And gave thanks

As they were eating he took a loaf and after the blessing he broke it; then he gave it to the disciples saying, "Take and eat this, it means my body."

Then he took a loaf, and after thanking God he broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This means my body given up for your sake; do this in memory of me."

And as he lay at table with them he took the loaf, blessed it, broke it and handed it to them.

Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks to God, and distributed them to those who were reclining; so too with the fish, as much as they wanted.

With these words he took a loaf and after thanking God, in presence of them all, broke it and began to eat.

the man who values a particular day does so to the Lord. The eater eats to the Lord, since he thanks God for his food; the non-eater abstains to the Lord, and he too thanks God.

So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, let it be all done for the glory of God.
