< Matius 14 >

1 Pada masa itu sampailah berita-berita tentang Yesus kepada Herodes, raja wilayah.
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
2 Lalu ia berkata kepada pegawai-pegawainya: "Inilah Yohanes Pembaptis; ia sudah bangkit dari antara orang mati dan itulah sebabnya kuasa-kuasa itu bekerja di dalam-Nya."
And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.
3 Sebab memang Herodes telah menyuruh menangkap Yohanes, membelenggunya dan memenjarakannya, berhubung dengan peristiwa Herodias, isteri Filipus saudaranya.
For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put [him] in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.
4 Karena Yohanes pernah menegornya, katanya: "Tidak halal engkau mengambil Herodias!"
For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5 Herodes ingin membunuhnya, tetapi ia takut akan orang banyak yang memandang Yohanes sebagai nabi.
And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 Tetapi pada hari ulang tahun Herodes, menarilah anak perempuan Herodias di tengah-tengah mereka dan menyukakan hati Herodes,
But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
7 sehingga Herodes bersumpah akan memberikan kepadanya apa saja yang dimintanya.
Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.
8 Maka setelah dihasut oleh ibunya, anak perempuan itu berkata: "Berikanlah aku di sini kepala Yohanes Pembaptis di sebuah talam."
And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist’s head in a charger.
9 Lalu sedihlah hati raja, tetapi karena sumpahnya dan karena tamu-tamunya diperintahkannya juga untuk memberikannya.
And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath’s sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded [it] to be given [her].
10 Disuruhnya memenggal kepala Yohanes di penjara
And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
11 dan kepala Yohanes itupun dibawa orang di sebuah talam, lalu diberikan kepada gadis itu dan ia membawanya kepada ibunya.
And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought [it] to her mother.
12 Kemudian datanglah murid-murid Yohanes Pembaptis mengambil mayatnya dan menguburkannya. Lalu pergilah mereka memberitahukannya kepada Yesus.
And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
13 Setelah Yesus mendengar berita itu menyingkirlah Ia dari situ, dan hendak mengasingkan diri dengan perahu ke tempat yang sunyi. Tetapi orang banyak mendengarnya dan mengikuti Dia dengan mengambil jalan darat dari kota-kota mereka.
When Jesus heard [of it], he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard [thereof], they followed him on foot out of the cities.
14 Ketika Yesus mendarat, Ia melihat orang banyak yang besar jumlahnya, maka tergeraklah hati-Nya oleh belas kasihan kepada mereka dan Ia menyembuhkan mereka yang sakit.
And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
15 Menjelang malam, murid-murid-Nya datang kepada-Nya dan berkata: "Tempat ini sunyi dan hari sudah mulai malam. Suruhlah orang banyak itu pergi supaya mereka dapat membeli makanan di desa-desa."
And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
16 Tetapi Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Tidak perlu mereka pergi, kamu harus memberi mereka makan."
But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
17 Jawab mereka: "Yang ada pada kami di sini hanya lima roti dan dua ikan."
And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
18 Yesus berkata: "Bawalah ke mari kepada-Ku."
He said, Bring them hither to me.
19 Lalu disuruh-Nya orang banyak itu duduk di rumput. Dan setelah diambil-Nya lima roti dan dua ikan itu, Yesus menengadah ke langit dan mengucap berkat, lalu memecah-mecahkan roti itu dan memberikannya kepada murid-murid-Nya, lalu murid-murid-Nya membagi-bagikannya kepada orang banyak.
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to [his] disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20 Dan mereka semuanya makan sampai kenyang. Kemudian orang mengumpulkan potongan-potongan roti yang sisa, dua belas bakul penuh.
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
21 Yang ikut makan kira-kira lima ribu laki-laki, tidak termasuk perempuan dan anak-anak.
And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.
22 Sesudah itu Yesus segera memerintahkan murid-murid-Nya naik ke perahu dan mendahului-Nya ke seberang, sementara itu Ia menyuruh orang banyak pulang.
And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
23 Dan setelah orang banyak itu disuruh-Nya pulang, Yesus naik ke atas bukit untuk berdoa seorang diri. Ketika hari sudah malam, Ia sendirian di situ.
And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
24 Perahu murid-murid-Nya sudah beberapa mil jauhnya dari pantai dan diombang-ambingkan gelombang, karena angin sakal.
But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
25 Kira-kira jam tiga malam datanglah Yesus kepada mereka berjalan di atas air.
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
26 Ketika murid-murid-Nya melihat Dia berjalan di atas air, mereka terkejut dan berseru: "Itu hantu!", lalu berteriak-teriak karena takut.
And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
27 Tetapi segera Yesus berkata kepada mereka: "Tenanglah! Aku ini, jangan takut!"
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
28 Lalu Petrus berseru dan menjawab Dia: "Tuhan, apabila Engkau itu, suruhlah aku datang kepada-Mu berjalan di atas air."
And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
29 Kata Yesus: "Datanglah!" Maka Petrus turun dari perahu dan berjalan di atas air mendapatkan Yesus.
And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
30 Tetapi ketika dirasanya tiupan angin, takutlah ia dan mulai tenggelam lalu berteriak: "Tuhan, tolonglah aku!"
But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31 Segera Yesus mengulurkan tangan-Nya, memegang dia dan berkata: "Hai orang yang kurang percaya, mengapa engkau bimbang?"
And immediately Jesus stretched forth [his] hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
32 Lalu mereka naik ke perahu dan anginpun redalah.
And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
33 Dan orang-orang yang ada di perahu menyembah Dia, katanya: "Sesungguhnya Engkau Anak Allah."
Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.
34 Setibanya di seberang mereka mendarat di Genesaret.
And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.
35 Ketika Yesus dikenal oleh orang-orang di tempat itu, mereka memberitahukannya ke seluruh daerah itu. Maka semua orang yang sakit dibawa kepada-Nya.
And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;
36 Mereka memohon supaya diperkenankan menjamah jumbai jubah-Nya. Dan semua orang yang menjamah-Nya menjadi sembuh.
And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
