1 At|strong="G1722" that|strong="G3588" time|strong="G2540" Herod|strong="G2264" the|strong="G1722" tetrarch|strong="G5076" heard the|strong="G1722" report about|strong="G1722" Jesus|strong="G2424"
2 and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G2532" his|strong="G1223" servants|strong="G3816", “This|strong="G3778" man|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" John|strong="G2491" the|strong="G1722" Baptist; he|strong="G2532" has|strong="G3778" been|strong="G1510" raised|strong="G1453" from|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" dead|strong="G3498", and|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" why|strong="G1223" these|strong="G3778" mighty|strong="G1411" powers|strong="G1411" are|strong="G1510" at|strong="G1722" work|strong="G1754" in|strong="G1722" him|strong="G3588".”
3 For|strong="G1063" Herod|strong="G2264" had|strong="G2532" arrested|strong="G2902" John|strong="G2491", bound|strong="G1210" him|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" put|strong="G2532" him|strong="G3588" in|strong="G1722" prison|strong="G5438" on|strong="G1722" account|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" Herodias|strong="G2266", his|strong="G1223" brother Philip|strong="G5376"'s wife|strong="G1135".
4 For|strong="G1063" John|strong="G2491" had|strong="G2192" been|strong="G2192" saying|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" him|strong="G3588", “It|strong="G1063" is|strong="G3588" not|strong="G3756" lawful|strong="G1832" for|strong="G1063" yoʋ to|strong="G3004" have|strong="G2192" her|strong="G1438".”
5 Although|strong="G3748" Herod wanted|strong="G2309" to|strong="G2532" kill John|strong="G2532", he|strong="G2532" was|strong="G3588" afraid|strong="G5399" of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" crowd|strong="G3793", because|strong="G3754" they|strong="G2532" regarded|strong="G2192" John|strong="G2532" as|strong="G5613" a|strong="G2192" prophet|strong="G4396".
6 But|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" Herod|strong="G2264"'s birthday|strong="G1077" was|strong="G1096" celebrated, the|strong="G1722" daughter|strong="G2364" of|strong="G2532" Herodias|strong="G2266" danced|strong="G3738" before|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" guests and|strong="G2532" pleased Herod|strong="G2264".
7 So|strong="G3606" he|strong="G3739" promised|strong="G3670" with|strong="G3326" an|strong="G1325" oath|strong="G3727" to|strong="G1325" give|strong="G1325" her|strong="G1437" whatever|strong="G3739" she|strong="G1437" might ask.
8 Prompted|strong="G4264" by|strong="G5259" her|strong="G1325" mother|strong="G3384", she|strong="G1161" said|strong="G5346", “Give|strong="G1325" me|strong="G1325" here|strong="G5602" on|strong="G1909" a|strong="G1909" platter|strong="G4094" the|strong="G1161" head|strong="G2776" of|strong="G5259" John|strong="G2491" the|strong="G1161" Baptist.”
9 The|strong="G2532" king|strong="G3588" was|strong="G3588" grieved|strong="G3076", but|strong="G2532" because|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" his|strong="G1223" oaths|strong="G3727" and|strong="G2532" his|strong="G1223" guests|strong="G4873", he|strong="G2532" commanded|strong="G2753" it|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2532" be|strong="G2532" given|strong="G1325"
10 and|strong="G2532" sent|strong="G3992" orders to|strong="G2532" have|strong="G2532" John|strong="G2491" beheaded in|strong="G1722" prison|strong="G5438".
11 John|strong="G2532"'s head|strong="G2776" was|strong="G3588" then|strong="G2532" brought|strong="G5342" on|strong="G1909" a|strong="G2532" platter|strong="G4094" and|strong="G2532" given|strong="G1325" to|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" girl|strong="G2877", and|strong="G2532" she|strong="G2532" brought|strong="G5342" it|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2532" her|strong="G1325" mother|strong="G3384".
12 Later, John|strong="G2532"'s disciples|strong="G3101" came|strong="G2064" and|strong="G2532" took|strong="G2532" his|strong="G2532" body|strong="G4430" and|strong="G2532" buried|strong="G2290" it|strong="G2532". Then|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" went|strong="G2064" and|strong="G2532" brought|strong="G2064" word|strong="G3588" to|strong="G2532" Jesus|strong="G2424".
13 When|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" heard this|strong="G3588", he|strong="G2532" withdrew|strong="G2424" from|strong="G2532" there|strong="G2532" in|strong="G1722" a|strong="G2532" boat|strong="G4143" to|strong="G1519" a|strong="G2532" desolate|strong="G2048" place|strong="G5117" by|strong="G1722" himself|strong="G2398". But|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1722" crowds|strong="G3793" heard about|strong="G2596" it|strong="G2532" and|strong="G2532" followed him|strong="G3588" on|strong="G1722" foot|strong="G3979" from|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" towns|strong="G4172".
