1那時，聽見耶穌的名聲，At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus
2就對臣僕說：「這是從死裡復活，所以這些異能從他裡面發出來。」and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”
3起先，希律為他兄弟腓力的妻子的緣故，把約翰拿住，鎖在監裡。Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,
4因為約翰曾對他說：「你娶這婦人是的。」because John had been telling him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
5希律就想要殺他，只是怕百姓，因為他們以約翰為先知。Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.
6到了希律的生日，希羅底的女兒在眾人面前跳舞，使希律歡喜。On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod
7希律就起誓，應許隨她所求的給她。so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.
8女兒，就說：「請把施洗約翰的頭放在盤子裡，拿來給我。」Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”
9王便憂愁，但因他所起的誓，又因同席的人，就吩咐給她；The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted
10於是打發人去，在監裡斬了約翰，and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.
11把頭放在盤子裡，拿來給了女子；女子拿去給她母親。John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.
12約翰的門徒來，把屍首領去埋葬了，就去告訴耶穌。Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.
13耶穌聽見了，就上船從那裡獨自退到裡去。眾人聽見，就從各城裡步行跟隨他。When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.
14耶穌出來，見有許多的人，就他們，治好了他們的病人。When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15天將晚的時候，門徒進前來，說：「這是野地，時候已經過了，請叫眾人散開，他們好往村子裡去，自己買吃的。」When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”
16耶穌說：「不用他們去，你們給他們吃吧！」“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”
17門徒說：「我們這裡只有五個餅，兩條魚。」“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.
18耶穌說：「拿過來給我。」“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.
19於是吩咐眾人坐在草地上，就拿著這五個餅，兩條魚，望著天，餅，遞給門徒，門徒又遞給眾人。And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
20他們都吃，並且吃飽了；把剩下的收拾起來，裝滿了十二個籃子。They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
21吃的人，除了婦女孩子，約有。About five thousand men were fed, besides women and children.
22耶穌隨即催門徒上船，先渡到那邊去，等他叫眾人散開。Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.
23散了眾人以後，他就獨自上山去禱告。到了晚上，只有他一人在那裡。After He had dismissed them, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,
24那時船在海中，因風不順，被浪。but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.
25夜裡，耶穌在海面上走，往門徒那裡去。During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.
26門徒看見他在海面上走，就驚慌了，說：「是個！」便害怕，喊叫起來。When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.
27耶穌連忙對他們說：「你們放心，是我，不要怕！」But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”
28說：「主，如果是你，請叫我從水面上走到你那裡去。」“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”
29耶穌說：「你來吧。」彼得就從船上下去，在水面上走，要到耶穌那裡去；“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.
30只因見風甚大，就害怕，將要沉下去，便喊著說：「主啊，救我！」But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”
31耶穌趕緊伸手拉住他，說：「你這的人哪，為甚麼疑惑呢？」Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”
32他們上了船，風就住了。And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.
33在船上的人都拜他，說：「你真是 神的兒子了。」Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”
34他們過了海，來到地方。When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.
35那裡的人一認出是耶穌，就打發人到周圍地方去，把所有的病人帶到他那裡，And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him
36只求耶穌准他們摸他的衣裳子；摸著的人就都好了。and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
