1At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,studyinterlinear
2And 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.studyinterlinear
3For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.studyinterlinear
4For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.studyinterlinear
5And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.studyinterlinear
6But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.studyinterlinear
7Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.studyinterlinear
8And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist’s head in a charger.studyinterlinear
9And 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.studyinterlinear
10And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.studyinterlinear
11And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.studyinterlinear
12And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.studyinterlinear
13When 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.studyinterlinear
14And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.studyinterlinear
15And 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.studyinterlinear
16But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.studyinterlinear
17And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.studyinterlinear
18He said, Bring them hither to me.studyinterlinear
19And 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.studyinterlinear
20And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.studyinterlinear
21And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.studyinterlinear
22And 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.studyinterlinear
23And 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.studyinterlinear
24But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.studyinterlinear
25And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.studyinterlinear
26And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.studyinterlinear
27But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.studyinterlinear
28And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.studyinterlinear
29And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.studyinterlinear
30But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.studyinterlinear
31And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?studyinterlinear
32And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.studyinterlinear
33Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.studyinterlinear
34And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.studyinterlinear
35And 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;studyinterlinear
36And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.studyinterlinear
