Kong Herodes funderer over, hvem Jesus er(A)

14 Da kong Herodes[a] hørte om de mirakler, Jesus udførte, sagde han til sine tjenere: „Det må være Johannes Døber, der er vendt tilbage fra de døde. Det er derfor den slags overnaturlige kræfter virker gennem ham.”

3-5 Der var nemlig sket det, at Herodes efter pres fra Herodias havde ladet Johannes arrestere og sætte i fængsel. Herodias var egentlig gift med Filip, en bror til Herodes, men var flyttet sammen med kong Herodes. Det havde fået Johannes til at konfrontere kongen. „Du har ikke lov til at leve sammen med hende,” havde han sagt. Det blev Herodias så rasende over, at hun fik Herodes overtalt til at sætte Johannes i fængsel, og hun ville gerne have ham henrettet. Men det turde Herodes ikke, for alle folk anså Johannes for at være en stor profet.

En dag blev der holdt fødselsdagsfest for Herodes, og Herodias’ datter dansede for gæsterne. Herodes blev så begejstret, at han med en ed lovede at give hende hvad som helst, hun forlangte. Hendes mor pressede hende til at sige: „Giv mig Johannes Døbers hoved på et fad!” Kongen blev ilde til mode ved at høre det ønske, men fordi han havde svoret, og fordi han ikke ville trække sit løfte tilbage for øjnene af alle gæsterne, udstedte han de nødvendige ordrer, 10 og Johannes blev halshugget i fængslet. 11 Hans hoved blev bragt op i festsalen på et fad og overrakt til den unge pige, der gav det videre til sin mor.

12 Senere kom Johannes’ disciple og hentede hans lig og begravede det, hvorefter de gik hen til Jesus og fortalte, hvad der var sket.

Bespisningen af de 5000(B)

13 Da Jesus fik det at vide,[b] gik han op i en båd sammen med disciplene for at tage væk til et øde sted, hvor de kunne være alene. Men en masse mennesker fra de forskellige byer hørte, at han var taget videre, og de fulgte med ham til fods langs bredden af søen.

14 Da Jesus gik i land, så han en stor folkeskare. Han blev fyldt af medlidenhed og helbredte dem, der var syge.

15 Lidt før det blev mørkt, kom disciplene hen til ham. „Det er ved at blive sent,” sagde de, „og stedet her er øde. Du må hellere sende alle de mennesker bort, så de kan nå at tage ind til landsbyerne og købe noget mad.”

16 „Det er ikke nødvendigt,” svarede Jesus. „I kan give dem noget at spise!”

17 „Jamen, vi har kun fem brød og to fisk,” svarede disciplene.

18 „Godt! Kom med dem!” sagde Jesus.

19 Så bad han folk sætte sig i græsset. Derefter tog han de fem brød og de to fisk, så op mod himlen og takkede Gud for dem. Han brækkede brødene i stykker og begyndte at dele ud til disciplene, og disciplene gav maden videre til folkemængden. 20 Alle spiste og blev mætte. Og da de tiloversblevne stykker blev samlet sammen, fyldte de 12 kurve. 21 Der var omkring 5000 mænd, foruden kvinder og børn, som blev bespist.

Disciplenes tøvende tro(C)

22 Jesus gav straks disciplene besked på at gå op i båden og sejle i forvejen over til den anden side af søen, mens han sendte folkemængden bort. 23 Da han havde gjort det, gik han op på bjergskråningen for at være alene og bede.

24 Det var efterhånden blevet ud på natten. Jesus var alene på bjerget, mens disciplene var et godt stykke ude på søen, hvor de kæmpede mod bølgerne og en strid modvind.

25 Kort før daggry kom Jesus ud til dem, vandrende hen over vandet. 26 Da de så en skikkelse komme gående hen imod dem, skreg de af rædsel, for de troede, det var et spøgelse. 27 Men Jesus råbte til dem: „I skal ikke være bange—det er mig!”

28 Straks råbte Peter tilbage: „Hvis det virkelig er dig, Herre, så sig til mig, at jeg skal komme ud til dig på bølgerne.” 29 „Kom!” sagde Jesus.

Peter kravlede ud over bådens ræling og gik på vandet hen mod Jesus. 30 Men da han så stormens rasen omkring sig, blev han bange, og han begyndte at synke.

„Herre, red mig!” råbte han.

31 Øjeblikkelig rakte Jesus hånden ud og greb fat i ham. „Din tro er lille,” sagde Jesus. „Hvorfor blev du usikker?”

32 Da de var kommet op i båden, lagde vinden sig. 33 Alle i båden faldt på knæ for Jesus. „Du er virkelig Guds Søn!” udbrød de.

