WEB·Matthew 16

¹The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

KJVThe Pharisees^G5330 also^G2532 with the Sadducees^G4523 came^G4334^(G5631), and^G2532 tempting^G3985^(G5723) desired^G1905^(G5656) him^G846 that he would shew^G1925^(G5658) them^G846 a sign^G4592 from^G1537 heaven^G3772.

² But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’

KJV^G1161 He answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, When it is^G1096^(G5637) evening^G3798, ye say^G3004^(G5719), It will be fair weather^G2105: for^G1063 the sky^G3772 is red^G4449^(G5719).

³ In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!

KJVAnd^G2532 in the morning^G4404, It will be foul weather^G5494 to day^G4594: for^G1063 the sky^G3772 is red^G4449^(G5719) and lowring^G4768^(G5723). O ye hypocrites^G5273, ye can^G1097^(G5719) discern^G1252^(G5721)^G3303 the face^G4383 of the sky^G3772; but^G1161 can ye^G1410^(G5736) not^G3756 discern the signs^G4592 of the times^G2540?

⁴ An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.

KJVA wicked^G4190 and^G2532 adulterous^G3428 generation^G1074 seeketh after^G1934^(G5719) a sign^G4592; and^G2532 there shall no^G3756 sign^G4592 be given^G1325^(G5701) unto it^G846, but^G1508 the sign^G4592 of the prophet^G4396 Jonas^G2495. And^G2532 he left^G2641^(G5631) them^G846, and departed^G565^(G5627).

⁵ The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.

KJVAnd^G2532 when his^G846 disciples^G3101 were come^G2064^(G5631) to^G1519 the other side^G4008, they had forgotten^G1950^(G5633) to take^G2983^(G5629) bread^G740.

⁶ Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

KJVThen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Take heed^G3708^(G5720) and^G2532 beware^G4337^(G5720) of^G575 the leaven^G2219 of the Pharisees^G5330 and^G2532 of the Sadducees^G4523.

⁷ They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they reasoned^G1260^(G5711) among^G1722 themselves^G1438, saying^G3004^(G5723), It is because^G3754 we have taken^G2983^(G5627) no^G3756 bread^G740.

⁸ Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?

KJVWhich when^G1161 Jesus^G2424 perceived^G1097^(G5631), he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, O ye of little faith^G3640, why^G5101 reason ye^G1260^(G5736) among^G1722 yourselves^G1438, because^G3754 ye have brought^G2983^(G5627) no^G3756 bread^G740?

⁹ Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,

KJVDo ye^G3539 not yet^G3768 understand^G3539^(G5719), neither^G3761 remember^G3421^(G5719) the five^G4002 loaves^G740 of the five thousand^G4000, and^G2532 how many^G4214 baskets^G2894 ye took up^G2983^(G5627)?

¹⁰ or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?

KJVNeither^G3761 the seven^G2033 loaves^G740 of the four thousand^G5070, and^G2532 how many^G4214 baskets^G4711 ye took up^G2983^(G5627)?

¹¹ How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

KJVHow^G4459 is it that^G3754 ye do^G3539 not^G3756 understand^G3539^(G5719) that I spake^G2036^(G5627) it not^G3756 to you^G5213 concerning^G4012 bread^G740, that ye should beware^G4337^(G5721) of^G575 the leaven^G2219 of the Pharisees^G5330 and^G2532 of the Sadducees^G4523?

¹² Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

KJVThen^G5119 understood they^G4920^(G5656) how that^G3754 he bade^G2036^(G5627) them not^G3756 beware^G4337^(G5721) of^G575 the leaven^G2219 of bread^G740, but^G235 of^G575 the doctrine^G1322 of the Pharisees^G5330 and^G2532 of the Sadducees^G4523.

¹³ Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”

KJVWhen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 came^G2064^(G5631) into^G1519 the coasts^G3313 of Caesarea^G2542 Philippi^G5376, he asked^G2065^(G5707) his^G846 disciples^G3101, saying^G3004^(G5723), Whom^G5101 do men^G444 say^G3004^(G5719) that I^G3165 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 am^G1511^(G5750)?

