John the Baptist Beheaded
14 At that time(A) Herod the tetrarch(B) heard the report about Jesus. 2 “This is John the Baptist,” he told his servants. “He has been raised from the dead, and that’s why miraculous powers are at work in him.”(C)
3 For Herod had arrested John, chained[a] him, and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,(D) 4 since John had been telling him, “It’s not lawful(E) for you to have her.” 5 Though Herod wanted to kill John, he feared the crowd since they regarded John as a prophet.(F)
6 When Herod’s birthday celebration came, Herodias’s daughter danced before them[b] and pleased Herod. 7 So he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. 8 Prompted by her mother, she answered, “Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter.” 9 Although the king regretted it, he commanded that it be granted because of his oaths and his guests. 10 So he sent orders and had John beheaded in the prison. 11 His head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother. 12 Then his disciples came, removed the corpse,[c] buried it, and went and reported to Jesus.
Feeding of the Five Thousand
13 When Jesus heard about it,(G) he withdrew from there by boat to a remote place to be alone. When the crowds heard this, they followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When he went ashore,[d] he saw a large crowd, had compassion on them, and healed their sick.(H)
15 When evening came, the disciples(I) approached him and said, “This place is deserted, and it is already late.[e] Send the crowds away so that they can go into the villages and buy food for themselves.”
16 “They don’t need to go away,” Jesus told them. “You give them something to eat.”
17 “But we only have five loaves and two fish here,” they said to him.
18 “Bring them here to me,” he said. 19 Then he commanded the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them. He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.(J) 20 Everyone ate and was satisfied. They picked up twelve baskets full of leftover pieces.(K) 21 Now those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
Walking on the Water
22 Immediately(L) he[f] made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23 After dismissing the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. Well into the night, he was there alone.(M) 24 Meanwhile, the boat was already some distance[g] from land,[h] battered by the waves, because the wind was against them. 25 Jesus came toward them walking on the sea(N) very early in the morning.[i] 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and they cried out in fear.
27 Immediately Jesus spoke to them. “Have courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”(O)
28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter answered him, “command me to come to you on the water.”
29 He said, “Come.”
And climbing out of the boat, Peter started walking on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the strength of the wind,[j] he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me!”
31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand, caught hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”(P)
32 When they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 Then those in the boat worshiped him and said, “Truly you are the Son of God.”(Q)
Miraculous Healings
34 When they had crossed over,(R) they came to shore at Gennesaret.(S) 35 When the men of that place recognized him, they alerted the whole vicinity and brought to him all who were sick. 36 They begged him that they might only touch the end of his robe, and as many as touched it were healed.(T)

