Mark 8:1-5 New English Translation (NET)

1. In those days there was another large crowd with nothing to eat. So Jesus called his disciples and said to them,

2. “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have already been here with me three days, and they have nothing to eat.

3. If I send them home hungry, they will faint on the way, and some of them have come from a great distance.”

4. His disciples answered him, “Where can someone get enough bread in this desolate place to satisfy these people?”

5. He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They replied, “Seven.”