¹⁴ They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Some say that thou art^G3303 John^G2491 the Baptist^G910:^G1161 some^G243, Elias^G2243; and^G1161 others^G2087, Jeremias^G2408, or^G2228 one^G1520 of the prophets^G4396.

¹⁵ He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”

KJVHe saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, But^G1161 whom^G5101 say^G3004^(G5719) ye^G5210 that I^G3165 am^G1511^(G5750)?

¹⁶ Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

KJVAnd^G1161 Simon^G4613 Peter^G4074 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), Thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) the Christ^G5547, the Son^G5207 of the living^G2198^(G5723) God^G2316.

¹⁷ Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Blessed^G3107 art thou^G1488^(G5748), Simon^G4613 Barjona^G920: for^G3754 flesh^G4561 and^G2532 blood^G129 hath^G601 not^G3756 revealed^G601^(G5656) it unto thee^G4671, but^G235 my^G3450 Father^G3962 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

¹⁸ I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.

KJVAnd^G1161 I say^G3004^(G5719) also^G2504 unto thee^G4671, That^G3754 thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) Peter^G4074, and^G2532 upon^G1909 this^G5026 rock^G4073 I will build^G3618^(G5692) my^G3450 church^G1577; and^G2532 the gates^G4439 of hell^G86 shall^G2729 not^G3756 prevail against^G2729^(G5692) it^G846.

¹⁹ I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”

KJVAnd^G2532 I will give^G1325^(G5692) unto thee^G4671 the keys^G2807 of the kingdom^G932 of heaven^G3772: and^G2532 whatsoever^G3739^G1437 thou shalt bind^G1210^(G5661) on^G1909 earth^G1093 shall be^G2071^(G5704) bound^G1210^(G5772) in^G1722 heaven^G3772: and^G2532 whatsoever^G3739^G1437 thou shalt loose^G3089^(G5661) on^G1909 earth^G1093 shall be^G2071^(G5704) loosed^G3089^(G5772) in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

²⁰ Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.

KJVThen^G5119 charged he^G1291^(G5668) his^G846 disciples^G3101 that^G2443 they should tell^G2036^(G5632) no man^G3367 that^G3754 he^G846 was^G2076^(G5748) Jesus^G2424 the Christ^G5547.

²¹ From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

KJVFrom^G575 that time forth^G5119 began^G756^(G5662) Jesus^G2424 to shew^G1166^(G5721) unto his^G846 disciples^G3101, how that^G3754 he^G846 must^G1163^(G5748) go^G565^(G5629) unto^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414, and^G2532 suffer^G3958^(G5629) many things^G4183 of^G575 the elders^G4245 and^G2532 chief priests^G749 and^G2532 scribes^G1122, and^G2532 be killed^G615^(G5683), and^G2532 be raised again^G1453^(G5683) the third^G5154 day^G2250.

²² Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”

KJVThen^G2532 Peter^G4074 took^G4355^(G5642) him^G846, and began^G756^(G5662) to rebuke^G2008^(G5721) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Be it far^G2436 from thee^G4671, Lord^G2962: this^G5124 shall^G2071 not^G3364 be^G2071^(G5704) unto thee^G4671.

²³ But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”

KJVBut^G1161 he turned^G4762^(G5651), and said^G2036^(G5627) unto Peter^G4074, Get thee^G5217^(G5720) behind^G3694 me^G3450, Satan^G4567: thou^G1488^(G5748) art^G3754 an offence^G4625 unto me^G3450: for thou savourest^G5426^(G5719) not^G3756 the things^G3588 that be of God^G2316, but^G235 those that be of men^G444.

²⁴ Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

KJVThen^G5119 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 unto his^G846 disciples^G3101, If any^G1536 man will^G2309^(G5719) come^G2064^(G5629) after^G3694 me^G3450, let him deny^G533^(G5663) himself^G1438, and^G2532 take up^G142^(G5657) his^G846 cross^G4716, and^G2532 follow^G190^(G5720) me^G3427.

²⁵ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.

KJVFor^G1063 whosoever^G3739^G302 will^G2309^(G5725) save^G4982^(G5658) his^G846 life^G5590 shall lose^G622^(G5692) it^G846: and^G1161 whosoever^G3739^G302 will lose^G622^(G5661) his^G846 life^G5590 for^G1752 my^G1700 sake^G1752 shall find^G2147^(G5692) it^G846.

