13 Now de when Jesus Iēsous heard akouō about · ho John, he left anachōreō there ekeithen by en boat ploion to eis a deserted erēmos place topos to be alone kata idios; but kai when the ho crowds ochlos heard akouō about it, they followed akoloutheō him autos on foot pezē from apo the ho towns polis. 14 And kai when he came exerchomai ashore , he saw a great polys crowd ochlos; and kai he had compassion splanchnizomai on epi them autos and kai healed therapeuō · ho their autos sick arrōstos.

15 When evening opsia · de came ginomai, the ho disciples mathētēs approached proserchomai him autos, saying legō, “ This is eimi a deserted erēmos place topos · ho and kai the ho hour hōra is now ēdē late parerchomai; send apolyō the ho crowds ochlos away so hina they can go aperchomai into eis the ho villages kōmē and buy agorazō food brōma for themselves heautou.” 16 · ho But de Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, “ They have echō no ou need chreia to go aperchomai away ; you hymeis give didōmi them autos something to eat esthiō.” 17 And de they ho said legō to him autos, “ We have echō nothing ou here hōde but ei mē five pente loaves artos and kai two dyo fish ichthus.” 18 And de he ho said legō, “ Bring pherō them autos here hōde to me egō.” 19 Then kai he ordered keleuō the ho crowds ochlos to sit anaklinō down on epi the ho grass chortos, and taking lambanō the ho five pente loaves artos and kai the ho two dyo fish ichthus, he looked anablepō up to eis · ho heaven ouranos, said eulogeō a blessing , and kai broke klaō the loaves.

22 · kai Immediately eutheōs Jesus made anankazō his ho disciples mathētēs get embainō into eis the ho boat ploion and kai go proagō on ahead of him autos to eis the ho opposite peran shore , until heōs hos he had dismissed apolyō the ho crowds ochlos. 23 And kai after sending apolyō the ho crowds ochlos away , he went anabainō up on eis the ho mountainside oros by kata himself idios to pray proseuchomai; and de when evening opsia came ginomai, he was eimi there ekei alone monos. 24 Meanwhile de the ho boat ploion, already ēdē far stadion polys from apo · ho land , was being apechō tossed basanizō by hypo the ho waves kyma, for gar the ho wind anemos was eimi against enantios it. 25 And de in the fourth tetartos watch phylakē of the ho night nyx he came erchomai to pros them autos, walking peripateō on epi the ho sea thalassa. 26 When the ho · de disciples mathētēs saw him autos walking peripateō on epi the ho sea thalassa, they were frightened tarassō and said legō, “ It is eimi a ghost phantasma!” And kai they cried out krazō in apo · ho fear phobos. 27 But de right away Jesus Iēsous spoke laleō · ho to them autos, saying legō, “ Take tharseō courage , it is eimi I egō!

34 And kai when they had crossed diaperaō over , they came erchomai to epi · ho land at eis Gennesaret Gennēsaret. 35 · kai When the ho men anēr of ho that ekeinos place topos recognized epiginōskō him autos, they sent apostellō word into eis all holos · ho that ekeinos surrounding perichōros area and kai brought prospherō to him autos all pas who ho were echō sick kakōs. 36 And kai they begged parakaleō him autos that hina they might just monon touch haptō the ho fringe kraspedon of ho his autos cloak himation; and kai as hosos many as touched haptō it were healed diasōzō.

14 At that season Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus, and said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore do these powers work in him. For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, 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 came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod. Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she should ask. And she, being put forward by her mother, saith, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist. And the king was grieved; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat with him, he commanded it to be given; 10 and he sent and beheaded John in the prison. 11 And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother. 12 And his disciples came, and took up the corpse, and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.

13 Now when Jesus heard it, he withdrew from thence in a boat, to a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard thereof, they followed him [a]on foot from the cities. 14 And he came forth, and saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick. 15 And when even was come, the disciples came to him, saying, The place is desert, and the time is already past; send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food. 16 But Jesus said unto them, They have no need to go away; give ye them to eat. 17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. 18 And he said, Bring them hither to me. 19 And he commanded the multitudes to [b]sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. 20 And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 21 And they that did eat were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

22 And straightway he constrained the disciples to enter into the boat, and to go before him unto the other side, till he should send the multitudes away. 23 And after he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain apart to pray: and when even was come, he was there alone. 24 But the boat [c]was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves; for the wind was contrary. 25 And in the fourth watch of the night he came unto them, walking upon the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost; 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 upon the waters. 29 And he said, Come. And Peter went down from the boat, and walked upon the waters [d]to come to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the [e]wind, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me. 31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and took hold of him, and saith unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? 32 And when they were gone up into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 And they that were in the boat [f]worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

34 And when they had crossed over, they came to the land, unto Gennesaret. 35 And when the men of that place knew him, they sent into all that region round about, and brought unto him all that were sick; 36 and they besought him that they might only touch the border of his garment: and as many as touched were made whole.
