beseech him that he might touch him.
Jesus Heals a Blind Man
When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man to Jesus, and they begged him to touch the man and heal him.
And taking hold of the hand of the blind man he led him forth out of the village, and having spit upon his eyes, he laid his hands upon him, and asked him if he beheld anything.
Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then, spitting on the man’s eyes, he laid his hands on him and asked, “Can you see anything now?”
And having looked up, he said, I behold men, for I see [them], as trees, walking.
The man looked around. “Yes,” he said, “I see people, but I can’t see them very clearly. They look like trees walking around.”
Then he laid his hands again upon his eyes, and he saw distinctly, and was restored and saw all things clearly.
Then Jesus placed his hands on the man’s eyes again, and his eyes were opened. His sight was completely restored, and he could see everything clearly.
And he sent him to his house, saying, Neither enter into the village, nor tell [it] to any one in the village.
Jesus sent him away, saying, “Don’t go back into the village on your way home.”
Peter's Confession of Christ
And Jesus went forth and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea-Philippi. And by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?
And Jesus went forth and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea-Philippi. And by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?
Peter’s Declaration about Jesus
Jesus and his disciples left Galilee and went up to the villages near Caesarea Philippi. As they were walking along, he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”
And they answered him, saying, John the baptist; and others, Elias; but others, One of the prophets.
“Well,” they replied, “some say John the Baptist, some say Elijah, and others say you are one of the other prophets.”
And he asked them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering says to him, *Thou* art the Christ.
And he charged them straitly, in order that they should tell no man about him.
But Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.
Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection
And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests and of the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise [again].
And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests and of the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise [again].
And he spoke the thing openly. And Peter, taking him to [him], began to rebuke him.
But he, turning round and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, Get away behind me, Satan, for thy mind is not on the things that are of God, but on the things that are of men.
Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples, then reprimanded Peter. “Get away from me, Satan!” he said. “You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, not from God’s.”
Take up Your Cross
And having called the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, Whoever desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.
And having called the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, Whoever desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.
Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.
For whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.
If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it.
For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul?
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him shall the Son of man also be ashamed when he shall come in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulterous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”
