Matthew 15:32-34

New Testament for Everyone

³² Jesus called his disciples, and said, “I am really sorry for the crowd. They’ve been around me now for three days and they haven’t got anything to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry; they might faint on the way home.”

³³ The disciples said to him, “Where could we get enough bread to feed a crowd this size, out here in the country?”

³⁴ “How many loaves have you got?” asked Jesus.

“Seven,” they replied, “and a few fish.”