Helbredelser i Genesaret området(D)

34 De styrede nu båden ind mod land og lagde til ved et sted, som kaldes Genesaret. 35 Jesus blev straks genkendt af de lokale folk, og de sendte bud til hele omegnen om, at Jesus var kommet. Derfor kom man med alle de syge. 36 De bønfaldt ham om bare at få lov at røre ved kvasten på hans bedesjal, og alle, der rørte ved ham, blev helbredt.

  2. 14,13 Teksten er uklar med hensyn til, hvad det var, Jesus fik at vide. Måske Johannes’ død, måske hvad Herodes havde talt med sine tjenere om som beskrevet i vers 1-2. Luk. 13,31 fortæller os, at Herodes var ude på slå Jesus ihjel. Vi ved også fra Luk. 8,3 at Joanna, gift med Herodes’ hofchef, var en discipel af Jesus. Hun ville utvivlsomt have advaret Jesus, hvis hans liv var i fare.

Muerte de Juan el Bautista

14 (A)Por aquel tiempo[a], Herodes el tetrarca(B) oyó la fama de Jesús, y dijo a sus sirvientes: «Este es Juan el Bautista(C). Él ha resucitado de entre los muertos, y por eso es que poderes milagrosos actúan en él».

Porque antes(D)Herodes había prendido a Juan, y lo había atado[b] y puesto en la cárcel(E) por causa de Herodías(F), mujer de su hermano Felipe; porque Juan le decía: «No te es lícito tenerla(G)». Y aunque Herodes quería matarlo, tenía miedo al pueblo[c], porque consideraban[d] a Juan como un profeta(H).

Pero cuando llegó[e] el cumpleaños de Herodes, la hija de Herodías[f](I) danzó ante[g] ellos y agradó a (J)Herodes. Por lo cual le prometió con juramento darle lo que ella pidiera. Ella, instigada por su madre, dijo*: «Dame aquí, en una bandeja la cabeza de Juan el Bautista».

Y aunque el rey se entristeció, a causa de sus[h] juramentos y de sus invitados[i], ordenó que se la dieran; 10 y mandó decapitar a Juan en la cárcel. 11 Trajeron su cabeza en una bandeja y se la dieron a la muchacha[j], y ella se la llevó a su madre. 12 Los discípulos de Juan[k] llegaron y recogieron el cuerpo y lo sepultaron; y fueron y se lo comunicaron a Jesús.

Alimentación de los cinco mil

13 (K)Al oír esto, Jesús se fue de allí en una barca, solo, a un lugar desierto; y cuando las multitudes lo supieron[l], lo siguieron a pie desde las ciudades. 14 Cuando Jesús desembarcó, vio una gran multitud(L), y tuvo compasión de ellos y sanó a sus enfermos(M). 15 Al atardecer se acercaron los discípulos, diciendo: «El lugar está desierto y la hora ya es avanzada; despide, pues, a las multitudes para que vayan a las aldeas y se compren alimentos».

16 Pero Jesús les dijo: «No hay necesidad de que se vayan; denles ustedes de comer». 17 Entonces ellos dijeron*: «No tenemos aquí más que cinco panes y dos peces(N)». 18 «Traigan acá los panes y los peces», les dijo.

19 Y ordenando a la muchedumbre que se sentara sobre la hierba, Jesús tomó los cinco panes y los dos peces, y levantando los ojos al cielo, bendijo los alimentos(O). Después partió los panes y se los dio a los discípulos y los discípulos a la multitud. 20 Todos comieron y se saciaron; y recogieron lo que sobró de los pedazos: doce cestas llenas(P). 21 Y los que comieron fueron unos 5,000 hombres, sin contar las mujeres y los niños.

Jesús anda sobre el mar

22 (Q)Enseguida Jesús hizo que los discípulos[m] subieran a la barca y fueran delante de Él a la otra orilla, mientras Él despedía a la multitud. 23 Después de despedir a la multitud, subió al monte a solas para orar(R); y al anochecer, estaba allí solo. 24 Pero la barca ya estaba muy lejos[n] de tierra, y era azotada[o] por las olas, porque el viento era contrario. 25 A la cuarta vigilia(S) de la noche (3 a 6 a.m.), Jesús vino a ellos andando sobre el mar.

26 Y los discípulos, al ver a Jesús andar sobre el mar, se turbaron, y decían: «¡Es un fantasma(T)!». Y de miedo, se pusieron a gritar. 27 Pero enseguida Jesús les dijo: «Tengan ánimo, soy Yo(U); no teman(V)».

