- Kapitel 6 -

(Matthew 13:53–58; Luke 4:16–30)
1
And He went forth from there, and came to His own country, and His disciples follow Him,
2
and Sabbath having come, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing were astonished, saying, “From where [did] this One [hear] these things? And what [is] the wisdom that was given to Him, that also such mighty works are done through His hands?
3
Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? And are His sisters not here with us?” And they were being stumbled at Him.
4
And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his relatives, and in his own house”;
5
and He was not able to do any mighty work there, except having put hands on a few sick, He healed [them];
6
and He wondered because of their unbelief. And He was going around the villages, in a circle, teaching,

The Ministry of the Twelve

(Matthew 10:5–15; Luke 9:1–6)
7
and He calls near the Twelve, and He began to send them forth two by two, and He was giving them power over the unclean spirits,
8
and He commanded them that they may take nothing for the way, except a staff onlyno leather pouch, no bread, no brass in the girdle,
9
but having been shod with sandals, and you may not put on two coats.
10
And He said to them, “Whenever you may enter into a house, remain there until you may depart from there,
11
and as many as may not receive you nor hear you, going out from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony to them; [[truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom or Gomorrah in [the] day of judgment than for that city.”]]
12
And having gone forth they were preaching that [men] might convert,
13
and they were casting out many demons, and they were anointing many sick with oil, and they were healing [them].

The Beheading of John

(Matthew 14:1–12; Luke 9:7–9)
14
And King Herod heard (for His Name became public), and he said, “John the Immerser was raised out of the dead, and because of this the mighty powers are working in him.”
15
Others said, “It is Elijah,” and others said, “It is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.”
16
And Herod having heard, said, “He whom I beheaded—Johnthis is he; he was raised out of the dead.”
17
For Herod himself, having sent forth, laid hold on John, and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, because he married her,
18
for John said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have the wife of your brother”;
19
and Herodias was having a quarrel with him, and was willing to kill him, and was not able,
20
for Herod was fearing John, knowing him [to be] a righteous and holy man, and was keeping watch over him, and having heard him, was doing many things, and hearing him gladly.
21
And a seasonable day having come when Herod on his birthday was making a banquet to his great men, and to the chiefs of thousands, and to the first men of Galilee,
22
and the daughter of that Herodias having come in, and having danced, and having pleased Herod and those dining with him, the king said to the girl, “Ask of me whatever you will, and I will give to you,”
23
and he swore to her, “Whatever you may ask me, I will give to youto the half of my kingdom.”
24
And she, having gone forth, said to her mother, “What will I ask for myself?” And she said, “The head of John the Immerser”;
25
and having come in immediately with haste to the king, she asked, saying, “I will that you may immediately give me the head of John the Immerser on a plate.”
26
And the king, made very sorrowful because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, would not put her away,
27
and immediately the king having sent a guardsman, commanded his head to be brought,
28
and he having gone, beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head on a plate, and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother;
29
and having heard, his disciples came and took up his corpse, and laid it in the tomb.

The Feeding of the Five Thousand

(Matthew 14:13–21; Luke 9:10–17; John 6:1–15)
30
And the apostles are gathered together to Jesus, and they told Him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,
31
and He said to them, “Come yourselves apart to a desolate place, and rest a little,” for those coming and those going were many, and not even to eat had they opportunity,
32
and they went away to a desolate place, in the boat, by themselves.
33
And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognized Him, and they ran there by land from all the cities, and went before them, and came together to Him,
34
and having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, that they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and He began to teach many things.
35
And now the hour being advanced, His disciples having come near to Him, say, “The place is desolate, and the hour is now advanced,
36
let them away, that having gone away into the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy loaves for themselves, for they do not have what they may eat.”
37
And He answering said to them, “You give them to eat,” and they say to Him, “Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denarii worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?”
38
And He says to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see”; and having known, they say, “Five, and two fishes.”
39
And He commanded them to make all recline in companies on the green grass,
40
and they sat down in squares, by hundreds, and by fifties.
41
And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the sky, He blessed, and broke the loaves, and was giving [them] to His disciples, that they may set [them] before them, and the two fishes He divided to all,
42
and they all ate, and were filled,
43
and they took up of broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full, and of the fishes,
44
and those eating of the loaves were about five thousand men.

