← Matthew 15:32 [words of Jesus]	Matthew 15:33 (KJV)	Matthew 15:34 [words of Jesus] →
Then Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.	And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?	And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.

Strong's References

• G740 — ἄρτος (ártos, ar'-tos): bread, a loaf, food — from αἴρω; bread (as raised) or a loaf:--(shew-)bread, loaf.
• G846 — αὐτός (autós, ow-tos'): he, she, it, they, them, same — from the particle (perhaps akin to the base of ἀήρ through the idea of a baffling wind) (backward); the reflexive pronoun self, used (alone or in the comparative ἑαυτοῦ) of the third person , and (with the proper personal pronoun) of the other persons:--her, it(-self), one, the other, (mine) own, said, (self-), the) same, ((him-, my-, thy- )self, (your-)selves, she, that, their(-s), them(-selves), there(-at, - by, -in, -into, -of, -on, -with), they, (these) things, this (man), those, together, very, which.