28 Y Pedro le respondió: «Señor, si eres Tú, mándame que vaya a Ti sobre las aguas». 29 «Ven», le dijo Jesús. Y descendiendo Pedro de la barca, caminó sobre las aguas, y fue hacia Jesús. 30 Pero viendo la fuerza del viento tuvo miedo, y empezando a hundirse gritó: «¡Señor, sálvame!». 31 Al instante Jesús, extendiendo la mano, lo sostuvo y le dijo*: «Hombre de poca fe, ¿por qué dudaste(W)?».

32 Cuando ellos subieron a la barca, el viento se calmó. 33 Entonces los que estaban en la barca lo adoraron, diciendo: «En verdad eres Hijo de Dios(X)».

34 (Y)Terminada la travesía, bajaron a[p] tierra en Genesaret(Z). 35 Y cuando los hombres de aquel lugar reconocieron a Jesús, enviaron a decirlo por toda aquella región de alrededor y le trajeron todos los que tenían algún mal. 36 Y le rogaban que les dejara tocar siquiera el borde de Su manto(AA); y todos los que lo tocaban quedaban curados(AB).

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.

施洗约翰被杀(A)

14 那时,分封王希律听见耶稣的名声, 就对臣仆说:“这人是施洗的约翰,他从死人中复活,所以他身上有行神迹的能力。” 原来希律为了他弟弟腓力的妻子希罗底的缘故,拘捕了约翰,把他捆绑,关在监里, 因为约翰多次告诉他:“你占有她是不合理的。” 他想杀约翰,但又害怕群众,因为他们都认为约翰是个先知。 到了希律生日的那天,希罗底的女儿在众人面前跳舞,希律非常高兴, 就起誓答应她,无论求甚么都给她。 她在母亲的怂恿之下,说:“请把施洗的约翰的头放在盘子上给我。” 王就忧愁,但因为誓言和在座的宾客,就下令给她。 10 他派人去,在监里斩了约翰的头, 11 把头放在盘子上,拿来给那女孩子,她又带给母亲。 12 约翰的门徒前来,领了尸体,把它埋葬,然后去告诉耶稣。

给五千人吃饱的神迹(B)

13 耶稣听见了,就离开那里,独自坐船到旷野去。群众听见了,就从各城步行来跟随他。 14 耶稣上了岸,看见一大群人,就怜悯他们,医好了他们的病人。 15 黄昏的时候,门徒前来对他说:“这是旷野的地方,时间也不早了,请叫群众散开,好让他们往村里去,买自己的食物吧。” 16 耶稣回答:“他们用不着离开,你们给他们吃吧!” 17 但门徒说:“我们这里除了五个饼和两条鱼,甚么也没有。” 18 他说:“拿过来给我。” 19 于是吩咐群众坐在草地上,拿起那五个饼两条鱼,望着天,祝谢了;然后把饼擘开,递给门徒,门徒又分给群众。 20 大家都吃了,并且吃饱了,他们把剩下的零碎拾起来,装满了十二个篮子。 21 吃的人,除了妇女和孩子,约有五千。

耶稣在海面上行走(C)

22 耶稣立刻催门徒上船,叫他们先到对岸去,他却留下来叫群众散开。 23 他解散了群众,就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上,他还是独自一人在那里。 24 那时门徒的船已经离岸数公里,因为逆风,被波浪冲击。 25 天快亮的时候(“天快亮的时候”原文作“夜里四更天”),耶稣在海面上向他们走过去。 26 门徒见他在海面上行走,就很惊慌,说:“有鬼啊!”并且恐惧得大叫起来。 27 耶稣立刻对他们说:“放心吧!是我,不要怕。” 28 彼得对他说:“主啊,如果是你,让我在水面上到你那里去。” 29 他说:“来吧!”彼得就从船上下来,行在水面上,走向耶稣那里去。 30 但他一见风浪就害怕,快要沉下去的时候,就呼叫:“主啊!救我!” 31 耶稣马上伸手拉住他,对他说:“小信的人哪,为甚么疑惑?” 32 他们上了船,风就平静了。 33 船上的人都拜他,说:“你真是 神的儿子。”

治好革尼撒勒的病人(D)

34 他们过到对岸,来到革尼撒勒的地区。 35 那地的人认出是耶稣,就把消息传遍了那一带。众人把一切有病的人都带来, 36 求耶稣让他们只摸一摸他衣服的繸子,摸着的人就都痊愈了。

14 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.

For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.

Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.

And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.

And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.

10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

11 And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.

12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

13 When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.

14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

18 He said, Bring them hither to me.

19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.

25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.

29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

32 And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

33 Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

34 And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

35 And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;

36 And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
