St Matthew 15:27-35 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

27. But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.

28. Then Jesus answering, said to her: O woman, great is thy faith: be it done to thee as thou wilt: and her daughter was cured from that hour.

29. And when Jesus had passed away from thence, he came nigh the sea of Galilee. And going up into a mountain, he sat there.

30. And there came to him great multitudes, having with them the dumb, the blind, the lame, the maimed, and many others: and they cast them down at his feet, and he healed them:

31. So that the multitudes marvelled seeing the dumb speak, the lame walk, and the blind see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

32. And Jesus called together his disciples, and said: I have compassion on the multitudes, because they continue with me now three days, and have not what to eat, and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

33. And the disciples say unto him: Whence then should we have so many loaves in the desert, as to fill so great a multitude?

34. And Jesus said to them: How many loaves have you? But they said: Seven, and a few little fishes.

35. And he commanded the multitude to sit down upon the ground.
