14 På den Tid hørte Fjerdingsfyrsten Herodes Rygtet om Jesus. Og han sagde til sine Tjenere: "Det er Johannes Døberen; han er oprejst fra de døde, derfor virke Kræfterne i ham." Thi Herodes havde grebet Johannes og bundet ham og sat ham i Fængsel for sin Broder Filips Hustru, Herodias's Skyld. Johannes sagde nemlig til ham: "Det er dig ikke tilladt at have hende." Og han vilde gerne slå ham ihjel, men frygtede for Mængden, thi de holdt ham for en Profet. Men da Herodes's Fødselsdag kom, dansede Herodias's Datter for dem; og hun behagede Herodes. Derfor lovede han med en Ed at give hende, hvad som helst hun begærede. Og tilskyndet af sin Moder siger hun: "Giv mig Johannes Døberens Hoved hid på et Fad!" Og Kongen blev bedrøvet; men for sine Eders og for Gæsternes Skyld befalede han, at det skulde gives hende. 10 Og han sendte Bud og lod Johannes halshugge i Fængselet. 11 Og hans Hoved blev bragt på et Fad og givet Pigen, og hun bragte det til sin Moder. 12 Da kom hans Disciple og toge Liget og begravede ham, og de kom og forkyndte Jesus det.

13 Og da Jesus hørte det, drog han bort derfra i et Skib til et øde Sted afsides; og da Skarerne hørte det, fulgte de ham til Fods fra Byerne. 14 Og da han kom i Land, så han en stor Skare, og han ynkedes inderligt over dem og helbredte deres syge. 15 Men da det blev Aften, kom Disciplene til ham og sagde: "Stedet er øde, og Tiden er allerede forløben; lad Skarerne gå bort, for at de kunne gå hen i Landsbyerne og købe sig Mad." 16 Men Jesus sagde til dem: "De have ikke nødig at gå bort; giver I dem at spise!" 17 Men de sige til ham: "Vi have ikke her uden fem Brød og to Fisk." 18 Men han sagde: "Henter mig dem hid!" 19 Og han bød Skarerne at sætte sig ned i Græsset og tog de fem Brød og de to Fisk, så op til Himmelen og velsignede; og han brød Brødene og gav Disciplene dem, og Disciplene gave dem til Skarerne. 20 Og de spiste alle og bleve mætte; og de opsamlede det, som blev tilovers af Stykkerne, tolv Kurve fulde 21 Men de, som spiste, vare omtrent fem Tusinde Mænd, foruden Kvinder og Børn.

22 Og straks nødte han sine Disciple til at gå om Bord i Skibet og i Forvejen sætte over til hin Side, medens han lod Skarerne gå bort. 23 Og da han havde ladet Skarerne gå bort, gik han op på Bjerget afsides for at bede. Og da det blev silde, var han der alene. 24 Men Skibet var allerede midt på Søen og led Nød af Bølgerne; thi Vinden var imod. 25 Men i den fjerde Nattevagt kom han til dem, vandrende på Søen. 26 Og da Disciplene så ham vandre på Søen, bleve de forfærdede og sagde: "Det er et Spøgelse;" og de skrege af Frygt. 27 Men straks talte Jesus til dem og sagde: "Værer frimodige; det er mig, frygter ikke!" 28 Men Peter svarede ham og sagde: "Herre! dersom det er dig, da byd mig at komme til dig på Vandet!" 29 Men han sagde: "Kom!" Og Peter trådte ned fra Skibet og vandrede på Vandet for at komme til Jesus. 30 Men da han så det stærke Vejr, blev han bange; og da han begyndte at synke, råbte han og sagde: "Herre, frels mig!" 31 Og straks udrakte Jesus Hånden og greb ham, og han siger til ham: "Du lidettroende, hvorfor tvivlede du?" 32 Og da de stege op i Skibet, lagde Vinden sig. 33 Men de, som vare i Skibet, faldt ned for ham og sagde: "Du er sandelig Guds Søn." 34 Og da de vare farne over, landede de i Genezareth.

