Chapter 8

1


 

  In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and saith unto them,  

 

 

--

2


 

  I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:  

 

 

--

3


 

  And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.  

 

 

--

4


 

  And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these [men] with bread here in the wilderness?  

 

 

--

5


 

  And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.  

 

 

--

6


 

  And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before [them]; and they did set [them] before the people.  

 

 

--

7


 

  And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before [them].  

 

 

--

8


 

  So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken [meat] that was left seven baskets.  

 

 

--

9


 

  And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.  

 

 

--

10


 

  And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.  

 

 

--

11


 

  And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.  

 

 

--

12


 

  And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.  

 

 

--

13


 

  And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.  

 

 

--

14


 

  Now [the disciples] had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.  

 

 

--

15


 

  And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod.  

 

 

--

16


 

  And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have no bread.  

 

 

--

17


 

  And when Jesus knew [it], he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?  

 

 

--

18


 

  Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?  

 

 

--

19


 

  When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.  

 

 

--

20


 

  And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.  

 

 

--

21


 

  And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?  

 

 

--

22


 

  And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.  

 

 

--

23


 

  And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.  

 

 

--

24


 

  And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.  

 

 

--

25


 

  After that he put [his] hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.  

 

 

--

26


 

  And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.  

 

 

--

27


 

  And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?  

 

 

--

28


 

  And they answered, John the Baptist: but some [say], Elias; and others, One of the prophets.  

 

 

--

29


 

  And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.  

 

 

--

30


 

  And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.  

 

 

--

31


 

  And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and [of] the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.  

 

 

--

32


 

  And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.  

 

 

--

33


 

  But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.  

 

 

--

34


 

  And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.  

 

 

--

35


 

  For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.  

 

 

--

36


 

  For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?  

 

 

--

37


 

  Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?  

 

 

--

38


 

  Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