14 I taua wa ka rongo a Herora te tetaraki ki te rongo o Ihu,
2 A ka mea ki ana pononga, Ko Hoani Kaiiriiri tenei; kua ara mai ia i te hunga mate; a na reira i mahi ai nga merekara i roto i a ia.
3 I hopukia hoki a Hoani e Herora, a hereherea ana e ia, a maka ana ki te whare herehere, he mea hoki na Heroriaha, na te wahine a tona tuakana, a Piripi.
4 I mea hoki a Hoani ki a ia, E kore e tika kia riro ia i a koe.
5 A, i a ia e mea ana ki te whakamate i a ia, ka wehi i te mano; ki ta ratou hoki he poropiti ia.
6 Otira i te taenga ki te ra whanau o Herora, ka kanikani te tamahine a Heroriaha i waenganui i a ratou, a ka ahuareka a Herora.
7 Katahi ia ka mea ki a ia, oati rawa, kia hoatu ki a ia tana mea e tono ai.
8 Na, he mea whakakiki ia na tona whaea, ka mea, Homai ki konei ki ahau i runga i te rihi te matenga o Hoani Kaiiriiri.
9 Heoi ka pouri te kingi: otiia i whakaaro ia ki te oati, ki te hunga hoki e noho tahi ana me ia, a ka mea kia hoatu.
10 Na ka tono tangata ia, a poutoa ana te matenga o Hoani i roto i te whare herehere.
11 A i mauria tona matenga i runga i te rihi, i hoatu ki te kotiro: kawea atu ana e ia ki tona whaea.
12 Na ka haere ana akonga, ka tango i te tinana, a tanumia ana e ratou, a haere ana, korero ana ki a Ihu.
13 Na, i te rongonga o Ihu, ka haere atu ia i reira ra te kaipuke ki te koraha, ki te wahi motu ke: a, no ka rongo te mano, ka aru i a ia ra uta i roto i nga pa.
14 A ka puta atu a Ihu, ka kite i te huihuinga nui, ka aroha ia ki a ratou, a whakaorangia ana e ia o ratou turoro.
15 A, no ka ahiahi, ka haere atu ana akonga ki a ia, ka mea, He wahi koraha tenei, kua heke noa atu te ra; tonoa atu te mano, kia haere ai ratou ki nga kainga ki te hoko kai ma ratou.
16 Ano ra ko Ihu ki a ratou, Kahore he mea e haere ai ratou; ma koutou e hoatu he kai ma ratou.
17 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Heoi ano a matou i konei, e rima nga taro, e rua hoki nga ika.
18 Na ka mea ia, Mauria mai ki konei ki ahau.
19 Na ka mea ia ki te mano kia noho ki runga i te tarutaru, ka mau i nga taro e rima, i nga ika hoki e rua, ka titiro ki runga ki te rangi, ka whakapai, ka whawhati, a hoatu ana e ia nga taro ki nga akonga, a na nga akonga ki te mano.
20 A kai katoa ana ratou, a ka makona: a kotahi tekau ma rua nga kete i kohia ake e ratou, ki tonu i nga whatiwhatinga i toe.
21 Ko te hunga i kai ra me te mea e rima mano nga tane, haunga nga wahine me nga tamariki.
22 Na akiaki tonu a Ihu i ana akonga kia eke ki te kaipuke, kia whakawhiti i mua i a ia ki tawahi, i a ia e tuku ana i nga mano kia haere.
23 A, ka oti te mano te tuku, ka kake ia ki runga ki te maunga ki te wahi motu ke ki te inoi: na kua ahiahi, a ko ia anake i reira.
24 Na, tera te kaipuke te akina ra e te ngaru i waenga moana: i he hoki te hau.
25 A i te wha o nga mataaratanga o te po ka haere a Ihu ki a ratou, i haere maori i runga i te moana.
26 A, i te kitenga o nga akonga i a ia e haere ana i runga i te moana, ka ihiihi, ka mea, He wairua; ka aue i te wehi.
27 Na kua hohoro te korero a Ihu ki a ratou, te mea, Kia manawanui, ko ahau tenei; aua e wehi.
28 Na ka whakahoki a Pita ki a ia, ka mea, E te Ariki, ki te mea ko koe tena, kiia mai ahau kia haere atu ki a koe i runga i te wai.
29 Na ka mea ia, Haere mai. A ka marere atu a Pita i te kaipuke, ka haere i runga i te wai, kia tae ai ki a Ihu.
30 Otira ka kite ia i te hau e kaha ana, ka wehi; a ka timata te totohu, ka karanga ake, ka mea, Ahau, e te Ariki, whakaorangia.
31 Hohoro tonu te totoro o te ringa o Ihu, ka hopu i a ia, ka mea ki a ia, E te tangata whakapono iti, he aha koe i ngakau rua ai?
32 Ano ka eke raua ki te kaipuke, mutu pu te hau.
33 Na ka haere mai te hunga i runga i te kaipuke, ka koropiko ki a ia, ka mea, He pono ko te Tama koe a te Atua.
34 A, i to ratou whitinga atu, ka tae ki te whenua o Kenehareta.
35 A, ka mohio nga tangata o taua wahi ki a ia, ka tono tangata puta noa i nga wahi tutata katoa o reira, hei kawe mai i nga turoro katoa ki a ia;
36 Ka inoi ki a ia kia pa kau ratou ki te taniko o tona kakahu; a ora ake nga tangata katoa i pa.

14 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
2 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.
3 For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
4 For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.
8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.
9 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.

14 At that time (B)Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus 2 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.” 3 (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. 4 Because John had said to him, (D)“It is not lawful for you to have her.” 5 And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, (E)because they counted him as a prophet.
6 But when Herod’s birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod. 7 Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.
8 So she, having been prompted by her mother, said, “Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter.”
9 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.

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.

