施洗约翰之死

14 那时候,分封王希律听到耶稣的消息, 就对他的臣仆说:“这个人是施洗者[a]约翰从死人中复活了!所以这些能力在他里面做工。”

原来,希律为了他弟弟[b]菲利普的妻子希罗迪娅的缘故,拘捕了约翰,把他捆起来关进监狱。 这是因为约翰一直对他说:“你占有这妇人是不可以的。” 希律想要杀约翰,可是怕民众,因为他们认为约翰是先知。

到了希律生日的时候,希罗迪娅的女儿在众人面前跳舞,使希律非常喜悦, 故此王就起誓承诺,无论她求什么都给她。 女儿受母亲的指使,就说:“请把施洗者[c]约翰的头放在盘子里给我。” 王就忧忧愁愁,但因所起的誓,又因一同坐席的人,就下令给她。 10 于是派人去,在监狱里砍下了约翰的头, 11 把他的头放在盘子上,端给女孩,女孩就拿去给她母亲。 12 后来,约翰的门徒们前来把遗体领去埋葬了,又去告诉耶稣。

五饼二鱼

13 耶稣听了这事,就上船离开那里,独自到一个荒僻的地方去。众人听到了,就从各城镇徒步来跟随他。 14 耶稣下了船,看见一大群人,就对他们动了怜悯之心,使其中的病人痊愈。

15 黄昏的时候,门徒们来到耶稣面前,说:“这是个荒僻的地方,而且天已经晚了。请遣散人群,好让他们到村庄去为自己买些食物。”

16 但耶稣说:“他们不需要离开,你们给他们吃的吧。”

17 门徒们对耶稣说:“我们这里除了五个饼和两条鱼,就没有什么了。”

18 耶稣说:“拿到我这里来。” 19 于是耶稣吩咐众人坐在草地上,就拿起这五个饼和两条鱼,抬头望天,祝福了,然后掰开饼,递给门徒们,他们又分给众人。 20 大家都吃了,并且吃饱了。他们把剩下的碎块收拾起来,装满了十二个篮子。 21 吃的人,不算妇女和孩子,约有五千。

在水面上行走

22 耶稣立刻催促门徒们上船,要他们先往对岸去;这期间,他自己遣散了人群。 23 他遣散了人群以后,就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上,只有他一个人在那里。 24 那时,船已经离岸有几百公尺[d][e],由于逆风,被波浪冲击。 25 天快亮的时候[f],耶稣在湖面[g]上行走,向他们而去。 26 门徒们看见耶稣在湖面上行走,就惊慌不安,说:“是幽灵!”他们害怕得喊叫起来。

27 耶稣立刻对他们说:“鼓起勇气吧!是我,不要怕。”

28 彼得对他说:“主啊,如果是你,请吩咐我,从水面上走到你那里去。”

29 耶稣说:“你来吧!”

彼得就从船上下去,在水面上行走向耶稣那里去。 30 但是,他一看到风极大[h],就惧怕起来,开始往下沉,于是呼叫说:“主啊,救救我!”

31 耶稣立刻伸手拉住他,说:“小信的人哪,你为什么疑惑呢?” 32 他们一上船,风就停了。 33 船上的人都[i]拜耶稣,说:“你真是神的儿子!”

在革尼撒勒治病

34 他们渡过去,到革尼撒勒上岸。 35 那里的人一认出是耶稣,就派人到周围整个地区,把所有患病的都带到耶稣那里, 36 恳求耶稣只要让他们摸一下他的衣服穗子。凡是摸着的人,都得了救治。

The Death of John the Baptist

14 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard about the fame of Jesus; and he said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist, he has been raised from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him.” For Herod had seized John and bound him and put him in prison, for the sake of Hero′di-as, his brother Philip’s wife;[a] because John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.” And though he wanted to put him to death, he feared the people, because they held him to be a prophet. But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Hero′di-as danced before the company, and pleased Herod, so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask. Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.” And the king was sorry; but because of his oaths and his guests he commanded it to be given; 10 he sent and had John beheaded in the prison, 11 and his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother. 12 And his disciples came and took the body and buried it; and they went and told Jesus.