²⁶ For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

KJVFor^G1063 what^G5101 is a man^G444 profited^G5623^(G5743), if^G1437 he shall gain^G2770^(G5661) the whole^G3650 world^G2889, and^G1161 lose^G2210^(G5686) his own^G846 soul^G5590? or^G2228 what^G5101 shall a man^G444 give^G1325^(G5692) in exchange^G465 for his^G846 soul^G5590?

²⁷ For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will give to everyone according to his deeds.

KJVFor^G1063 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 shall^G3195^(G5719) come^G2064^(G5738) in^G1722 the glory^G1391 of his^G846 Father^G3962 with^G3326 his^G846 angels^G32; and^G2532 then^G5119 he shall reward^G591^(G5692) every man^G1538 according^G2596 to his^G846 works^G4234.

²⁸ Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”

KJVVerily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, There be^G1526^(G5748) some^G5100 standing^G2476^(G5761) here^G5602, which^G3748 shall^G1089 not^G3364 taste^G1089^(G5667) of death^G2288, till^G302^G2193 they see^G1492^(G5632) the Son^G5207 of man^G444 coming^G2064^(G5740) in^G1722 his^G846 kingdom^G932.

WEB·Matthew 15

¹Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,

KJVThen^G5119 came^G4334^(G5736) to Jesus^G2424 scribes^G1122 and^G2532 Pharisees^G5330, which were of^G575 Jerusalem^G2414, saying^G3004^(G5723),

² “Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat bread.”

KJVWhy^G1302 do thy^G4675 disciples^G3101 transgress^G3845^(G5719) the tradition^G3862 of the elders^G4245? for^G1063 they wash^G3538^(G5731) not^G3756 their^G846 hands^G5495 when^G3752 they eat^G2068^(G5725) bread^G740.

³ He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Why^G1302 do ye^G5210 also^G2532 transgress^G3845^(G5719) the commandment^G1785 of God^G2316 by^G1223 your^G5216 tradition^G3862?

⁴ For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’

KJVFor^G1063 God^G2316 commanded^G1781^(G5662), saying^G3004^(G5723), Honour^G5091^(G5720) thy^G4675 father^G3962 and^G2532 mother^G3384: and^G2532, He that curseth^G2551^(G5723) father^G3962 or^G2228 mother^G3384, let him die^G5053^(G5720) the death^G2288.

⁵ But you say, ‘Whoever may tell his father or his mother, “Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,”

KJVBut^G1161 ye^G5210 say^G3004^(G5719), Whosoever^G3739^G302 shall say^G2036^(G5632) to his father^G3962 or^G2228 his mother^G3384, It is a gift^G1435, by^G1537 whatsoever^G3739^G1437 thou mightest be profited^G5623^(G5686) by me^G1700;

⁶ he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.

KJVAnd^G2532 honour^G5091^(G5661) not^G3364 his^G846 father^G3962 or^G2228 his^G846 mother^G3384, he shall be free. Thus^G2532 have ye made^G208 the commandment^G1785 of God^G2316 of none effect^G208^(G5656) by^G1223 your^G5216 tradition^G3862.

⁷ You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

KJVYe hypocrites^G5273, well^G2573 did^G4395 Esaias^G2268 prophesy^G4395^(G5656) of^G4012 you^G5216, saying^G3004^(G5723),

⁸ ‘These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

KJVThis^G3778 people^G2992 draweth nigh^G1448^(G5719) unto me^G3427 with their^G846 mouth^G4750, and^G2532 honoureth^G5091^(G5719) me^G3165 with their lips^G5491; but^G1161 their^G846 heart^G2588 is^G568^(G5719) far^G4206 from^G575 me^G1700.

⁹ And they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”

KJVBut^G1161 in vain^G3155 they do worship^G4576^(G5736) me^G3165, teaching^G1321^(G5723) for doctrines^G1319 the commandments^G1778 of men^G444.

¹⁰ He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand.

