They sayde, seuen. 6 And he commaunded the people to sit downe on the grounde: And he toke the seuen loaues, and when he had geuen thankes, he brake, and gaue to his disciples, to set before them: And they dyd set them before the people. 7 And they hadde a fewe small fysshes: And when he had blessed, he commaunded them also to be set before them.