Feeding the Five Thousand

13 Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a lonely place apart. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns. 14 As he went ashore he saw a great throng; and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick. 15 When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a lonely place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves.” 16 Jesus said, “They need not go away; you give them something to eat.” 17 They said to him, “We have only five loaves here and two fish.” 18 And he said, “Bring them here to me.” 19 Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass; and taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 20 And they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces left over. 21 And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

Jesus Walks on the Water

22 Then he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, 24 but the boat by this time was many furlongs distant from the land,[b] beaten by the waves; for the wind was against them. 25 And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. 26 But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear. 27 But immediately he spoke to them, saying, “Take heart, it is I; have no fear.”

28 And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, bid me come to you on the water.” 29 He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus; 30 but when he saw the wind,[c] he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” 31 Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, “O man of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”[d]

Jesus Heals the Sick in Gennesaret

34 And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennes′aret. 35 And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent round to all that region and brought to him all that were sick, 36 and besought him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

施洗者约翰之死

14 分封王希律听见耶稣的名声, 就对臣仆说:“这个人是施洗者约翰!他从死里复活了,所以能够行这些神迹。”

原来希律为他兄弟腓力的妻子希罗底的缘故,拘捕了约翰,把他捆绑起来关在监里。 因为约翰曾多次对他说:“你娶这个妇人是不对的。” 他想杀掉约翰,但怕触怒百姓,因为他们都认为约翰是先知。

在希律的生日那天,希罗底的女儿出来在众人面前跳舞。希律非常高兴, 就起誓答应她无论要什么都可以。 她受了母亲的指使,说:“请把施洗者约翰的头放在盘子里送给我。” 希律感到为难,但既然在众宾客面前起了誓,只好下令给她。 10 他派人到监里砍了约翰的头, 11 放在盘子里送给她,她转送给她母亲。 12 约翰的门徒把尸体领回安葬后,就去告诉耶稣。

13 耶稣听见这个消息,就独自坐船退到一处偏僻的地方。众人得知后,就从各城步行来跟随祂。

耶稣使五千人吃饱

14 耶稣上了岸,看见一大群人,心里怜悯他们,就治好了他们当中的病人。 15 黄昏时,门徒过来对耶稣说:“这里是荒郊野外,天又晚了,请遣散众人,好让他们到村庄去自己买些吃的。”

16 耶稣回答说:“他们不用离开,你们给他们吃的吧。”

17 门徒答道:“我们这里只有五个饼和两条鱼。”

18 耶稣说:“拿来给我。”

19 于是,祂叫众人坐在草地上,然后拿起那五个饼和两条鱼,举目望着天祝谢后,就掰开饼递给门徒,让他们分给众人。 20 大家都吃饱了,把剩下的零碎收拾起来,竟装满了十二个篮子。 21 当时吃饭的,除了妇女和小孩,约有五千男人。

耶稣在水上行走

22 随后,耶稣催门徒上船,叫他们先渡到湖对岸,祂则遣散众人。 23 待众人都离开了,祂就独自上山去祷告,在那里一直待到晚上。

24 那时,门徒的船离岸已远,遇到逆风,船身被波浪撞击得摇摆不定。 25 天将破晓的时候,耶稣从水面上向门徒走去。 26 门徒看见有人在湖面上走,都吓坏了,说:“是幽灵!”他们害怕得又喊又叫。

27 耶稣立刻对他们说:“放心吧!是我,不要怕。”

28 彼得说:“主啊!如果真的是你,就叫我从水面上走到你那里。”

29 耶稣说:“好,你来吧!”

于是,彼得就从船上下去,走在湖面上,要去耶稣那里。 30 他看到风浪很大,就害怕起来,身体开始往下沉,便大喊:“主啊,救我!”

31 耶稣马上伸手拉住他,说:“你信心太小了!为什么怀疑呢?”