KJVAnd^G2532 he called^G4341^(G5666) the multitude^G3793, and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Hear^G191^(G5720), and^G2532 understand^G4920^(G5720):

¹¹ That which enters into the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”

KJVNot^G3756 that which goeth^G1525^(G5740) into^G1519 the mouth^G4750 defileth^G2840^(G5719) a man^G444; but^G235 that which cometh^G1607^(G5740) out of^G1537 the mouth^G4750, this^G5124 defileth^G2840^(G5719) a man^G444.

¹² Then the disciples came and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”

KJVThen^G5119 came^G4334^(G5631) his^G846 disciples^G3101, and said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Knowest thou^G1492^(G5758) that^G3754 the Pharisees^G5330 were offended^G4624^(G5681), after they heard^G191^(G5660) this saying^G3056?

¹³ But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), Every^G3956 plant^G5451, which^G3739 my^G3450 heavenly^G3770 Father^G3962 hath^G5452 not^G3756 planted^G5452^(G5656), shall be rooted up^G1610^(G5701).

¹⁴ Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”

KJVLet^G863 them^G846 alone^G863^(G5628): they be^G1526^(G5748) blind^G5185 leaders^G3595 of the blind^G5185. And^G1161 if^G1437 the blind^G5185 lead^G3594^(G5725) the blind^G5185, both^G297 shall fall^G4098^(G5699) into^G1519 the ditch^G999.

¹⁵ Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”

KJVThen^G1161 answered^G611^(G5679) Peter^G4074 and said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Declare^G5419^(G5657) unto us^G2254 this^G5026 parable^G3850.

¹⁶ So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand?

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627), Are^G2075^(G5748) ye^G5210 also^G2532 yet^G188 without understanding^G801?

¹⁷ Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly and then out of the body?

KJVDo^G3539 not^G3768 ye^G3539 yet^G3768 understand^G3539^(G5719), that^G3754 whatsoever^G3956 entereth in^G1531^(G5740) at^G1519 the mouth^G4750 goeth^G5562^(G5719) into^G1519 the belly^G2836, and^G2532 is cast out^G1544^(G5743) into^G1519 the draught^G856?

¹⁸ But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.

KJVBut^G1161 those things which^G3588 proceed^G1607^(G5740) out of^G1537 the mouth^G4750 come forth^G1831^(G5736) from^G1537 the heart^G2588; and they^G2548 defile^G2840^(G5719) the man^G444.

¹⁹ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.

KJVFor^G1063 out of^G1537 the heart^G2588 proceed^G1831^(G5736) evil^G4190 thoughts^G1261, murders^G5408, adulteries^G3430, fornications^G4202, thefts^G2829, false witness^G5577, blasphemies^G988:

²⁰ These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.”

KJVThese^G5023 are^G2076^(G5748) the things which^G3588 defile^G2840^(G5723) a man^G444: but^G1161 to eat^G5315^(G5629) with unwashen^G449 hands^G5495 defileth^G2840^(G5719) not^G3756 a man^G444.

²¹ Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), a woman^G1135 of Canaan^G5478 came^G1831^(G5631) out of^G575 the same^G1565 coasts^G3725, and cried^G2905^(G5656) unto him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Have mercy^G1653^(G5657) on me^G3165, O Lord^G2962, thou Son^G5207 of David^G1138; my^G3450 daughter^G2364 is grievously^G2560 vexed with a devil^G1139^(G5736).

²³ But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5662) her^G846 not^G3756 a word^G3056. And^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 came^G4334^(G5631) and besought^G2065^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Send^G630 her^G846 away^G630^(G5657); for^G3754 she crieth^G2896^(G5719) after^G3693 us^G2257.

²⁴ But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), I am^G649 not^G3756 sent^G649^(G5648) but^G1508 unto^G1519 the lost^G622^(G5756) sheep^G4263 of the house^G3624 of Israel^G2474.

²⁵ But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”

KJVThen^G1161 came she^G2064^(G5631) and worshipped^G4352^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, help^G997^(G5720) me^G3427.

²⁶ But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), It is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 meet^G2570 to take^G2983^(G5629) the children's^G5043 bread^G740, and^G2532 to cast^G906^(G5629) it to dogs^G2952.

