King James Version
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports
about
Jesus
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of
the fame
of
Jesus ,
and said to
his servants, “
This is John the Baptist; he has
risen from the dead !
That
is
why
miraculous
powers
are
at
work
in him. ”
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.
Now
Herod had arrested
John and bound him and put him in prison on
account
of
Herodias, his brother Philip’s
wife ,
For
Herod had laid
hold
on
John ,
and bound him ,
and put him in prison for
Herodias '
sake
, his brother Philip's
wife .
because
John had
been
telling
him, “
It is not lawful for you
to have her. ”
For
John said
unto
him, It is not lawful for thee
to have her.
Although
Herod
wanted
to kill
John
, he was
afraid
of
the people
, because they regarded
John
as a prophet.
And
when
he
would
have
put
him
to death
, he feared
the multitude
, because they counted
him
as a prophet.
On
Herod’s
birthday ,
however
, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod
But
when
Herod's
birthday was
kept
, the daughter of Herodias danced before them ,
and pleased Herod .
so
much
that
he promised with an oath to give to
her whatever
she asked
.
Whereupon
he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever
she would
ask
.
Prompted
by
her mother, she
said, “
Give me here on
a
platter
the
head
of
John the
Baptist
. ”
And
she,
being
before
instructed
of
her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's
head
in
a
charger
.
The king was grieved
, but
because
of
his
oaths
and his
guests
, he ordered
that
her
wish
be granted
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.
and sent to
have
John
beheaded in the prison.
And he
sent ,
and
beheaded John
in the prison.
John’s
head was brought in on
a platter
and presented
to the girl,
who
carried
it to her mother.
And
his
head was brought in a charger,
and given
to the damsel:
and
she
brought
it to her mother.
Then
John’s
disciples came and took his
body and buried it .
And they
went and informed
Jesus.
And
his
disciples came ,
and took up
the
body ,
and buried it ,
and went and told
Jesus.
When Jesus heard about
John
, He withdrew
by boat
privately
to
a solitary
place .
But
the
crowds
found
out
about
it
and followed Him on foot from
the towns
.
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
.
When
He
stepped
ashore
and saw a large
crowd
, He
had
compassion on
them and healed their sick.
And Jesus
went
forth,
and
saw a great
multitude
, and
was
moved
with
compassion toward
them ,
and he
healed their sick.
When evening came
, the
disciples came to Him and
said
, “
This is a desolate
place, and the hour
is already
late.
Dismiss
the crowds
so
they can
go to
the villages and buy themselves some
food
. ”
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
.
“
They do
not
need to
go
away,”
Jesus
replied.
“You
give them something
to eat. ”
But
Jesus
said
unto
them,
They need not
depart;
give ye
them to eat.
“
We have here only
five loaves of
bread
and two fish,”
they
answered
.
And
they
say
unto
him,
We have here but
five loaves ,
and two fishes
.
“
Bring them here
to Me ,”
Jesus
said
.
He
said,
Bring them hither
to me.
And He directed
the crowds
to sit down on the grass .
Taking
the five loaves and the two fish
and looking up to heaven, He spoke
a
blessing.
Then
He
broke
the
loaves
and gave them
to
the disciples, and the disciples gave
them
to the people
.
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
.
They all ate
and were satisfied,
and the
disciples
picked
up twelve
basketfuls
of broken
pieces
that were
left
over
.
And
they did
all eat,
and were filled:
and they
took
up of the
fragments
that remained
twelve
baskets
full
.
About five thousand men were
fed
, in
addition
to
women and children.
And
they
that
had
eaten
were
about five thousand men, beside
women and children.
Immediately
Jesus made
the
disciples get into the
boat
and go on
ahead
of
Him to
the other side, while He dismissed
the crowds
.
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
.
After
He had sent them
away, He went up on
the
mountain by
Himself
to pray .
When evening came
, He was there alone ,
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 .
but the boat
was already
far
from
land,
buffeted
by
the waves because
the wind was against
it
.
But the ship
was now
in
the midst
of
the
sea,
tossed
with
waves :
for
the wind was contrary
.
During
the fourth watch of the night ,
Jesus went out
to
them, walking on the sea.
And
in
the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto
them, walking on the sea.
When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified.
“It’s
a
ghost!”
they
said
, and cried out in
fear.
And
when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled
, saying,
It
is
a
spirit;
and they
cried out for
fear.
But Jesus spoke
up
at
once:
“Take
courage!
It is I .
Do
not
be afraid. ”
But straightway
Jesus spake
unto
them,
saying,
Be
of
good
cheer;
it is I ;
be not
afraid.
“
Lord, if it is
You,”
Peter
replied
, “command
me to
come to
You
on the water. ”
And
Peter
answered
him
and
said,
Lord, if it be
thou
, bid
me come unto
thee
on the water.
“Come,”
said Jesus
. Then
Peter got
down out of the boat
, walked on the water, and
came
toward
Jesus.
And
he
said ,
Come
. And
when
Peter was
come
down out of the ship
, he
walked on the water, to
go
to
Jesus.
But when he saw the strength
of
the
wind, he was afraid ,
and beginning to sink, cried out
, “
Lord, save me !”
But when he saw the wind boisterous
, he was afraid ;
and beginning to sink, he
cried, saying,
Lord, save me .
Immediately Jesus reached
out
His hand and took
hold
of
Peter.
“You
of little faith, ”
He
said,
“why
did
you
doubt? ”
And
immediately Jesus stretched
forth
his hand ,
and caught
him,
and
said
unto
him,
O
thou
of little faith, wherefore
didst
thou
doubt?
And when they had
climbed
back
into the boat
, the wind died
down
.
And when they were
come
into the ship
, the wind ceased
.
Then those
who
were in the boat
worshiped
Him, saying, “Truly
You
are
the Son of God !”
Then they
that
were in the ship
came
and
worshipped
him, saying, Of
a
truth
thou
art
the Son of God .
When they had
crossed
over, they landed
at
Gennesaret.
And
when they were
gone
over, they came
into
the
land
of
Gennesaret.
And when the men of that place recognized
Jesus
, they sent word
to
all the
surrounding
region.
People
brought all
the
sick
to
Him
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;
and begged
Him just
to
let
them
touch the fringe
of His cloak.
And all
who
touched Him
were healed
.
And besought
him that
they
might
only
touch the hem
of his garment:
and as
many
as
touched were made
perfectly
whole
.
