Mark 6:30-37

³⁰The apostles returned and gathered around Jesus. They told him all they had done and what they had taught.

³¹“Come with me, just yourselves. We'll go to a quiet place, and rest for a while,” Jesus told them, because there was so much coming and going that they didn't even have time to eat.

³²So they went by boat to a quiet place to be alone.

³³But people saw them leaving and recognized them. So people from all the surrounding towns ran ahead and got there before them.

³⁴When Jesus got off the boat he saw a huge crowd, and he felt pity for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them about many things.

³⁵It was getting late in the day and Jesus' disciples came to him. They told him, “We're miles from anywhere, and it's really late.

³⁶You should tell the people to go and buy themselves something to eat in the villages and countryside nearby.”

³⁷But Jesus replied, “You give them something to eat.” “What? We'd need more than six month's pay to buy bread to feed all these people,” the disciples replied.
