Truly, I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation.” ¹³ And ^zhe left them, got into the boat again, and went to the other side.

Mark 8:14   Now they had forgotten to bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the boat. ¹⁵ And he cautioned them, saying, “Watch out; ^abeware of ^bthe leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of ^cHerod.”^{2 16} And they began discussing with one another the fact that they had no bread. ¹⁷ And ^dJesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why are you discussing the fact that you have no bread? ^eDo you not yet perceive ^for understand? ^fAre your hearts hardened? ^{18 g}Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember? ¹⁹ When I broke ^hthe five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They said to him, “Twelve.” ²⁰ “And ⁱthe seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.” ²¹ And he said to them, “Do you not yet understand?”
