Κατα Ματθαιον 14
1 εν εκεινω τω καιρω ηκουσεν ηρωδησ ο τετραρχησ την ακοην ιησου
At that time Herod the Tetrarche heard of the fame of Iesus,
2 και ειπεν τοισ παισιν αυτου ουτοσ εστιν ιωαννησ ο βαπτιστησ αυτοσ ηγερθη απο των νεκρων και δια τουτο αι δυναμεισ ενεργουσιν εν αυτω
And sayde vnto his seruaunts, This is that Iohn Baptist, hee is risen againe from the deade, and therefore great woorkes are wrought by him.
3 ο γαρ ηρωδησ κρατησασ τον ιωαννην εδησεν αυτον και εθετο εν φυλακη δια ηρωδιαδα την γυναικα φιλιππου του αδελφου αυτου
For Herod had taken Iohn, and bounde him, and put him in prison for Herodias sake, his brother Philips wife.
4 ελεγεν γαρ αυτω ο ιωαννησ ουκ εξεστιν σοι εχειν αυτην
For Iohn saide vnto him, It is not lawfull for thee to haue her.
5 και θελων αυτον αποκτειναι εφοβηθη τον οχλον οτι ωσ προφητην αυτον ειχον
And when hee woulde haue put him to death, hee feared the multitude, because they counted him as a Prophet.
6 γενεσιων δε αγομενων του ηρωδου ωρχησατο η θυγατηρ τησ ηρωδιαδοσ εν τω μεσω και ηρεσεν τω ηρωδη
But when Herods birth day was kept, the daughter of Herodias daunced before them, and pleased Herod.
7 οθεν μεθ ορκου ωμολογησεν αυτη δουναι ο εαν αιτησηται
Wherefore he promised with an othe, that he would giue her whatsoeuer she would aske.
8 η δε προβιβασθεισα υπο τησ μητροσ αυτησ δοσ μοι φησιν ωδε επι πινακι την κεφαλην ιωαννου του βαπτιστου
And shee being before instructed of her mother, sayde, Giue mee here Iohn Baptists head in a platter.
9 και ελυπηθη ο βασιλευσ δια δε τουσ ορκουσ και τουσ συνανακειμενουσ εκελευσεν δοθηναι
And the King was sorie: neuerthelesse because of the othe, and them that sate with him at the table, he commanded it to be giuen her,
10 και πεμψασ απεκεφαλισεν τον ιωαννην εν τη φυλακη
And sent, and beheaded Iohn in the prison.
11 και ηνεχθη η κεφαλη αυτου επι πινακι και εδοθη τω κορασιω και ηνεγκεν τη μητρι αυτησ
And his head was brought in a platter, and giuen to the maide, and shee brought it vnto her mother.
12 και προσελθοντεσ οι μαθηται αυτου ηραν το σωμα και εθαψαν αυτο και ελθοντεσ απηγγειλαν τω ιησου
And his disciples came, and tooke vp the bodie, and buried it, and went, and tolde Iesus.
13 και ακουσασ ο ιησουσ ανεχωρησεν εκειθεν εν πλοιω εισ ερημον τοπον κατ ιδιαν και ακουσαντεσ οι οχλοι ηκολουθησαν αυτω πεζη απο των πολεων
And when Iesus heard it, hee departed thence by shippe into a desert place apart. And when the multitude had heard it, they followed him on foote out of the cities.
14 και εξελθων ο ιησουσ ειδεν πολυν οχλον και εσπλαγχνισθη επ αυτοισ και εθεραπευσεν τουσ αρρωστουσ αυτων
And Iesus went foorth and sawe a great multitude, and was mooued with compassion toward them, and he healed their sicke.
15 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
And when euen was come, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desart place, and the time is alreadie past: let the multitude depart, that they may goe into the townes, and bye them vitailes.
16 ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ ου χρειαν εχουσιν απελθειν δοτε αυτοισ υμεισ φαγειν
But Iesus saide to them, They haue no neede to goe away: giue yee them to eate.
17 οι δε λεγουσιν αυτω ουκ εχομεν ωδε ει μη πεντε αρτουσ και δυο ιχθυασ
Then saide they vnto him, Wee haue here but fiue loaues, and two fishes.
18 ο δε ειπεν φερετε μοι αυτουσ ωδε
And he saide, Bring them hither to me.