²⁷ But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”

KJVAnd^G1161 she said^G2036^(G5627), Truth^G3483, Lord^G2962: yet^G2532^G1063 the dogs^G2952 eat^G2068^(G5719) of^G575 the crumbs^G5589 which^G3588 fall^G4098^(G5723) from^G575 their^G846 masters^G2962' table^G5132.

²⁸ Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.

KJVThen^G5119 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto her^G846, O^G5599 woman^G1135, great^G3173 is thy^G4675 faith^G4102: be it^G1096^(G5676) unto thee^G4671 even as^G5613 thou wilt^G2309^(G5719). And^G2532 her^G846 daughter^G2364 was made whole^G2390^(G5681) from^G575 that very^G1565 hour^G5610.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 departed^G3327^(G5631) from thence^G1564, and came^G2064^(G5627) nigh unto^G3844 the sea^G2281 of Galilee^G1056; and^G2532 went up^G305^(G5631) into^G1519 a mountain^G3735, and sat down^G2521^(G5711) there^G1563.

³⁰ Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them,

KJVAnd^G2532 great^G4183 multitudes^G3793 came^G4334^(G5656) unto him^G846, having^G2192^(G5723) with^G3326 them those that were^G1438 lame^G5560, blind^G5185, dumb^G2974, maimed^G2948, and^G2532 many^G4183 others^G2087, and^G2532 cast^G4496 them^G846 down^G4496^(G5656) at^G3844 Jesus^G2424' feet^G4228; and^G2532 he healed^G2323^(G5656) them^G846:

³¹ so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, the injured healed, the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.

KJVInsomuch that^G5620 the multitude^G3793 wondered^G2296^(G5658), when they saw^G991^(G5723) the dumb^G2974 to speak^G2980^(G5723), the maimed^G2948 to be whole^G5199, the lame^G5560 to walk^G4043^(G5723), and^G2532 the blind^G5185 to see^G991^(G5723): and^G2532 they glorified^G1392^(G5656) the God^G2316 of Israel^G2474.

³² Jesus summoned his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have continued with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way.”

KJVThen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 called^G4341^(G5666) his^G846 disciples^G3101 unto him, and said^G2036^(G5627), I have compassion^G4697^(G5736) on^G1909 the multitude^G3793, because^G3754 they continue^G4357^(G5719) with me^G3427 now^G2235 three^G5140 days^G2250, and^G2532 have^G2192^(G5719) nothing^G3756^G5101 to eat^G5315^(G5632): and^G2532 I will^G2309^(G5719) not^G3756 send^G630 them^G846 away^G630^(G5658) fasting^G3523, lest^G3379 they faint^G1590^(G5686) in^G1722 the way^G3598.

³³ The disciples said to him, “Where could we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”

KJVAnd^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 say^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Whence^G4159 should we^G2254 have so much^G5118 bread^G740 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2047, as^G5620 to fill^G5526^(G5658) so great^G5118 a multitude^G3793?

³⁴ Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, How many^G4214 loaves^G740 have ye^G2192^(G5719)? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Seven^G2033, and^G2532 a few^G3641 little fishes^G2485.

³⁵ He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;

KJVAnd^G2532 he commanded^G2753^(G5656) the multitude^G3793 to sit down^G377^(G5629) on^G1909 the ground^G1093.

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G2983^(G5631) the seven^G2033 loaves^G740 and^G2532 the fishes^G2486, and gave thanks^G2168^(G5660), and brake^G2806^(G5656) them, and^G2532 gave^G1325^(G5656) to his^G846 disciples^G3101, and^G1161 the disciples^G3101 to the multitude^G3793.

³⁷ They all ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.

KJVAnd^G2532 they did^G5315 all^G3956 eat^G5315^(G5627), and^G2532 were filled^G5526^(G5681): and^G2532 they took up^G142^(G5656) of the broken^G2801 meat that was left^G4052^(G5723) seven^G2033 baskets^G4711 full^G4134.

³⁸ Those who ate were four thousand men, in addition to women and children.

KJVAnd^G1161 they that did eat^G2068^(G5723) were^G2258^(G5713) four thousand^G5070 men^G435, beside^G5565 women^G1135 and^G2532 children^G3813.
