New Testament

Mark 8:7-13 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

7. The disciples also had a few small fish. Jesus gave thanks for them too. He told the disciples to pass them around.

8. The people ate and were satisfied. After that, the disciples picked up seven baskets of leftover pieces.

9. About 4,000 men were there. Jesus sent them away.

10. Then he got into a boat with his disciples. He went to the area of Dalmanutha.

11. The Pharisees came and began to ask Jesus questions. They wanted to put him to the test. So they asked him for a miraculous sign from heaven.

12. He sighed deeply. He said, "Why do you people ask for a sign? What I'm about to tell you is true. No sign will be given to you."

13. Then he left them. He got back into the boat and crossed to the other side of the lake.
