Matthew 14:1-21

1At thatG1565 seasonG2540 HerodG2264 theG3588 tetrarch heardG191 theG3588 reportG189 concerning JesusG2424,

2andG2532 saidG3004 unto hisG846 servantsG3816, ThisG3778 isG1510 JohnG2491 theG3588 BaptistG910; heG2532 isG1510 risenG1453 fromG575 theG3588 deadG3498; andG2532 thereforeG1223 doG1510 theseG3778 powersG1411 workG1754 inG1722 himG846.

3ForG1063 HerodG2264 had laidG659 holdG2902 onG1722 JohnG2491, andG2532 boundG1210 himG846, andG2532 putG659 himG846 inG1722 prisonG5438 forG1063 theG3588 sakeG1223 ofG1223 HerodiasG2266, hisG846 brotherG80 Philip’sG5376 wifeG1135.

4ForG1063 JohnG2491 saidG3004 unto himG846, ItG846 is notG3756 lawfulG1832 forG1063 thee toG3004 have herG846.

5AndG2532 whenG5613 heG2532 wouldG846 have putG615 himG846 toG2309 deathG615, heG2532 fearedG5399 theG3588 multitudeG3793, becauseG3754 theyG846 counted himG846 asG5613 a prophetG4396.

6ButG1161 whenG2532 Herod’sG2264 birthdayG1077 cameG1096, theG3588 daughterG2364 ofG1722 HerodiasG2266 dancedG3738 inG1722 theG3588 midstG3319, andG2532 pleasedG700 HerodG2264.

7Whereupon heG846 promisedG3670 withG3326 anG1325 oathG3727 toG1325 giveG1325 herG846 whatsoever sheG846 should askG154.

8AndG1161 sheG846, being putG1325 forward byG5259 herG846 motherG3384, saith, GiveG1325 meG1325 hereG5602 inG1909 a charger theG3588 headG2776 ofG1909 JohnG2491 theG3588 BaptistG910.

9AndG2532 theG3588 kingG935 was grievedG3076; butG2532 forG1223 theG3588 sakeG1223 ofG1223 hisG1223 oathsG3727, andG2532 ofG1223 themG1325 whichG3588 sat at meatG3588 withG1223 himG1325, heG2532 commandedG2753 itG1223 toG2532 beG2532 givenG1325;

10andG2532 heG2532 sentG3992, andG2532 beheadedG607 JohnG2491 inG1722 theG3588 prisonG5438.

11AndG2532 hisG846 headG2776 was broughtG5342 inG1909 a charger, andG2532 givenG1325 toG1909 theG3588 damsel: andG2532 sheG846 broughtG5342 itG846 toG1909 herG846 motherG3384.

12AndG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 cameG2064, andG2532 tookG142 upG142 theG3588 corpseG4430, andG2532 buriedG2290 himG846; andG2532 theyG846 wentG2064 andG2532 toldG518 JesusG2424.

13NowG1161 whenG2532 JesusG2424 heardG191 itG846, heG2532 withdrewG402 fromG575 thence inG1722 a boatG4143, toG1519 a desertG2048 placeG5117 apart: andG2532 whenG2532 theG3588 multitudesG3793 heardG191 thereof, theyG846 followedG190 himG846 onG1722 foot fromG575 theG3588 citiesG4172.

14AndG2532 heG2532 cameG1831 forthG1831, andG2532 sawG3708 a greatG4183 multitudeG3793, andG2532 heG2532 had compassionG4697 onG1909 themG846, andG2532 healedG2323 theirG846 sickG732.

15AndG2532 whenG2532 evenG2532 wasG1510 comeG1096, theG3588 disciplesG3101 cameG4334 toG1519 himG846, sayingG3004, TheG3588 placeG5117 isG1510 desertG2048, andG2532 theG3588 timeG5610 isG1510 alreadyG2235 pastG565; sendG630 theG3588 multitudesG3793 awayG565, thatG2443 theyG846 mayG2532 goG565 intoG1519 theG3588 villagesG2968, andG2532 buyG59 themselvesG1438 foodG1033.

16ButG1161 JesusG2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, TheyG846 have noG3756 needG5532 toG3004 goG565 awayG565; giveG1325 ye themG846 toG3004 eatG2068.

17AndG2532 theyG846 sayG3004 unto himG846, WeG1487 have hereG5602 butG1161 fiveG4002 loavesG740, andG2532 twoG1417 fishes.

18AndG1161 heG846 saidG3004, BringG5342 themG846 hither toG3004 meG3004.

19AndG2532 heG2532 commandedG2753 theG3588 multitudesG3793 toG1519 sitG347 downG347 onG1909 theG3588 grassG5528; andG2532 heG2532 tookG2983 theG3588 fiveG4002 loavesG740, andG2532 theG3588 twoG1417 fishes, andG2532 lookingG308 upG1519 toG1519 heavenG3772, heG2532 blessedG2127, andG2532 brake andG2532 gaveG1325 theG3588 loavesG740 toG1519 theG3588 disciplesG3101, andG2532 theG3588 disciplesG3101 toG1519 theG3588 multitudesG3793.

20AndG2532 theyG2532 did allG3956 eatG2068, andG2532 were filledG5526: andG2532 theyG2532 tookG142 upG142 thatG3956 whichG3588 remained overG4052 ofG3956 theG3956 brokenG2801 piecesG2801, twelveG1427 basketsG2894 fullG4134.

21AndG2532 theyG2532 thatG1161 didG1510 eatG2068 wereG1510 aboutG5616 fiveG4000 thousandG4000 menG435, beside womenG1135 anG1510 childrenG3813.
