Matthew 14:13-27

131NowG1161 when JesusG2424 heardG191 about John, He withdrewG402 fromG1564 thereG1564 in a boatG4143 to a secludedG2048 placeG5117 by HimselfG2398; and when the 2peopleG3793 heardG191 about this, they followedG190 Him on footG3979 from the citiesG4172. 14When He cameG1831 3ashoreG1831, He 4sawG3708 a largeG4183 crowdG3793, and feltG4697 compassionG4697 for them and 5healedG2323 their sickG732.

15Now when it was eveningG3798, the disciplesG3101 cameG4334 to Him and saidG3004, “ThisG3588 placeG5117 is secludedG2048 and the hourG5610 is alreadyG2235 pastG3928 to eat; sendG630 the crowdsG3793 awayG630, soG2443 thatG2443 they may goG565 into the villagesG2968 and buyG59 foodG1033 for themselvesG1438.” 16But JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “They do not needG5532 to goG565; you giveG1325 them something to eatG2068!” 17They saidG3004 to Him, “We haveG2192 nothingG3756 hereG5602 exceptG1487G3361 6fiveG4002 loavesG740 and twoG1417 fishG2486.” 18And He saidG3004, “BringG5342 them hereG5602 to Me.” 19And orderingG2753 the crowdsG3793 to 7sitG347 downG347 on the grassG5528, He tookG2983 the fiveG4002 loavesG740 and the twoG1417 fishG2486, and lookedG308 upG308 towardG1519 heavenG3772. He 8blessedG2127 the food and breakingG2806 the loavesG740, He gaveG1325 them to the disciplesG3101, and the disciplesG3101 gave them to the crowdsG3793. 20And they allG3956 ateG2068 and were satisfiedG5526, and they pickedG142 upG142 whatG3588 was leftG4052 overG4052 of the brokenG2801 piecesG2801: twelveG1427 fullG4134 9basketsG2894. 21There were aboutG5616 fiveG4000 thousandG4000 menG435 who ateG2068, besidesG5565 womenG1135 and childrenG3813.

2210ImmediatelyG2112 afterward He compelledG315 the disciplesG3101 to getG1684 into the boatG4143 and to goG4254 aheadG4254 of Him to the otherG4008 sideG4008, whileG2193 He sentG630 the crowdsG3793 awayG630. 23After He had sentG630 the crowdsG3793 awayG630, 11He wentG305 upG305 on the mountainG3735 by HimselfG2398 to prayG4336; and when it was eveningG3798, He was thereG1563 aloneG3441. 24But the boatG4143 was alreadyG2235 12a longG4183 distanceG4712 from the landG1093, 13batteredG928 by the wavesG2949; for the windG417 was 1415contraryG1727. 25And in 16the 17fourthG5067 watchG5438 of the nightG3571 He cameG2064 to them, walkingG4043 on the seaG2281. 26When the disciplesG3101 sawG3708 Him walkingG4043 on the seaG2281, they were terrifiedG5015, and saidG3004, “It is 18a ghostG5326!” And they criedG2896 outG2896 19in fearG5401. 27But immediatelyG2117 JesusG2424 spokeG2980 to them, sayingG3004, “20TakeG2293 courageG2293, 21it is I; 22do not beG5399 afraidG5399.”