19 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
And hee commanded the multitude to sit downe on the grasse, and tooke the fiue loaues and the two fishes, and looked vp to heauen and blessed, and brake, and gaue the loaues to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20 και εφαγον παντεσ και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων δωδεκα κοφινουσ πληρεισ
And they did all eate, and were sufficed, and they tooke vp of the fragments that remained, twelue baskets full.
21 οι δε εσθιοντεσ ησαν ανδρεσ ωσει πεντακισχιλιοι χωρισ γυναικων και παιδιων
And they that had eaten, were about fiue thousande men, beside women and litle children.
22 και ευθεωσ ηναγκασεν ο ιησουσ τουσ μαθητασ εμβηναι εισ το πλοιον και προαγειν αυτον εισ το περαν εωσ ου απολυση τουσ οχλουσ
And straightway Iesus compelled his disciples to enter into a shippe, and to goe ouer before him, while he sent the multitude away.
23 και απολυσασ τουσ οχλουσ ανεβη εισ το οροσ κατ ιδιαν προσευξασθαι οψιασ δε γενομενησ μονοσ ην εκει
And assoone as hee had sent the multitude away, he went vp into a moutaine alone to pray: and when the euening was come, hee was there alone.
24 το δε πλοιον ηδη μεσον τησ θαλασσησ ην βασανιζομενον υπο των κυματων ην γαρ εναντιοσ ο ανεμοσ
And the shippe was nowe in the middes of the sea, and was tossed with waues: for it was a contrarie winde.
25 τεταρτη δε φυλακη τησ νυκτοσ απηλθεν προσ αυτουσ ο ιησουσ περιπατων επι τησ θαλασσησ
And in the fourth watch of the night, Iesus went vnto them, walking on the sea.
26 και ιδοντεσ αυτον οι μαθηται επι την θαλασσαν περιπατουντα εταραχθησαν λεγοντεσ οτι φαντασμα εστιν και απο του φοβου εκραξαν
And when his disciples sawe him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit, and cried out for feare.
27 ευθεωσ δε ελαλησεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ λεγων θαρσειτε εγω ειμι μη φοβεισθε
But straight way Iesus spake vnto them, saying, Be of good comfort, It is I: be not afraide.
28 αποκριθεισ δε αυτω ο πετροσ ειπεν κυριε ει συ ει κελευσον με προσ σε ελθειν επι τα υδατα
Then Peter answered him, and saide, Master, if it be thou, bid me come vnto thee on the water.
29 ο δε ειπεν ελθε και καταβασ απο του πλοιου ο πετροσ περιεπατησεν επι τα υδατα ελθειν προσ τον ιησουν
And he saide, Come. And when Peter was come downe out of the shippe, he walked on the water, to goe to Iesus.
30 βλεπων δε τον ανεμον ισχυρον εφοβηθη και αρξαμενοσ καταποντιζεσθαι εκραξεν λεγων κυριε σωσον με
But when he sawe a mightie winde, he was afraide: and as he began to sinke, he cried, saying, Master, saue me.
31 ευθεωσ δε ο ιησουσ εκτεινασ την χειρα επελαβετο αυτου και λεγει αυτω ολιγοπιστε εισ τι εδιστασασ
So immediatly Iesus stretched foorth his hande, and caught him, and saide to him, O thou of litle faith, wherefore diddest thou doubt?
32 και εμβαντων αυτων εισ το πλοιον εκοπασεν ο ανεμοσ
And assoone as they were come into the ship, the winde ceased.
33 οι δε εν τω πλοιω ελθοντεσ προσεκυνησαν αυτω λεγοντεσ αληθωσ θεου υιοσ ει
Then they that were in the ship, came and worshipped him, saying, Of a trueth thou art the Sonne of God.
34 και διαπερασαντεσ ηλθον εισ την γην γεννησαρετ
And when they were come ouer, they came into the land of Gennezaret.
35 και επιγνοντεσ αυτον οι ανδρεσ του τοπου εκεινου απεστειλαν εισ ολην την περιχωρον εκεινην και προσηνεγκαν αυτω παντασ τουσ κακωσ εχοντασ
And when the men of that place knewe him, they sent out into all that countrey rounde about, and brought vnto him all that were sicke,
36 και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα μονον αψωνται του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου και οσοι ηψαντο διεσωθησαν
And besought him, that they might touch the hemme of his garment onely: and as many as touched it, were made whole.
