Mattheum 14
1 in illo tempore audiit Herodes tetrarcha famam Iesu
At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Yeshua,
2 et ait pueris suis hic est Iohannes Baptista ipse surrexit a mortuis et ideo virtutes inoperantur in eo
and said to his servants, “This is Yochanan the Immerser. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”
3 Herodes enim tenuit Iohannem et alligavit eum et posuit in carcere propter Herodiadem uxorem fratris sui
For Herod had arrested Yochanan, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
4 dicebat enim illi Iohannes non licet tibi habere eam
For Yochanan said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
5 et volens illum occidere timuit populum quia sicut prophetam eum habebant
When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 die autem natalis Herodis saltavit filia Herodiadis in medio et placuit Herodi
But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
7 unde cum iuramento pollicitus est ei dare quodcumque postulasset ab eo
Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
8 at illa praemonita a matre sua da mihi inquit hic in disco caput Iohannis Baptistae
She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of Yochanan the Immerser.”
9 et contristatus est rex propter iuramentum autem et eos qui pariter recumbebant iussit dari
The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
10 misitque et decollavit Iohannem in carcere
and he sent and beheaded Yochanan in the prison.
11 et adlatum est caput eius in disco et datum est puellae et tulit matri suae
His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.
12 et accedentes discipuli eius tulerunt corpus et sepelierunt illud et venientes nuntiaverunt Iesu
His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Yeshua.
13 quod cum audisset Iesus secessit inde in navicula in locum desertum seorsum et cum audissent turbae secutae sunt eum pedestres de civitatibus
Now when Yeshua heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
14 et exiens vidit turbam multam et misertus est eius et curavit languidos eorum
Yeshua went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15 vespere autem facto accesserunt ad eum discipuli eius dicentes desertus est locus et hora iam praeteriit dimitte turbas ut euntes in castella emant sibi escas
When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”
16 Iesus autem dixit eis non habent necesse ire date illis vos manducare
But Yeshua said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
17 responderunt ei non habemus hic nisi quinque panes et duos pisces
They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”
18 qui ait eis adferte illos mihi huc
He said, “Bring them here to me.”
19 et cum iussisset turbam discumbere supra faenum acceptis quinque panibus et duobus piscibus aspiciens in caelum benedixit et fregit et dedit discipulis panes discipuli autem turbis
He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
20 et manducaverunt omnes et saturati sunt et tulerunt reliquias duodecim cofinos fragmentorum plenos
They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
21 manducantium autem fuit numerus quinque milia virorum exceptis mulieribus et parvulis
Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
22 et statim iussit discipulos ascendere in navicula et praecedere eum trans fretum donec dimitteret turbas
Immediately Yeshua made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
23 et dimissa turba ascendit in montem solus orare vespere autem facto solus erat ibi
After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
24 navicula autem in medio mari iactabatur fluctibus erat enim contrarius ventus
But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25 quarta autem vigilia noctis venit ad eos ambulans supra mare
In the fourth watch of the night, Yeshua came to them, walking on the sea.
26 et videntes eum supra mare ambulantem turbati sunt dicentes quia fantasma est et prae timore clamaverunt
When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.
27 statimque Iesus locutus est eis dicens habete fiduciam ego sum nolite timere
But immediately Yeshua spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
28 respondens autem Petrus dixit Domine si tu es iube me venire ad te super aquas
Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”
29 at ipse ait veni et descendens Petrus de navicula ambulabat super aquam ut veniret ad Iesum
He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Yeshua.
30 videns vero ventum validum timuit et cum coepisset mergi clamavit dicens Domine salvum me fac
But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 et continuo Iesus extendens manum adprehendit eum et ait illi modicae fidei quare dubitasti
Immediately Yeshua stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”
32 et cum ascendissent in naviculam cessavit ventus
When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
33 qui autem in navicula erant venerunt et adoraverunt eum dicentes vere Filius Dei es
Those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”
34 et cum transfretassent venerunt in terram Gennesar
When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
35 et cum cognovissent eum viri loci illius miserunt in universam regionem illam et obtulerunt ei omnes male habentes
When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;
36 et rogabant eum ut vel fimbriam vestimenti eius tangerent et quicumque tetigerunt salvi facti sunt
and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