Decapitación de Juan el Bautista(A)
14 En aquel tiempo Herodes, el tetrarca, se enteró de lo que decían de Jesús, 2 y comentó a sus sirvientes: «¡Ese es Juan el Bautista; ha resucitado! Por eso tiene poder para realizar milagros».
3 En efecto, Herodes había arrestado a Juan. Lo había encadenado y metido en la cárcel por causa de Herodías, esposa de su hermano Felipe. 4 Es que Juan había estado diciéndole: «No te es lícito tenerla por mujer». 5 Herodes quería matarlo, pero tenía miedo a la gente, porque consideraban a Juan como un profeta.
6 En el cumpleaños de Herodes, la hija de Herodías bailó delante de todos; y tanto agradó esto a Herodes 7 que prometió bajo juramento darle cualquier cosa que pidiera. 8 Instigada por su madre, le pidió: «Dame en una bandeja la cabeza de Juan el Bautista».
9 El rey se entristeció; sin embargo, a causa de sus juramentos y en atención a los invitados, ordenó que le dieran lo que pedía 10 y ordenó decapitar a Juan en la cárcel. 11 Llevaron la cabeza en una bandeja y se la dieron a la muchacha, quien se la entregó a su madre. 12 Luego llegaron los discípulos de Juan, recogieron el cuerpo y le dieron sepultura. Después fueron y avisaron a Jesús.
Jesús alimenta a los cinco mil(B)
13 Cuando Jesús recibió la noticia, se retiró él solo en una barca a un lugar solitario. Las multitudes se enteraron y lo siguieron a pie desde los poblados. 14 Cuando Jesús desembarcó y vio tanta gente, tuvo compasión de ellos y sanó a los que estaban enfermos.
15 Al atardecer se le acercaron sus discípulos y dijeron:
—Este es un lugar apartado y ya se hace tarde. Despide a la gente, para que vayan a los pueblos y se compren algo de comer.
16 —No tienen que irse —contestó Jesús—. Denles ustedes mismos de comer.
17 Ellos objetaron:
—No tenemos aquí más que cinco panes y dos pescados.
18 —Tráiganmelos acá —dijo Jesús.
19 Y mandó a la gente que se sentara sobre la hierba. Tomó los cinco panes y los dos pescados y, mirando al cielo, los bendijo. Luego partió los panes y se los dio a los discípulos, quienes los repartieron a la gente. 20 Todos comieron hasta quedar satisfechos y los discípulos recogieron doce canastas llenas de pedazos que sobraron. 21 Los que comieron fueron unos cinco mil hombres, sin contar a las mujeres y a los niños.
Jesús camina sobre el agua(C)(D)
22 Enseguida Jesús hizo que los discípulos subieran a la barca y se adelantaran al otro lado, mientras él despedía a la multitud. 23 Después de despedir a la gente, subió a la montaña para orar a solas. Al anochecer, estaba allí él solo 24 y la barca ya estaba bastante lejos[a] de la tierra, zarandeada por las olas, porque el viento le era contrario.
25 En la madrugada,[b] Jesús se acercó a ellos caminando sobre el lago. 26 Cuando los discípulos lo vieron caminando sobre el agua, quedaron aterrados.
—¡Es un fantasma! —dijeron.
Y llenos de miedo comenzaron a gritar. 27 Pero Jesús dijo enseguida:
—¡Cálmense! Soy yo. No tengan miedo.
28 —Señor, si eres tú —respondió Pedro—, mándame que vaya a ti sobre el agua.
29 —Ven —dijo Jesús.
Pedro bajó de la barca y caminó sobre el agua en dirección a Jesús. 30 Pero al sentir el viento fuerte, tuvo miedo y comenzó a hundirse. Entonces gritó:
—¡Señor, sálvame!
31 Enseguida Jesús le tendió la mano y, sujetándolo, lo reprendió:
—¡Hombre de poca fe! ¿Por qué dudaste?
32 Cuando subieron a la barca, el viento se calmó. 33 Los que estaban en la barca lo adoraron diciendo:
—Verdaderamente tú eres el Hijo de Dios.
34 Después de cruzar el lago, desembarcaron en Genesaret. 35 Los habitantes de aquel lugar reconocieron a Jesús y divulgaron la noticia por todos los alrededores. Le llevaban todos los enfermos, 36 le suplicaban que les permitiera tocar siquiera el borde de su manto y quienes lo tocaban quedaban sanos.