14 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" Jesus|strong="G1831" went|strong="G1831" ashore|strong="G1831" and|strong="G2532" saw|strong="G3708" a|strong="G2532" large|strong="G4183" crowd|strong="G3793", he|strong="G2532" was|strong="G3588" moved|strong="G4697" with|strong="G2532" compassion|strong="G4697" for|strong="G1909" them|strong="G3588" and|strong="G2532" healed|strong="G2323" their|strong="G2532" sick.
15 As|strong="G1519" evening|strong="G3798" approached|strong="G4334", his|strong="G1438" disciples|strong="G3101" came|strong="G4334" to|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004", “This|strong="G3588" place|strong="G5117" is|strong="G1510" desolate|strong="G2048", and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" hour|strong="G5610" is|strong="G1510" now|strong="G1161" late|strong="G3928". Send the|strong="G2532" crowds|strong="G3793" away|strong="G3928" so|strong="G2443" that|strong="G2443" they|strong="G2532" can|strong="G3004" go|strong="G3928" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" villages|strong="G2968" and|strong="G2532" buy themselves|strong="G1438" some|strong="G3588" food|strong="G1033".”
16 But|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3588", “\+w They|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w have|strong="G2192"\+w* \+w no|strong="G3756"\+w* \+w need|strong="G5532"\+w* \+w to|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w go|strong="G2192"\+w* away; \+w you|strong="G5210"\+w* \+w give|strong="G1325"\+w* \+w them|strong="G3588"\+w* something \+w to|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w eat|strong="G2068"\+w*.”
17 They|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G2532" him|strong="G3588", “We|strong="G2532" have|strong="G2192" here|strong="G5602" only|strong="G1487" five|strong="G4002" loaves and|strong="G2532" two|strong="G1417" fish|strong="G2486".”
18 He|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004", “\+w Bring|strong="G5342"\+w* \+w them|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w here|strong="G5602"\+w* \+w to|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1473"\+w*.”
19 Then|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" commanded|strong="G2753" the|strong="G2532" crowds|strong="G3793" to|strong="G1519" sit down on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G2532" grass|strong="G5528", and|strong="G2532" taking|strong="G2983" the|strong="G2532" five|strong="G4002" loaves and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" two|strong="G1417" fish|strong="G2486", he|strong="G2532" looked|strong="G2532" up|strong="G1519" to|strong="G1519" heaven|strong="G3772" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G1161" the|strong="G2532" blessing|strong="G2127". Then|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" broke|strong="G2806" the|strong="G2532" loaves and|strong="G2532" gave|strong="G1325" them|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G3101", and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G3101" gave|strong="G1325" them|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" crowds|strong="G3793".
20 They|strong="G2532" all|strong="G3956" ate|strong="G2068" and|strong="G2532" were|strong="G3588" filled|strong="G5526", and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G3588" picked up|strong="G2532" what|strong="G3588" was|strong="G3588" left|strong="G4052" over|strong="G4052" of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" broken|strong="G2801" pieces|strong="G2801", twelve|strong="G1427" baskets|strong="G2894" full|strong="G4134".
21 Now|strong="G1161" those|strong="G3588" who|strong="G3588" had|strong="G2532" eaten|strong="G2068" were|strong="G1510" about|strong="G5616" five|strong="G4000" thousand|strong="G4000" men|strong="G3588", besides|strong="G5565" women|strong="G1135" and|strong="G2532" children|strong="G3813".
22 Immediately|strong="G2112" Jesus|strong="G2532" compelled the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G3101" to|strong="G1519" get|strong="G1684" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" boat|strong="G4143" and|strong="G2532" go|strong="G4254" ahead|strong="G4254" of|strong="G2532" him|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" other|strong="G4008" side|strong="G4008" of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" sea|strong="G2532", while|strong="G2193" he|strong="G2532" sent|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" crowds|strong="G3793" away.
23 After|strong="G2596" sending the|strong="G2532" crowds|strong="G3793" away, he|strong="G2532" went|strong="G2532" up|strong="G1519" on|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" mountain|strong="G3735" by|strong="G2596" himself|strong="G2398" to|strong="G1519" pray|strong="G4336". When|strong="G1161" evening|strong="G3798" came|strong="G1096", he|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1510" there|strong="G1563" alone|strong="G3441".
