Matthew 14:13-36

13WhenG2532 JesusG3588G2424 heardG191 of it, he departedG402 thenceG1564 byG1722 shipG4143 intoG1519 a desertG2048 placeG5117 apartG2398: and whenG2532 the peopleG3588G3793 had heardG191 thereof, they followedG190 himG846 on footG3979 out ofG575 the citiesG3588G4172. 14AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 went forthG1831, and sawG3708 a greatG4183 multitudeG3793, andG2532 was moved with compassionG4697 towardG1909 themG846, andG2532 he healedG2323 theirG846 sickG732.

15AndG1161 when it wasG1096 eveningG3798, hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 cameG4334 to himG846, sayingG3004, This isG1510 a desertG2048 placeG3588G5117, andG2532 the timeG3588G5610 isG3928 nowG2235 pastG3928; sendG630 the multitudeG3588G3793 awayG630, thatG2443 they mayG59 goG565 intoG1519 the villagesG3588G2968, and buyG59 themselvesG1438 victualsG1033. 16ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, TheyG2192G565 needG5532 notG3756 departG2192G565; giveG1325 yeG4771 themG846 to eatG5315. 17AndG1161 they sayG3004 unto himG846, We haveG2192 hereG5602 butG1487 fiveG4002 loavesG740, andG2532 twoG1417 fishesG2486. 18He saidG3004, BringG5342 themG846 hitherG5602 to meG1473. 19AndG2532 he commandedG2753 the multitudeG3588G3793 to sit downG347 onG1909 the grassG3588G5528, andG2532 tookG2983 theG740 fiveG4002 loavesG740, andG2532 theG2486 twoG1417 fishesG2486, and looking upG308 toG1519 heavenG3588G3772, he blessedG2127, andG2532 brakeG2806, and gaveG1325 the loavesG3588G740 toG3588G3101 his disciplesG3588G3101, andG1161 the disciplesG3101 to the multitudeG3588G3793. 20AndG2532 they didG5315 allG3956 eatG5315, andG2532 were filledG5526: andG2532 they took upG142 of the fragmentsG3588G2801 that remainedG4052 twelveG1427 basketsG2894 fullG4134. 21AndG1161 they that had eatenG2068 wereG1510 aboutG5616 five thousandG4000 menG435, besideG5565 womenG1135 andG2532 childrenG3813.

22AndG2532 straightwayG2112 JesusG3588G2424 constrainedG315 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 to getG1684 intoG1519 a shipG3588G4143, andG2532 to go beforeG4254 himG846 untoG1519 the other sideG4008, whileG2193 he sentG630 the multitudesG3588G3793 awayG630. 23AndG2532 when he had sentG630 the multitudesG3588G3793 awayG630, he went upG305 intoG1519 a mountainG3588G3735 apartG2398 to prayG4336: and whenG1161 the eveningG3798 was comeG1096, he wasG1510 thereG1563 aloneG3441. 24ButG1161 the shipG4143 wasG1510 nowG2235 in the midstG3319 of the seaG3588G2281, tossedG928 withG5259 wavesG3588G2949: forG1063 the windG3588G417 wasG1510 contraryG1727. 25AndG1161 in the fourthG5067 watchG5438 of the nightG3588G3571 JesusG3588G2424 wentG565 untoG4314 themG846, walkingG4043 onG1909 the seaG3588G2281. 26And whenG2532 the disciplesG3588G3101 sawG3708 himG846 walkingG4043 onG1909 the seaG3588G2281, they were troubledG5015, sayingG3004, It isG1510 a spiritG5326; andG2532 they cried outG2896 forG575 fearG3588G5401. 27ButG1161 straightwayG2112 JesusG3588G2424 spakeG2980 unto themG846, sayingG3004, Be of good cheerG2293; it isG1510 IG1473; beG5399 notG3361 afraidG5399. 28AndG1161 PeterG3588G4074 answeredG611 himG846 and saidG3004, LordG2962, ifG1487 it beG1510 thouG4771, bidG2753 meG1473 comeG2064 untoG4314 theeG4771 onG1909 the waterG3588G5204. 29AndG1161 he saidG3004, ComeG2064. And whenG2532 PeterG3588G4074 was come downG2597 outG575 of the shipG3588G4143, he walkedG4043 onG1909 the waterG3588G5204, to goG2064 toG4314 JesusG3588G2424. 30ButG1161 when he sawG991 the windG3588G417 boisterousG2478, he was afraidG5399; andG2532 beginningG756 to sinkG2670, he criedG2896, sayingG3004, LordG2962, saveG4982 meG1473. 31AndG1161 immediatelyG2112 JesusG3588G2424 stretched forthG1614 his handG3588G5495, and caughtG1949 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, O thou of little faithG3640, whereforeG5101 didst thou doubtG1365? 32AndG2532 when theyG846 were comeG1684 intoG1519 the shipG3588G4143, the windG3588G417 ceasedG2869. 33ThenG1161 they that wereG3588 inG1722 the shipG3588G4143 cameG2064 and worshippedG4352 himG846, sayingG3004, Of a truthG230 thou artG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.

34AndG2532 when they were gone overG1276, they cameG2064 intoG1519 the landG3588G1093 of GennesaretG1082. 35And whenG2532 the menG3588G435 of thatG1565 placeG3588G5117 had knowledge ofG1921 himG846, they sent outG649 intoG1519 allG3650 thatG1565 country round aboutG4066, andG2532 broughtG4374 unto himG846 allG3956 that wereG2192 diseasedG2560; 36AndG2532 besoughtG3870 himG846 thatG2443 they mightG680 onlyG3440 touchG680 the hemG3588G2899 of hisG846 garmentG3588G2440: andG2532 as many asG3745 touchedG680 were made perfectly wholeG1295.
