14:1 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
14:2 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.
14:3 For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put
[him] in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
14:4 For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have
her.
14:5 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the
multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
14:6 But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of
Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
14:7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever
she would ask.
14:8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give
me here John Baptist's head in a charger.
14:9 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].
14:10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
14:11 And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the
damsel: and she brought [it] to her mother.
14:12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried
it, and went and told Jesus.
14:13 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.
14:14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was
moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
14:15 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.
14:16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye
them to eat.
14:17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and
two fishes.
14:18 He said, Bring them hither to me.
14:19 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.
14:20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up
of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
14:21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men,
beside women and children.
14:22 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.
14:23 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.
14:24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with
waves: for the wind was contrary.
14:25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto 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
fear.
14:27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good
cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
14:28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid
me come unto thee on the water.
14:29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of
the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
14:30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and
beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
14:31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth [his] hand, and
caught him, and said unto 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 truth thou art the Son of God.
14:34 And when they were gone over, they came into the land of
Gennesaret.
14:35 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;
14:36 And besought him that they might only touch the hem of
his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