35 Og da Folkene på det Sted kendte ham, sendte de Bud til hele Egnen der omkring og bragte alle de syge til ham. 36 Og de bade ham, at de blot måtte røre ved Fligen af hans Klædebon; og alle de, som rørte derved, bleve helbredede.

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 (D)Herodes había prendido a Juan, 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(I) danzó ante[f] 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 [g] juramentos y de sus invitados[h], ordenó que se la dieran; 10 y mandó decapitar a Juan en la cárcel. 11 Y trajeron su cabeza en una bandeja y se la dieron a la muchacha, y ella se la llevó a su madre. 12 Los discípulos de Juan[i] 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 retiró de allí en una barca, solo, a un lugar desierto; y cuando las multitudes lo supieron[j], le siguieron a pie desde las ciudades. 14 Y al desembarcar[k], vio una gran multitud(L), y tuvo compasión de ellos y sanó a sus enfermos(M). 15 Al atardecer se le acercaron los discípulos, diciendo: El lugar está desierto y la hora es ya 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; dadles vosotros de comer. 17 Entonces ellos le dijeron*: No tenemos aquí más que cinco panes y dos peces(N). 18 Él les dijo: Traédmelos acá. 19 Y ordenando a la muchedumbre que se recostara sobre la hierba, tomó los cinco panes y los dos peces, y levantando los ojos al cielo, bendijo los alimentos(O), y partiendo los panes, se los dio a los discípulos y los discípulos a la multitud. 20 Y comieron todos y se saciaron. Y recogieron lo que sobró de los pedazos: doce cestas llenas(P). 21 Y los que comieron fueron unos cinco mil hombres, sin contar las mujeres y los niños.

Jesús anda sobre el mar

22 (Q)Enseguida hizo que los discípulos[l] 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 estaba ya a muchos estadios[m] de tierra, y era azotada[n] por las olas, porque el viento era contrario. 25 Y a la cuarta vigilia(S) de la noche[o], Jesús vino a ellos andando sobre el mar. 26 Y los discípulos, viéndole andar sobre el mar, se turbaron, y decían: ¡Es un fantasma(T)! Y de miedo, se pusieron a gritar. 27 Pero enseguida Jesús les habló, diciendo: Tened ánimo, soy yo(U); no temáis(V). 28 Respondiéndole Pedro, dijo: Señor, si eres tú, mándame que vaya a ti sobre las aguas. 29 Y Él dijo: Ven. 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, diciendo: ¡Señor, sálvame! 31 Y 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 le 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[q], enviaron a decirlo por toda aquella comarca 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 (B)Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.” (C)For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife. Because John had said to him, (D)“It is not lawful for you to have her.” And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, (E)because they counted him as a prophet.

But when Herod’s birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod. Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.

So she, having been prompted by her mother, said, “Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter.”

And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he commanded it to be given to her. 10 So he sent and had John beheaded in prison. 11 And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother. 12 Then his disciples came and took away the body and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

Feeding the Five Thousand(F)

13 (G)When Jesus heard it, He departed from there by boat to a deserted place by Himself. But when the multitudes heard it, they followed Him on foot from the cities. 14 And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He (H)was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick. 15 (I)When it was evening, His disciples came to Him, saying, “This is a deserted place, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.”

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

17 And they said to Him, “We have here only five loaves and two fish.”

18 He said, “Bring them here to Me.” 19 Then He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, (J)He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes. 20 So they all ate and were filled, and they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments that remained. 21 Now those who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

Jesus Walks on the Sea(K)

22 Immediately Jesus [a]made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away. 23 (L)And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. (M)Now when evening came, He was alone there. 24 But the boat was now [b]in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

25 Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw Him (N)walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.

27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, [c]“Be of good (O)cheer! [d]It is I; do not be afraid.”

28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”

29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw [e]that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”

31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of (P)little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.

33 Then those who were in the boat [f]came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly (Q)You are the Son of God.”

Many Touch Him and Are Made Well(R)

34 (S)When they had crossed over, they came [g]to the land of Gennesaret. 35 And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick, 36 and begged Him that they might only (T)touch the hem of His garment. And (U)as many as touched it were made perfectly well.

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.