32 他们上了船,风浪就平静了。 33 船上的人都敬拜祂,说:“你真是上帝的儿子。”

34 他们渡到湖对岸,来到革尼撒勒。 35 当地的人认出是耶稣,就派人去把附近所有的病人都带到祂面前, 36 求耶稣让他们摸一摸祂衣裳的穗边,所有摸过的病人都好了。

John the Baptist Beheaded(A)

14 At that time Herod(B) the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus,(C) and he said to his attendants, “This is John the Baptist;(D) he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison(E) because of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,(F) for John had been saying to him: “It is not lawful for you to have her.”(G) Herod wanted to kill John, but he was afraid of the people, because they considered John a prophet.(H)

On Herod’s birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for the guests and pleased Herod so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.” The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he ordered that her request be granted 10 and had John beheaded(I) in the prison. 11 His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother. 12 John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it.(J) Then they went and told Jesus.

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand(K)(L)

13 When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them(M) and healed their sick.(N)

15 As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16 Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

17 “We have here only five loaves(O) of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18 “Bring them here to me,” he said. 19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves.(P) Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. 20 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 21 The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

Jesus Walks on the Water(Q)(R)

22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 23 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray.(S) Later that night, he was there alone, 24 and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25 Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,”(T) they said, and cried out in fear.

27 But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage!(U) It is I. Don’t be afraid.”(V)

28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

29 “Come,” he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,”(W) he said, “why did you doubt?”

32 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 33 Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”(X)

34 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret. 35 And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to him 36 and begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak,(Y) and all who touched it were healed.

Ang Pagpatay kang Juan nga Tigbautismo

(Mar. 6:14-29; Luc. 9:7-9)

14 Niadtong panahona si Herodes nga tigdumala sa Galilea nakadungog bahin kang Jesus. Busa miingon siya sa iyang mga opisyal, “Siya mao si Juan nga tigbautismo. Nabanhaw siya! Mao kanay hinungdan nga may gahom siya sa pagbuhat ug mga milagro.”

3-4 Kaniadto, gipadakop ni Herodes si Juan tungod kay giingnan siya niini, “Supak sa Kasugoan ang imong pagpakigpuyo uban kang Herodias.” Kay si Herodias asawa man ni Felipe nga igsoon ni Herodes. Tungod sa pagdumot ni Herodias kang Juan, gipadakop siya ni Herodes ug gipapriso. Ipapatay unta ni Herodes si Juan, apan nahadlok siya sa mga Judio tungod kay giila nila si Juan nga propeta.

Pag-abot sa adlawng natawhan ni Herodes, misayaw ang dalaga nga anak ni Herodias alang sa mga bisita nga nanambong didto, ug nalipay kaayo si Herodes. Busa miingon siya, “Sige, pangayo kanakog bisan unsa, ug ipanumpa ko nga ihatag ko gayod kana kanimo.”

Sa sugyot sa iyang inahan miingon ang dalaga, “Ihatag karon kanako ang ulo ni Juan nga tigbautismo nga nakabutang sa bandehado.” Sa pagkadungog niadto ni Haring Herodes nasubo gayod siya. Apan tungod kay nakapanumpa man siya ug nadunggan mismo sa iyang mga bisita, nagsugo siya nga buhaton ang gipangayo sa dalaga. 10 Gipapunggotan niya ug ulo si Juan didto sa prisohan. 11 Ug unya gibutang nila sa bandehado ang ulo ug gidala ngadto sa dalaga, ug gihatag usab niya kini ngadto sa iyang inahan. 12 Ang lawas ni Juan gikuha sa iyang mga tinun-an ug ilang gilubong. Human niadto, nangadto sila kang Jesus ug gisugilon ang nahitabo kang Juan.

Gipakaon ni Jesus ang 5,000 ka mga Tawo

(Mar. 6:30-44; Luc. 9:10-17; Juan 6:1-14)

13 Sa pagkadungog niini ni Jesus, misakay siya sa sakayan ug miadto sa kamingawan. Sa pagkadungog sa mga tawo nga gikan sa nagkalain-lain nga mga lungsod nga si Jesus migikan na, namaktas sila aron apason siya. 14 Sa pagkanaog ni Jesus sa sakayan, nakita niya ang daghan kaayo nga mga tawo. Nalooy kaayo siya kanila, busa giayo niya ang mga masakiton nga ilang gidala didto.

