Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Chapter 8
1
In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
2
I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
3
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.
4
And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
6
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.
8
So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
10
And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11
And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
12
And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
14
Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.
15
And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
17
And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
19
When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
20
And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
23
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
25
After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
26
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
27
And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
29
And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
31
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
33
But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
34
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
