|
1. At that time Herod the tetrarch heard about the fame of Jesus,
|
|||
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
2. and he said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist. He has been raised from the dead; that is why these miraculous powers are at work in him.”
|
|||
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
3. For Herod had seized John and bound him and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,
|
|||
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
4. because John had been saying to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
|
|||
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
5. And though he wanted to put him to death, he feared the people, because they held him to be a prophet.
|
|||
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
6. But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before the company and pleased Herod,
|
|||
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
7. so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.
|
|||
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
8. Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter.”
|
|||
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
9. And the king was sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he commanded it to be given.
|
|||
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
10. He sent and had John beheaded in the prison,
|
|||
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
11. and his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
|
|||
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
12. And his disciples came and took the body and buried it, and they went and told Jesus.
|
|||
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
13. Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a desolate place by himself. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns.
|
|||
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
14. When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
|
|||
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
15. Now when it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves.”
|
|||
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
16. But Jesus said, “They need not go away; you give them something to eat.”
|
|||
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
17. They said to him, “We have only five loaves here and two fish.”
|
|||
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
18. And he said, “Bring them here to me.”
|
|||
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
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 said a blessing. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.
|
|||
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
20. And they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces left over.
|
|||
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
21. And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
|
|||
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
22. Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds.
|
|||
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||
|
23. And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone,
|
|||
|
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
|
|||
|
24. but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them.
|
|||
|
<a id="25" name="25"></a>
|
|||
|
25. And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.
|
|||
|
<a id="26" name="26"></a>
|
|||
|
26. But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear.
|
|||
|
<a id="27" name="27"></a>
|
|||
|
27. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.”
|
|||
|
<a id="28" name="28"></a>
|
|||
|
28. And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.”
|
|||
|
<a id="29" name="29"></a>
|
|||
|
29. He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.
|
|||
|
<a id="30" name="30"></a>
|
|||
|
30. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.”
|
|||
|
<a id="31" name="31"></a>
|
|||
|
31. Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
|
|||
|
<a id="32" name="32"></a>
|
|||
|
32. And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
|
|||
|
<a id="33" name="33"></a>
|
|||
|
33. And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”
|
|||
|
<a id="34" name="34"></a>
|
|||
|
34. And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.
|
|||
|
<a id="35" name="35"></a>
|
|||
|
35. And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent around to all that region and brought to him all who were sick
|
|||
|
<a id="36" name="36"></a>
|
|||
|
36. and implored him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment. And as many as touched it were made well.
