St Mark 8:4-14 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

4. And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness?

5. And he asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven.

6. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke, and gave to his disciples for to set before them; and they set them before the people.

7. And they had a few little fishes; and he blessed them, and commanded them to be set before them.

8. And they did eat and were filled; and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets.

9. And they that had eaten were about four thousand; and he sent them away.

10. And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

11. And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, asking him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

12. And sighing deeply in spirit, he saith: Why doth this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, a sign shall not be given to this generation.

13. And leaving them, he went up again into the ship, and passed to the other side of the water.

14. And they forgot to take bread; and they had but one loaf with them in the ship.
