4 Yeshua said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house."
But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not despised save in his own country, and among [his] kinsmen, and in his own house.
5 And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people, and healed them.
And he could not do any work of power there, save that laying his hands on a few infirm persons he healed [them].
6 And he was amazed because of their unbelief. And he went around the villages teaching.

7 And he called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.

10 And he said to them, "Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.

11 And if any place will not receive you or listen to you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them."
And whatsoever place shall not receive you nor hear you, departing thence, shake off the dust which is under your feet for a testimony to them.

14 King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, "John the Immerser has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."
And Herod the king heard [of him] (for his name had become public), and said, John the baptist is risen from among [the] dead, and on this account works of power are wrought by him.
15 But others said, "He is Elijah." Others said, "He is a prophet, like one of the prophets."
And others said, It is Elias; and others said, It is a prophet, as one of the prophets.
16 But Herod, when he heard this, said, "This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen."
But Herod when he heard [it] said, John whom I beheaded, he it is; he is risen [from among the dead].
17 For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, for he had married her.
For the same Herod had sent and seized John, and had bound him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of Philip his brother, because he had married her.
18 For John said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."
For John said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have the wife of thy brother.
19 So Herodias set herself against him, and desired to kill him, but she could not,
But Herodias kept it [in her mind] against him, and wished to kill him, and could not:
20 for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. And when he heard him, he was very perplexed, but he heard him gladly.

And a holiday being come, when Herod, on his birthday, made a supper to his grandees, and to the chiliarchs, and the chief [men] of Galilee;
22 And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young woman, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."
and the daughter of the same Herodias having come in, and danced, pleased Herod and those that were with [him] at table; and the king said to the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt and I will give it thee.
23 And he swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."
And he swore to her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask me I will give thee, to half of my kingdom.
24 So she went out, and said to her mother, "What should I ask?" And she said, "The head of John, the one immersing."
And she went out, and said to her mother, What should I ask? And she said, The head of John the baptist.
25 And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, "I want you to give me right now the head of John the Immerser on a platter."
And immediately going in with haste to the king, she asked saying, I desire that thou give me directly upon a dish the head of John the baptist.
26 And the king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and of his dinner guests, he did not wish to refuse her.
And the king, [while] made very sorry, on account of the oaths and those lying at table with [him] would not break his word with her.
27 So immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring John's head, and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

29 And when his talmidim heard this, they came and took up his corpse, and placed it in a tomb.

30 Then the emissaries gathered themselves together to Yeshua, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
And the apostles are gathered together to Jesus. And they related to him all things, [both] what they had done and what they had taught.
31 And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to an isolated place, and rest awhile." For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place and rest a little. For those coming and those going were many, and they had not leisure even to eat.
32 So they went away in the boat to an isolated place by themselves.
And they went away apart into a desert place by ship.
33 But they saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities and they arrived before them.
And many saw them going, and recognised them, and ran together there on foot, out of all the cities, and got [there] before them.

36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages, and buy themselves something to eat."
send them away that they may go into the country and villages around, and buy themselves bread, for they have not anything they can eat.
37 But he answered them, "You give them something to eat." They asked him, "Are we to go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give them something to eat?"
And he answering said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them to eat?
38 He said to them, "How many loaves do you have? Go see." When they knew, they said, "Five, and two fish."
And he says to them, How many loaves have ye? Go [and] see. And when they knew they say, Five, and two fishes.
39 He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
And he ordered them to make them all sit down by companies on the green grass.
40 They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
And they sat down in ranks by hundreds and by fifties.
41 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his talmidim to set before them, and he divided the two fish among them all.
And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave [them] to his disciples that they might set [them] before them. And the two fishes he divided among all.
42 They all ate, and were filled.
And they all ate and were satisfied.
43 They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
And they took up of fragments the fillings of twelve hand-baskets, and of the fishes.
44 Those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.

45 And immediately he made his talmidim get into the boat, and to go ahead to the other side, to Beit Tzaidah, while he himself sent the crowd away.

46 After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.

47 When evening had come, the boat was in the midst of the lake, and he was alone on the land.
And when evening was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land.
48 He saw them distressed in rowing, for the wind was against them. In the watch between three and six in the morning he came to them, walking on the lake, and he would have passed by them,
And seeing them labouring in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he comes to them walking on the sea, and would have passed them by.
49 but they, when they saw him walking on the lake, supposed that it was a ghost, and began to scream;
But they, seeing him walking on the sea, thought that it was an apparition, and cried out.
50 for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them, "Cheer up. It is I. Do not be afraid."
For all saw him and were troubled. And immediately he spoke with them, and says to them, Be of good courage: it is I; be not afraid.
51 And he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they were completely profusely astonished among themselves;
And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind fell. And they were exceedingly beyond measure astonished in themselves and wondered;
52 for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.
for they understood not through the loaves: for their heart was hardened.
53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.
And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and made the shore.
54 When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,

55 and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick, on their mats, to where they heard he was.
they ran through that whole country around, and began to carry about those that were ill on couches, where they heard that he was.
56 Wherever he entered, into villages, or into cities, or into the country, they placed the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch just the fringe of his garment; and everyone who touched him were made well.
And wherever he entered into villages, or cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the market-places, and besought him that they might touch if it were only the hem of his garment; and as many as touched him were healed.
