14:1 |
t that time Herod the Tetrarch heard of the fame of Iesus, |
|
14:2 |
And said vnto his seruants, This is Iohn the Baptist, hee is risen from the dead, and therfore mighty workes doe shew foorth themselues in him. |
|
14:3 |
For Herode had layd hold on Iohn, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias sake, his brother Philips wife. |
|
14:4 |
For Iohn said vnto him, It is not lawfull for thee to haue her. |
|
14:5 |
And when he would haue put him to death, hee feared the multitude, because they counted him as a Prophet. |
|
14:6 |
But when Herods birth day was kept, the daughter of Herodias daunced before them, and pleased Herode. |
|
14:7 |
Whereupon he promised with an oath, to giue her whatsoeuer she would aske. |
|
14:8 |
And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Giue me heere Iohn Baptists head in a charger. |
|
14:9 |
And the king was sorie: neuerthelesse for the othes sake, and them which sate with him at meate, he commanded it to be giuen her: |
|
14:10 |
And he sent, and beheaded Iohn in the prison. |
|
14:11 |
And his head was brought in a charger, and giuen to the Damsell: and she brought it to her mother. |
|
14:12 |
And his Disciples came, and took vp the body, and buried it, and went and told Iesus. |
|
14:13 |
When Iesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship, into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foote, out of the cities. |
|
14:14 |
And Iesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was mooued with compassion toward them, and he healed their sicke. |
|
14:15 |
And when it was euening, his Disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may goe into the villages, and buy themselues victuals. |
|
14:16 |
But Iesus said vnto them, They neede not depart; giue yee them to eate. |
|
14:17 |
And they say vnto him, We haue heere but fiue loaues, and two fishes. |
|
14:18 |
He said, Bring them hither to me. |
|
14:19 |
And hee commanded the multitude to sit downe on the grasse, & tooke the fiue loaues, and the two fishes, and looking vp to heauen, hee blessed, and brake, and gaue the loaues to his Disciples, and the Disciples to the multitude. |
|
14:20 |
And they did all eat, & were filled: and they tooke vp of the fragments that remained twelue baskets full. |
|
14:21 |
And they that had eaten, were about fiue thousand men, beside women and children. |
|
14:22 |
And straightway Iesus constrained his Disciples to get into a ship, and to goe before him vnto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away. |
|
14:23 |
And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went vp into a mountaine apart to pray: and when the euening was come, he was there alone: |
|
14:24 |
But the ship was now in the midst of the Sea, tossed with waues: for the wind was contrary. |
|
14:25 |
And in the fourth watch of the night, Iesus went vnto them, walking on the Sea. |
|
14:26 |
And when the Disciples saw him walking on the Sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit: and they cried out for feare. |
|
14:27 |
But straightway Iesus spake vnto them, saying, Be of good cheere: it is I, be not afraid. |
|
14:28 |
And Peter answered him, and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come vnto thee on the water. |
|
14:29 |
And he said, Come. And when Peter was come downe out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Iesus. |
|
14:30 |
But when he saw the wind boysterous, he was afraid: and beginning to sinke, he cried, saying, Lord saue me. |
|
14:31 |
And immediately Iesus stretched foorth his hand, and caught him, and said vnto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? |
|
14:32 |
And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased. |
|
14:33 |
Then they that were in the ship, came and worshipped him, saying, Of a trueth thou art the sonne of God. |
|
14:34 |
And when they were gone ouer, they came into ye land of Genesaret. |
|
14:35 |
And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that countrey round about, and brought vnto him al that were diseased, |
|
14:36 |
And besought him, that they might onely touch the hemme of his garment; and as many as touched, were made perfectly whole. |
