Matthew 14
1 During that time Herod [Antipas], the ruler, heard reports about Jesus [performing miracles].
В онова време четверовластникът Ирод чу слуха, който се носеше за Исуса;
2 He said to his servants: “That must be John the Baptizer. He must have risen from the dead, and that is why he has power to perform miracles.”
и рече на слугите си: Тоя е Йоан Кръстител; той е възкръснал от мъртвите, и затова тия сили действуват чрез него.
3 The reason [Herod thought that was this: Herod had married] Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, [while Philip was still living. So] John had been saying to him, “[What] you [did by] marrying [your brother’s wife while your brother is still alive is against God’s] law!” Then, to [please] Herodias, Herod [told his soldiers] to arrest John. They bound him with chains and put him in prison.
Защото Ирод беше хванал Йоана и беше го вързал и турил в тъмница, поради Иродиада, жената на брата си Филипа;
понеже Йоан му казваше: Не ти е позволено да я имаш.
5 Herod wanted to have John executed, but he was afraid that the people [who had accepted what John taught would riot if he did that], because they believed that John was a prophet.
И искаше да го убие, но се боеше от народа, защото го имаха за пророк.
6 But when Herod [gave a party to celebrate] his birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced for [his guests]. This pleased Herod.
А когато настана рожденият ден на Ирода, Иродиадината дъщеря игра всред събраните и угоди на Ирода.
7 So he promised to give her whatever she asked, and he asked God to punish him if he did not do what he had promised.
Затова той с клетва се обеща да й даде каквото и да му поиска.
8 [So Herodias’ daughter went and asked her mother what to ask for]. Her mother told her to ask for John the Baptizer’s head. [So] her daughter [went back and] said [to Herod]: “[Cut off] the head of John the Baptizer and [please] bring it here on a platter [so that my mother can know for sure that he is dead!]”
А тя, подучена от майка си, каза: Дай ми тука на блюдо главата на Йоана Кръстителя.
9 The king was distressed because he now knew he should not have made that promise to her. [But] because he had made an oath [in front of] his guests [when he made that promise], and [he did not want] them [to think that he would not do what he had promised], he commanded that [the girl] be given [what she requested].
Царят се наскърби; но заради клетвите си, и заради седящите с него, заповяда да й се даде.
10 He sent [the executioner to go to] the prison and to cut off John’s head.
И прати да обезглавят Йоана в тъмницата.
11 [The executioner did that, and] put John’s head on a platter and gave it to the girl. Then the girl took it to her mother.
И донесоха главата му на блюдо и дадоха я на девойката, а тя я занесе на майка си.
12 John’s disciples then went [to the prison], took John’s body and buried it, and they reported to Jesus [what had happened].
А учениците му като дойдоха, дигнаха тялото и го погребаха; и отидоха и казаха на Исуса.
13 After Jesus heard that, he took [just us disciples] with him and we went by boat [on Galilee Lake to an uninhabited place]. Matthew 14:13-21 After the crowds heard [that we had gone to an uninhabited place], they [left their towns and] followed Jesus, walking along the shore.
А Исус, като чу това, оттегли се оттам, с ладия на уединено място настрана; а народът като разбра, отиде подир него пеша от градовете.
14 When Jesus came [to the shore], he saw a large crowd of people [who had gathered there, waiting for him]. He felt sorry for them, and he healed those [among them who were] sick.
И Той, като излезе, видя голямо множество, смили се за тях, и изцели болните им.
15 When it was [nearly] evening, we disciples came to him and said, “This is a place where nobody lives, and it is very late. Dismiss the crowds so that they can go into the [nearby] towns. [Have them do that so that they can] buy food for themselves.”
А като се свечери, учениците дойдоха при Него, и рекоха: Мястото е уединено, и времето е вече напреднало; разпусни народа да си отиде пи селата да си купи храна.
16 But Jesus said to us, “They do not need to leave [to get food. Instead], you [yourselves] give them something to eat!”
А Исус им рече: Няма нужда да отидат; дайте им вие да ядат.
17 We said to him, “But we have only five loaves of bread and two [cooked] fish here!”
А те му казаха: Имаме тук само пет хляба и две риби.
18 He said [to us], “Bring them to me!”
А Той рече: Донесете ги тук при Мене.
