2 Kings 4:3-7
4:3 He said, “Go and ask all your neighbors for empty containers.
Get as many as you can.
4:4 Go and close the door behind you and your sons. Pour the olive oil into all the containers;
set aside each one when you have filled it.”
4:5 So she left him and closed the door behind her and her sons. As they were bringing the containers to her, she was pouring the olive oil.
4:6 When the containers were full, she said to one of her sons,
“Bring me another container.” But he answered her, “There are no more.” Then the olive oil stopped flowing.
4:7 She went and told the prophet.
He said, “Go, sell the olive oil. Repay your creditor, and then you and your sons can live off the rest of the profit.”

21:9 When they got out on the beach, they saw a charcoal fire ready with a fish placed on it, and bread.
21:10 Jesus said, “Bring some of the fish you have just now caught.”
21:11 So Simon Peter went aboard and pulled the net to shore. It was full of large fish, one hundred fifty-three, but although there were so many, the net was not torn.
