1. During those days another large crowd gathered. They had nothing to eat. So Jesus called for his disciples to come to him. He said,
2. "I feel deep concern for these people. They have already been with me three days. They don't have anything to eat.
3. If I send them away hungry, they will become too weak on their way home. Some of them have come from far away."
4. His disciples answered him. "There is nothing here," they said. "Where can anyone get enough bread to feed them?"
5. "How many loaves do you have?" Jesus asked. "Seven," they replied.
