1All you that thirst, come to the waters: and you that have no money make haste, buy, and eat: come ye, buy wine and milk without money, and without any price.

2Why do you spend money for that which is not bread, and your labour for that which doth not satisfy you? Hearken diligently to me, and eat that which is good, and your soul shall be delighted in fatness.

3Incline your ear and come to me: hear and your soul shall live, and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the faithful mercies of David.

8The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.

9The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

15The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.

16Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.

17The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works.

18The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him: to all that call upon him in truth.

35Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? Or distress? Or famine? Or nakedness? Or danger? Or persecution? Or the sword?

37But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.

38For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,

39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

4Who answered and said: It is written, Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.

13Which when Jesus had heard, he retired from thence by a boat, into a desert place apart, and the multitudes having heard of it, followed him on foot out of the cities.

14And he coming forth saw a great multitude, and had compassion on them, and healed their sick.

15And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying: This is a desert place, and the hour is now passed: send away the multitudes, that going into the towns, they may buy themselves victuals.

16But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give you them to eat.

17They answered him: We have not here, but five loaves, and two fishes.

18Who said to them: Bring them hither to me.

19And when he had commanded the multitude to sit down upon the grass, he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.

20And they did all eat, and were filled. And they took up what remained, twelve full baskets of fragments.

21And the number of them that did eat, was five thousand men, besides women and children.
