Shall the flocksª and the herdsª be slainª° for them, to sufficeª° them? or¹¹ shall all¹ the fishª of the seaª be gathered togetherª° for them, to sufficeª° them?" {Num 11:21-22} + "And his servitorª° said,ª° What,¹ should I setª° this¹ beforeª an hundredª men?ª He said¹ again,²° Giveª° the people,ª that they may eat:ª° for¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª They shall eat,ª° and shall leaveª° [thereof]." {2Kg 4:43} + "¹ He¹ answeredª° and² saidª° unto them,ª Giveª° yeª themª to eat.²° And²¹ they¹ sayª° unto him,ª Shall we goª° and buyª° two hundredª pennyworthª of bread,ª andª giveª° themª to eat?ª°" {Mrk 6:37}