15 Sa pagkahapon na, miduol kaniya ang iyang mga tinun-an. Miingon sila, “Hapit na mosalop ang adlaw, ug ania kita dinhi sa kamingawan. Paadtoa na ang mga tawo ngadto sa mga baryo aron makapalit sila sa ilang pagkaon.” 16 Miingon si Jesus kanila, “Dili na kinahanglan nga paadtoon pa sila. Kamo mismo ang mohatag kanila ug pagkaon.” 17 Mitubag sila, “Aduna kitay lima lang ka buok nga pan ug duha ka isda.” 18 Miingon si Jesus kanila, “Dad-a ninyo dinhi kanako.” 19 Gipalingkod niya ang mga tawo diha sa sagbot. Unya gikuha niya ang lima ka pan ug duha ka isda, ug mihangad siya sa langit ug nagpasalamat sa Dios. Unya gipikas-pikas niya ang mga pan ug gihatag ngadto sa iyang mga tinun-an ug giapod-apod nila kini sa mga tawo. 20 Nakakaon silang tanan ug nangabusog. Human makakaon ang tanan, gitigom nila ang mga sobra, ug 12 pa ka bukag ang napuno. 21 Mga 5,000 gayod ka mga lalaki ang nakakaon, wala pay labot niana ang mga babaye ug mga bata.

Milakaw si Jesus Ibabaw sa Tubig

(Mar. 6:45-52; Juan 6:15-21)

22 Human niadto, gisugo ni Jesus ang iyang mga tinun-an nga mosakay sa sakayan ug mouna didto sa tabok samtang gipapauli niya ang mga tawo. 23 Sa dihang nakagikan na ang mga tawo mitungas siya nga nagainusara didto sa bukid aron mag-ampo. Nagabin-an siya didto. 24 Niadtong tungora ang sakayan nga gisakyan sa iyang mga tinun-an didto na sa tunga sa lawod ug gikuso-kuso sa mga balod, tungod kay pasugat man sila sa hangin. 25 Kadlawon na sa dihang miadto si Jesus kanila nga nagalakaw ibabaw sa tubig. 26 Pagkakita sa iyang mga tinun-an nga may nagalakaw sa ibabaw sa tubig nangahadlok sila, ug naninggit, “Kalag!” 27 Diha-diha miingon si Jesus kanila, “Ayaw kamo kahadlok, ako kini! Pagmalig-on kamo!” 28 Unya miingon si Pedro, “Ginoo, kon ikaw kana, paanhaa ako diha kanimo nga maglakaw usab ibabaw sa tubig.” 29 Miingon si Jesus kaniya, “Sige, dali!” Busa nanaog si Pedro sa sakayan ug milakaw ibabaw sa tubig paingon kang Jesus. 30 Apan sa dihang namatikdan ni Pedro nga kusog ang hangin, nahadlok siya ug inanay siya nga naunlod. Busa misinggit siya, “Ginoo, luwasa ako!” 31 Diha-diha gigunitan siya ni Jesus ug giingnan, “Kulang ang imong pagtuo! Ngano bang nagduhaduha ka man?” 32 Sa pagsakay nilang duha sa sakayan mihunong dayon ang hangin. 33 Gisimba siya sa iyang mga tinun-an didto sa sakayan nga nagaingon, “Tinuod gayod nga ikaw ang Anak sa Dios.”

Gipang-ayo ni Jesus ang mga Masakiton sa Genesaret

(Mar. 6:53-56)

34 Sa pag-abot nila didto sa tabok, midunggo sila sa Genesaret. 35 Nailhan si Jesus sa mga tawo didto ug gipahibalo nila sa kasikbit nga mga dapit nga anaa si Jesus. Busa gipangdala sa mga tawo ang tanang mga masakiton ngadto kaniya. 36 Gihangyo nila si Jesus nga tugotan niya ang mga masakiton nga mohikap kaniya bisan sa sidsid lang sa iyang bisti. Ug ang tanan nga nakahikap nangaayo.