24 Meanwhile|strong="G1161", the|strong="G1161" boat|strong="G4143" was|strong="G1510" already|strong="G2235" in|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1161" middle|strong="G3319" of|strong="G5259" the|strong="G1161" sea|strong="G2281", being|strong="G1510" tossed by|strong="G5259" the|strong="G1161" waves|strong="G2949", for|strong="G1063" the|strong="G1161" wind was|strong="G1510" against|strong="G1727" them|strong="G3588".
25 And|strong="G1161" in|strong="G1909" the|strong="G1161" fourth|strong="G5067" watch|strong="G5438" of|strong="G1909" the|strong="G1161" night|strong="G3571" Jesus|strong="G2064" went|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" them|strong="G3588", walking|strong="G4043" on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G1161" sea|strong="G2281".
26 When|strong="G1161" the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G3101" saw|strong="G3708" him|strong="G3588" walking|strong="G4043" on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G2532" sea|strong="G2281", they|strong="G2532" were|strong="G1510" terrified|strong="G5015" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004", “It|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" a|strong="G2532" ghost|strong="G5326"!” And|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" cried|strong="G2896" out|strong="G2896" in|strong="G1909" fear|strong="G5401".
27 But|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" immediately|strong="G2112" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3004", “\+w Take|strong="G2293"\+w* \+w courage|strong="G2293"\+w*! \+w It|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w*; \+w do|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w not|strong="G3361"\+w* \+w be|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w afraid|strong="G5399"\+w*.”
28 In|strong="G1909" response Peter|strong="G4074" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588", “Lord|strong="G2962", if|strong="G1487" it|strong="G1161" is|strong="G1510" yoʋ, command|strong="G3004" me|strong="G1473" to|strong="G4314" come|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" yoʋ on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G1161" water|strong="G5204".”
29 So|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004", “\+w Come|strong="G2064"\+w*.” Then|strong="G2532" Peter|strong="G4074" got|strong="G2597" down|strong="G2597" from|strong="G2064" the|strong="G2532" boat|strong="G4143" and|strong="G2532" walked|strong="G4043" on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G2532" water|strong="G5204" to|strong="G4314" go|strong="G2597" to|strong="G4314" Jesus|strong="G2424".
30 But|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" he|strong="G2532" saw the|strong="G2532" strong|strong="G2478" wind, he|strong="G2532" became|strong="G3588" frightened|strong="G5399", and|strong="G2532" beginning to|strong="G2532" sink|strong="G2670", he|strong="G2532" cried|strong="G2896" out|strong="G2896", “Lord|strong="G2962", save|strong="G4982" me|strong="G1473"!”
31 Immediately|strong="G2112" Jesus|strong="G2424" reached|strong="G1519" out|strong="G2532" his|strong="G1519" hand|strong="G5495", took|strong="G1949" hold|strong="G1949" of|strong="G2532" him|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588", “O yoʋ \+w of|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w little|strong="G3640"\+w* \+w faith|strong="G3640"\+w*, \+w why|strong="G5101"\+w* \+w did|strong="G2532"\+w* yoʋ \+w doubt|strong="G1365"\+w*?”
32 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2532" gotten into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" boat|strong="G4143", the|strong="G2532" wind ceased|strong="G2869".
33 Then|strong="G1161" those|strong="G3588" who|strong="G3588" were|strong="G1510" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" boat|strong="G4143" came|strong="G3588" and|strong="G1161" worshiped|strong="G4352" him|strong="G3588", saying|strong="G3004", “Truly|strong="G1722" yoʋ are|strong="G1510" the|strong="G1722" Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" God|strong="G2316".”
34 When|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2532" crossed|strong="G1276" the|strong="G2532" sea|strong="G2532", they|strong="G2532" came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" land|strong="G1093" of|strong="G2532" Gennesaret|strong="G1082".
35 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" men|strong="G3956" of|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" place|strong="G5117" recognized|strong="G1921" Jesus|strong="G1565", they|strong="G2532" sent|strong="G2532" word|strong="G3588" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" entire|strong="G3650" surrounding|strong="G4066" region|strong="G4066", and|strong="G2532" people|strong="G3956" brought|strong="G4374" to|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588" all|strong="G3956" who|strong="G3588" were|strong="G3588" sick|strong="G2560".
36 They|strong="G2532" begged|strong="G3870" him|strong="G3588" to|strong="G2443" let|strong="G2443" the|strong="G2532" sick touch even|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" fringe|strong="G2899" of|strong="G2532" his|strong="G2532" garment|strong="G2440", and|strong="G2532" all|strong="G3745" who|strong="G3588" touched it|strong="G2532" were|strong="G3588" completely healed.
