恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 8:1-10

在那些日子,有一大群人,沒有什麼吃的了。耶穌叫過門徒來,給他們說:「我很憐憫這批群眾,因為他們同我在一起已經三天,也沒有什麼可吃的了。我若遣散他們空著肚子各自回家,他們必要在路上暈倒;況且他們中還有些是從遠處來的。」門徒回答說:「在這荒野裏,人從那裏能得餅,使這些人吃飽呢?」耶穌問他們說:「你們有多少餅?」他們說:「七個。」耶穌就吩咐群眾坐在地上,拿起那七個餅來,祝謝了,擘開,遞給他的門徒,叫他們分開;他們就給給群眾分開。又有幾條小魚,耶穌祝福後,也吩咐把這些小魚分開。人都吃飽了,把剩下來的碎塊收集了七籃子。人數約有四千;然後耶穌遣散了他們,即刻同門徒上船,來到了達瑪奴達境內。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 8:1-10

In those days when there again was a great crowd without anything to eat, Jesus summoned the disciples and said, “My heart is moved with pity for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will collapse on the way, and some of them have come a great distance.” His disciples answered him, “Where can anyone get enough bread to satisfy them here in this deserted place?” Still he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They replied, “Seven.” He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then, taking the seven loaves he gave thanks, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to distribute, and they distributed them to the crowd. They also had a few fish. He said the blessing over them and ordered them distributed also. They ate and were satisfied. They picked up the fragments left over–seven baskets. There were about four thousand people.
He dismissed the crowd and got into the boat with his disciples and came to the region of Dalmanutha.