Jesus Walks on Water

(Matthew 14:22–33; John 6:16–21)
45
And immediately He constrained His disciples to go into the boat, and to go before [Him] to the other side, to Bethsaida, until He may let the multitude away,
46
and having taken leave of them, He went away to the mountain to pray.
47
And evening having come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and He alone on the land;
48
and He saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night He comes to them walking on the sea, and wished to pass by them.
49
And they having seen Him walking on the sea, thought [it] to be an apparition, and cried out,
50
for they all saw Him, and were troubled, and immediately He spoke with them, and says to them, “Take courage! I AM; do not be afraid.”
51
And He went up to them into the boat, and the wind stilled, and greatly out of measure they were amazed in themselves, and were wondering,
52
for they did not understand concerning the loaves, for their heart has been hard.

Jesus Heals at Gennesaret

(Matthew 14:34–36)
53
And having passed over, they came on the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,
54
and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognized Him,
55
they ran around through all that surrounding region, and they began to carry around on the pallets those being ill, where they were hearing that He is,
56
and wherever He was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the marketplaces they were laying the ailing, and were calling on Him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of His garment, and as many as were touching Him were saved.
(Matthew 13:53–58; Luke 4:16–30)
1
He went out from there. He came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
2
When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?
3
Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judah, and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” So they were offended at him.
4
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5
He could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6
He marveled because of their unbelief. He went around the villages teaching.

The Ministry of the Twelve

(Matthew 10:5–15; Luke 9:1–6)
7
He called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
8
He commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only: no bread, no wallet, no money in their purse,
9
but to wear sandals, and not put on two tunics.
10
He said to them, “Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.
11
Whoever will not receive you nor hear you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them. Assuredly, I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”
12
They went out and preached that people should repent.
13
They cast out many demons, and anointed many with oil who were sick and healed them.

The Beheading of John

(Matthew 14:1–12; Luke 9:7–9)
14
King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.”
15
But others said, “He is Elijah.” Others said, “He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.”
16
But Herod, when he heard this, said, “This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.”
17
For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, for he had married her.
18
For John had said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19
Herodias set herself against him and desired to kill him, but she couldn’t,
20
for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he did many things, and he heard him gladly.
21
Then a convenient day came when Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.
22
When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, “Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.”
23
He swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
24
She went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?” She said, “The head of John the Baptizer.”
25
She came in immediately with haste to the king and requested, “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.”
26
The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths and of his dinner guests, he didn’t wish to refuse her.
27
Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard and commanded to bring John’s head; and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28
and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.
29
When his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse and laid it in a tomb.

The Feeding of the Five Thousand

(Matthew 14:13–21; Luke 9:10–17; John 6:1–15)
30
The apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
31
He said to them, “Come away into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32
They went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
33
They (a) saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to him.
34
Jesus came out, saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35
When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him and said, “This place is deserted, and it is late in the day.
36
Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.”
37
But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii (b) worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go see.” When they knew, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39
He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
40
They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
41
He took the five loaves and the two fish; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his disciples to set before them, and he divided the two fish among them all.
42
They all ate and were filled.
43
They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
44
Those who ate the loaves were (c) five thousand men.

Jesus Walks on Water

(Matthew 14:22–33; John 6:16–21)
45
Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself sent the multitude away.
46
After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.
47
When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48
Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; (d) and he would have passed by them,
49
but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;
50
for they all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them and said to them, “Cheer up! It is I! (e) Don’t be afraid.”
51
He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed among themselves, and marveled;
52
for they hadn’t understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.

Jesus Heals at Gennesaret

(Matthew 14:34–36)
53
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore.
54
When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,
55
and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was.
56
Wherever he enteredinto villages, or into cities, or into the country—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe (f) of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.
