For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. 32 And they went away in the boat to a desert place apart.

33 And the people saw them going, and many knew them, and they ran there together on foot from all the cities, and outwent them.

34 And he came forth and saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
