Mark 8
8In those days when there was again a great crowd without anything to eat, he called his disciples and said to them,G1722G1565G2250G3793G5607G3827G2532G2192G3361G5101G5315G2424G4341G846G3101G3004G8462"I have compassion for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat.G4697G1909G3793G3754G4357G2235G4357G3427G5140G2250G2532G2192G3756G5101G53153If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way—and some of them have come from a great distance."G2532G1437G630G846G630G3523G1519G846G3624G1590G1722G3598G1063G5100G846G2240G31134His disciples replied, "How can one feed these people with bread here in the desert?"G2532G846G3101G611G846G4159G1410G5100G5526G5128G740G5602G1909G20475He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven."G2532G1905G846G4214G740G2192G1161G2036G20336Then he ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves, and after giving thanks he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute; and they distributed them to the crowd.G2532G3853G3793G377G1909G1093G2532G2983G2033G740G2168G2806G2532G1325G846G3101G2443G3908G2532G3908G37937They had also a few small fish; and after blessing them, he ordered that these too should be distributed.G2532G2192G3641G2485G2532G2127G2036G3908G846G2532G39088They ate and were filled; and they took up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets full.G1161G5315G2532G5526G2532G142G2801G4051G2033G47119Now there were about four thousand people. And he sent them away.G1161G5315G2258G5613G5070G2532G630G846G63010And immediately he got into the boat with his disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.G2532G2112G1684G1519G4143G3326G846G3101G2064G1519G3313G114811The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, asking him for a sign from heaven, to test him.G2532G5330G1831G2532G756G4802G846G2212G3844G846G4592G575G3772G3985G84612And he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, "Why does this generation ask for a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation."G2532G389G846G4151G3004G5101G1934G3778G1074G1934G4592G281G3004G5213G1487G4592G1325G5026G107413And he left them, and getting into the boat again, he went across to the other side.G2532G863G846G1684G1519G4143G3825G565G1519G400814Now the disciples had forgotten to bring any bread; and they had only one loaf with them in the boat.G2532G1950G2983G740G2532G3756G2192G1722G4143G3326G1438G1508G1520G74015And he cautioned them, saying, "Watch out—beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod."G2532G1291G846G3004G3708G991G575G2219G5330G2532G2219G226416They said to one another, "It is because we have no bread."G2532G1260G4314G240G3004G3754G2192G3756G74017And becoming aware of it, Jesus said to them, "Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened?G2532G2424G1097G3004G846G5101G1260G3754G2192G3756G740G3539G3768G3761G4920G2192G5216G2588G2089G445618Do you have eyes, and fail to see? Do you have ears, and fail to hear? And do you not remember?G2192G3788G991G3756G2532G2192G3775G191G3756G2532G3421G3756G342119When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you collect?" They said to him, "Twelve."G3753G2806G4002G740G1519G4000G4214G2894G4134G2801G142G3004G846G142720"And the seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you collect?" And they said to him, "Seven."G1161G3753G2033G1519G5070G4214G4711G4138G2801G142G1161G2036G203321Then he said to them, "Do you not yet understand?"G2532G3004G846G4459G4920G3756G492022They came to Bethsaida. Some people brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.G2532G2064G1519G966G2532G5342G5185G846G2532G3870G846G2443G680G84623He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village; and when he had put saliva on his eyes and laid his hands on him, he asked him, "Can you see anything?"G2532G1949G5185G5495G1806G846G1854G2968G2532G4429G1519G846G3659G2007G5495G846G1905G846G1536G991G153624And the man looked up and said, "I can see people, but they look like trees, walking."G2532G308G3004G3754G991G444G5613G3708G1186G404325Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again; and he looked intently and his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly.G1534G2007G5495G3825G1909G846G3788G2532G4160G846G308G2532G600G2532G1689G537G508126Then he sent him away to his home, saying, "Do not even go into the village."G2532G649G846G649G1519G846G3624G3004G3366G1525G1519G2968G3366G2036G5100G1722G296827Jesus went on with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"G2532G2424G1831G2532G846G3101G1519G2968G2542G5376G2532G1722G3598G1905G846G3101G3004G846G5101G3004G444G3004G3165G151128And they answered him, "John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets."G1161G611G2491G910G1161G243G2243G2532G243G1520G439629He asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Messiah."G2532G846G3004G846G1161G5101G3004G5210G3165G1511G1161G4074G611G3004G846G4771G1488G554730And he sternly ordered them not to tell anyone about him.G2532G2008G846G2443G3004G3367G4012G84631Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.G2532G756G1321G846G3754G5207G444G1163G3958G4183G2532G593G575G4245G2532G749G2532G1122G2532G615G2532G3326G5140G2250G45032He said all this quite openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.G2532G2980G3056G3954G2532G4074G4355G846G756G2008G84633But turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things."G1161G1994G2532G1492G846G3101G2008G4074G3004G5217G3694G3450G4567G3754G5426G3756G2316G235G44434He called the crowd with his disciples, and said to them, "If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.G2532G4341G3793G4862G846G3101G2036G846G3748G2309G2064G3694G3450G533G1438G2532G142G846G4716G2532G190G342735For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel, will save it.G1063G3739G302G2309G4982G846G5590G622G846G1161G3739G302G622G846G5590G1752G1700G2532G2098G3778G4982G84636For what will it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life?G1063G5101G5623G444G1437G2770G3650G2889G2532G2210G846G559037Indeed, what can they give in return for their life?G2228G5101G1325G444G1325G465G846G559038Those who are ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of them the Son of Man will also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."G3739G302G1063G1870G3165G2532G1699G3056G1722G5026G3428G2532G268G1074G846G2532G1870G5207G444G1870G3752G2064G1722G1391G846G3962G3326G40G32
