31 And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and (A)they had no leisure even to eat. 32 (B)And they went away in (C)the boat to a desolate place by themselves. 33 Now many saw them going and (D)recognized them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. 34 When he went ashore he (E)saw a great crowd, and (F)he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. 35 And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is now late. 36 (G)Send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”