19 He told the people [who had gathered there] to sit on the grass. Then he took the five flat loaves and the two fish. He looked up toward heaven, thanked [God for them], and broke [them into pieces]. Then he gave them to us disciples, and we distributed them to the crowd.
Тогава, като заповяда на народа да насяда на тревата, взе петте хляба и двете риби, погледна към небето и благослови; и като разчупи хлябовете, даде ги на учениците, а учениците на народа.
20 All [the people in the crowd] ate until they had enough to eat. Then we [disciples] gathered the pieces that were left over, [and we] filled twelve baskets with them.
И всички ядоха и се наситиха; и дигнаха останалите къшеи, дванадесет пълни коша.
21 Those who ate were about 5,000 men. [We did] not [count the] women and children!
А ония, които ядоха, бяха около пет хиляди мъже, освен жени и деца.
22 Right after that happened, Jesus told us disciples to get in the boat and to go ahead of him further around [the lake] while he dismissed the crowds.
И на часа Исус накара учениците да влязат в ладията и да отидат преди Него на отвъдната страна, докле разпусне народа.
23 After he dismissed them, he went up into the hills to pray by himself. When it was evening, he was [still] there alone.
И като разпусна народа, качи се на бърдото да се помоли насаме. И като се свечери, Той беше там сам.
24 [By this time] we were already many hundred meters from the shore. The boat was being severely tossed around by the waves {The waves were severely tossing the boat} because the wind was [blowing] against [it].
А ладията бе вече всред езерото, блъскана от вълните, защото вятърът беше противен.
25 [Then Jesus came down from the hills to the lake]. Some time between three and six o’clock in the morning he walked on the water toward our [boat].
А в четвъртата стража на нощта Той дойде към тях, като вървеше по езерото.
26 When we disciples saw someone walking on the water, we thought that [we must be seeing] a ghost. We were terrified, and we screamed out because we were afraid.
А учениците, като Го видяха да ходи по езерото; смутиха се и думаха, че е призрак, и от страх извикаха.
27 Immediately Jesus said to us, “Cheer up! It is I. Do not be afraid!”
И Исус веднага им проговори, казвайки: Дерзайте! Аз съм; не бойте се.
28 Peter said to him, “Lord, if it is you, tell me to walk on the water to you!”
И Петър в отговор Му рече: Господи, ако си Ти, кажи ми да дойда при Тебе по водата.
29 Then Jesus said, “Come!” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water toward Jesus.
А Той рече: Дойди. И Петър слезе от ладията и ходеше по водата да иде при Исуса.
30 But when Peter looked at the [tossing waves which] the strong wind [caused], he became afraid. He began to sink, and cried out, “Lord, save me!”
Но като виждаше вятърът [силен], уплаши се и, като потъваше, извика, казвайки: Господи избави ме!
31 Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and grabbed him. He said to Peter, “You only trust a little bit [in my power] (Why did you doubt [that I could keep you from sinking]?/You should not have doubted [that I could keep you from sinking]!) [RHQ]”
И Исус веднага простря ръка, хвана го, и му рече: Маловерецо, защо се усъмни?
32 Then Jesus and Peter got in the boat, and the wind [immediately] stopped blowing.
И като влязоха в ладията, вятърът утихна.
33 All [of us disciples] who were in the boat worshipped Jesus and said, “Truly you are the (Son of/man two is also) God!”
А ония, които бяха в ладията, Му се поклониха и казаха: Наистина Ти си Божий Син.
34 When we had gone further around [the lake in the boat], we came ashore at Gennesaret [town].
И като преминаха езерото, дойдоха в генисаретската земя.
35 The men of that area recognized Jesus. So they sent [people to inform those who lived] in that whole surrounding region [MTY] [that Jesus was in their area]. [So the people] brought to Jesus all the sick people [who lived in that region].
И когато Го познаха тамошните мъже, разпратиха по цялата оная околност и доведоха при Него всичките болни;
36 [The sick people] kept begging him to allow them to touch [him or] just to touch the edge of his robe [so that they would be healed]. And all who touched [him or his robe] were healed {he healed all who touched [him or his clothing]}.
и молеха Го да се допрат само до полата на дрехата Му; и колкото се допряха, се изцелиха.
