2 When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

12 So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13 They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14 Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

15 Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16 But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17 For Herod himself had ordered that John be arrested and bound and imprisoned, on account of his brother Philip’s wife Herodias, whom Herod had married.

18 For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⳿ⲛⲎ̇ⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϭⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕⲥⲟⲛ.
19 So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20 because Herod feared John and protected him, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man. When he heard John’s words, he was greatly perplexed; yet he listened to him gladly.

21 On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22 When the daughter of Herodias came and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”

23 And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24 Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25 At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲡⲟⲩⲇⲏ ϩⲁ ⳿ⲡⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲁⲥⲉⲣ⳿ⲉⲧⲓⲛ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲕϯ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲒⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲓⲣⲉϥϯⲱⲙⲥ ϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲃⲓⲛⲁϫ.
26 The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27 So without delay, the king commanded that John’s head be brought in. He sent an executioner, who went and beheaded him in the prison.

28 The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29 When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30 Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31 And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

32 So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

34 When Jesus stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.

35 By now the hour was already late. So the disciples came to Jesus and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late.

37 But Jesus told them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked Him, “Should we go out and spend two hundred denarii to give all of them bread to eat?”

38 “Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

41 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, Jesus spoke a blessing and broke the loaves. Then He gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And He divided the two fish among them all.
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲃ̅ ⲁϥϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲫⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲭⲱ ⲛⲁϩⲣⲁⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲕⲉⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⲃ̅ ⲁϥⲫⲁϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲁⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
42 They all ate and were satisfied,
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲥⲓ.
43 and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙ ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲧⲉⲃⲧ.
44 And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲥⲱⲕ ϧⲁϫⲱϥ ⳿ⲉⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲉⲂⲏⲑⲥⲁⲓⲇⲁ ϣⲁⲧⲉϥⲭⲁ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
46 After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲡⲟⲧⲁⲍⲉⲥⲑⲉ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲉⲩⲭⲉⲥⲑⲉ.
47 When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.
ⲙ̅ⲍ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁ ⲣⲟⲩϩⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ϩⲓ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲟ.
48 He could see that the disciples were straining to row, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea. He intended to pass by them,
ⲙ̅ⲏ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲧϩⲉⲙⲕⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓϫⲓⲛⲥⲱⲕ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲓⲑⲏⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ϯ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲙⲁϩ ⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲣϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲣϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲥⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ.
49 but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—
ⲙ̅ⲑ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲟⲙ ⲛⲁⲩⲙⲉⲩⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩϩⲟⲣⲧϥ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
50 for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”
ⲛ̅ⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ϣⲑⲟⲣⲧⲉⲣ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϫⲉⲙⲛⲟⲙϯ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣϩⲟϯ.
51 Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,
ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲉⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲑⲏⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲧⲱⲙⲧ ⳿ⲉⲙⲁϣⲱ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
52 for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.
ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲕⲁϯ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲑⲏⲙ ⲡⲉ.
53 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54 As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55 and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56 And wherever He went—villages and towns and countrysides—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
