New Testament
Matthew 14
1At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus
εν εκεινω τω καιρω ηκουσεν ηρωδης ο τετραρχης την ακοην ιησου
2and said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.'
και ειπεν τοις παισιν αυτου· ουτος εστιν ιωαννης ο βαπτιστης· αυτος ηγερθη απο των νεκρων, και δια τουτο αι δυναμεις ενεργουσιν εν αυτω.
3For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
ο γαρ ηρωδης κρατησας τον ιωαννην εδησεν αυτον και εθετο εν φυλακη δια ηρωδιαδα την γυναικα φιλιππου του αδελφου αυτου.
4Because John had said to him, 'It is not lawful for you to have her.'
ελεγεν γαρ αυτω ο ιωαννης· ουκ εξεστιν σοι εχειν αυτην.
5And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
και θελων αυτον αποκτειναι εφοβηθη τον οχλον, οτι ως προφητην αυτον ειχον.
6But when Herod's birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.
γενεσιων δε αγομενων του ηρωδου ωρχησατο η θυγατηρ της ηρωδιαδος εν τω μεσω και ηρεσεν τω ηρωδη·
7Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.
οθεν μεθ ορκου ωμολογησεν αυτη δουναι ο εαν αιτησηται.
8So she, having been prompted by her mother, said, 'Give me John the Baptist's head here on a platter.'
η δε, προβιβασθεισα υπο της μητρος αυτης, δος μοι, φησιν, ωδε επι πινακι την κεφαλην ιωαννου του βαπτιστου.
9And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he commanded it to be given to her.
και ελυπηθη ο βασιλευς, δια δε τους ορκους και τους συνανακειμενους εκελευσεν δοθηναι,
10So he sent and had John beheaded in prison.
και πεμψας απεκεφαλισεν τον ιωαννην εν τη φυλακη.
11And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
και ηνεχθη η κεφαλη αυτου επι πινακι και εδοθη τω κορασιω, και ηνεγκεν τη μητρι αυτης.
12Then his disciples came and took away the body and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
και προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηραν το σωμα και εθαψαν αυτο, και ελθοντες απηγγειλαν τω ιησου.
13When Jesus heard it, He departed from there by boat to a deserted place by Himself. But when the multitudes heard it, they followed Him on foot from the cities.
ακουσας δε ο ιησους ανεχωρησεν εκειθεν εν πλοιω εις ερημον τοπον κατ ιδιαν· και ακουσαντες οι οχλοι ηκολουθησαν αυτω πεζη απο των πολεων.
14And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.
και εξελθων ο ιησους ειδεν πολυν οχλον, και εσπλαγχνισθη επ αυτοις και εθεραπευσεν τους αρρωστους αυτων.
15When it was evening, His disciples came to Him, saying, 'This is a deserted place, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.'
οψιας δε γενομενης προσηλθον αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου λεγοντες· ερημος εστιν ο τοπος και η ωρα ηδη παρηλθεν· απολυσον τους οχλους, ινα απελθοντες εις τας κωμας αγορασωσιν εαυτοις βρωματα.
16But Jesus said to them, 'They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.'
ο δε ιησους ειπεν αυτοις· ου χρειαν εχουσιν απελθειν· δοτε αυτοις υμεις φαγειν.
17And they said to Him, 'We have here only five loaves and two fish.'
οι δε λεγουσιν αυτω· ουκ εχομεν ωδε ει μη πεντε αρτους και δυο ιχθυας.
18He said, 'Bring them here to Me.'
ο δε ειπεν· φερετε μοι αυτους ωδε.
19Then He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
και κελευσας τους οχλους ανακλιθηναι επι τους χορτους, λαβων τους πεντε αρτους και τους δυο ιχθυας, αναβλεψας εις τον ουρανον ευλογησεν, και κλασας εδωκεν τοις μαθηταις τους αρτους, οι δε μαθηται τοις οχλοις.
20So they all ate and were filled, and they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments that remained.
και εφαγον παντες και εχορτασθησαν, και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων δωδεκα κοφινους πληρεις.
21Now those who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
οι δε εσθιοντες ησαν ανδρες ωσει πεντακισχιλιοι χωρις γυναικων και παιδιων.
22Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away.
και ευθεως ηναγκασεν ο ιησους τους μαθητας αυτου εμβηναι εις το πλοιον και προαγειν αυτον εις το περαν, εως ου απολυση τους οχλους.
23And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there.
και απολυσας τους οχλους ανεβη εις το ορος κατ ιδιαν προσευξασθαι. οψιας δε γενομενης μονος ην εκει.
24But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
το δε πλοιον ηδη μεσον της θαλασσης ην, βασανιζομενον υπο των κυματων· ην γαρ εναντιος ο ανεμος.
25Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.
τεταρτη δε φυλακη της νυκτος απηλθεν προς αυτους ο ιησους περιπατων επι της θαλασσης.
26And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, 'It is a ghost!' And they cried out for fear.
και ιδοντες αυτον οι μαθηται επι την θαλασσαν περιπατουντα εταραχθησαν λεγοντες οτι φαντασμα εστιν, και απο του φοβου εκραξαν.
27But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, 'Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.'
ευθεως δε ελαλησεν αυτοις ο ιησους λεγων· θαρσειτε, εγω ειμι· μη φοβεισθε.
28And Peter answered Him and said, 'Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.'
αποκριθεις δε αυτω ο πετρος ειπεν· κυριε, ει συ ει, κελευσον με προς σε ελθειν επι τα υδατα.
29So He said, 'Come.' And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus.
ο δε ειπεν, ελθε. και καταβας απο του πλοιου ο πετρος περιεπατησεν επι τα υδατα ελθειν προς τον ιησουν.
30But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, 'Lord, save me!'
βλεπων δε τον ανεμον ισχυρον εφοβηθη, και αρξαμενος καταποντιζεσθαι εκραξεν λεγων· κυριε, σωσον με.
31And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, 'O you of little faith, why did you doubt?'
ευθεως δε ο ιησους εκτεινας την χειρα επελαβετο αυτου και λεγει αυτω· ολιγοπιστε! εις τι εδιστασας;
32And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
και εμβαντων αυτων εις το πλοιον εκοπασεν ο ανεμος·
33Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, 'Truly You are the Son of God.'
οι δε εν τω πλοιω ελθοντες προσεκυνησαν αυτω λεγοντες· αληθως θεου υιος ει.
34When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
και διαπερασαντες ηλθον εις την γην γεννησαρετ.
35And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick,
και επιγνοντες αυτον οι ανδρες του τοπου εκεινου απεστειλαν εις ολην την περιχωρον εκεινην, και προσηνεγκαν αυτω παντας τους κακως εχοντας,
36and begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched it were made perfectly well.
και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα καν μονον αψωνται του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου· και οσοι ηψαντο διεσωθησαν.
