At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,

WEB

and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”

WEB

For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.

WEB

For John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”

WEB

When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

WEB

But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.

WEB

Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.

WEB

She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptizer.”

WEB

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,

WEB

and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.

WEB

His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.

WEB

His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus.

WEB

Now when Jesus 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.

WEB

Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.

WEB

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.”

WEB

But Jesus said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

WEB

They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”

WEB

He said, “Bring them here to me.”

WEB

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.

WEB

They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.

WEB

Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.

WEB

Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

WEB

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.

WEB

But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

WEB

In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.

WEB

When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.

WEB

But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”

WEB

Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”

WEB

He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.

WEB

But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”

WEB

Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”

WEB

When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.

WEB

Those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”

WEB

When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.

WEB

When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;

WEB

and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
