1 I vyšel odtud a přišel do vlasti své, a šli za ním učedlníci jeho.
2 A když bylo v sobotu, počal učiti v škole, a mnozí slyšíce, divili se, řkouce: Odkud tento má tyto věci? A jaká jest to moudrost, kteráž jest jemu dána, že i takové moci dějí se skrze ruce jeho?
3 Zdaliž tento není tesař, syn Marie, bratr Jakubův a Jozesův a Judův a Šimonův? A zdaliž nejsou i sestry jeho zde u nás? I zhoršili se na něm.
4 I řekl jim Ježíš: Není prorok beze cti, jediné v vlasti své a v rodině své a v domu svém.
5 I nemohl tu znamení žádného učiniti, jediné málo nemocných, vzkládaje na ně ruce, uzdravil.
6 I podivil se jejich nevěře, a obcházel vůkol po městečkách, uče.
7 A svolav dvanácte, počal je posílati po dvou a dvou, a dal jim moc nad duchy nečistými.
8 A přikázal jim, aby ničehož nebrali na cestu, jediné toliko hůl, ani mošny, ani chleba, ani na pase peněz,
9 Ale jen obuté míti nohy v střevíce, a aby neobláčeli dvou sukní.
10 A pravil jim: Kdežkoli vešli byste do domu, tu ostaňte, dokudž nevyšli byste odtud.
11 A kdož by koli vás nepřijali, ani vás slyšeli, vyjdouce odtud, vyrazte prach z noh vašich na svědectví jim. Amen pravím vám: Lehčeji bude Sodomským a Gomorským v den soudný nežli městu tomu.
12 Tedy oni vyšedše, kázali, aby pokání činili.
13 A ďábelství mnohá vymítali, a mazali olejem mnohé nemocné, a uzdravovali je.
14 A uslyšev o tom Herodes král, (neb zjevné učiněno bylo jméno jeho,) i pravil, že Jan Křtitel vstal z mrtvých, a protož se dějí divové skrze něho.
15 Jiní pak pravili, že jest Eliáš; a jiní pravili, že jest prorok, aneb jako jeden z proroků.
16 To uslyšev Herodes, řekl: Kteréhož jsem já sťal, Jana, tenť jest. Ontě z mrtvých vstal.
17 Ten zajisté Herodes byl poslal a jal Jana a vsadil jej do žaláře pro Herodiadu manželku Filipa bratra svého, že ji byl za manželku pojal.
18 Nebo pravil Jan Herodesovi: Neslušíť tobě míti manželky bratra svého.
19 Herodias pak lest skládala proti němu, a chtěla jej o hrdlo připraviti, ale nemohla.
20 Nebo Herodes ostýchal se Jana, věda jej býti muže spravedlivého a svatého. I šetřil ho, a slýchaje jej, mnoho i činil, a rád ho poslouchal.
21 A když přišel den příhodný, že Herodes, pamatuje den svého narození, učinil večeři knížatům svým a hejtmanům a předním mužům z Galilee,
22 A dcera té Herodiady tam vešla a tancovala, zalíbilo se Herodesovi i spoluhodovníkům, i řekl král děvečce: Pros mne, zač chceš, a dámť.
23 I přisáhl jí: Že začkoli prositi budeš, dám tobě, by pak bylo až do polovice království mého.
24 Ona pak vyšedši, řekla mateři své: Zač budu prositi? A ona řekla: Za hlavu Jana Křtitele.
25 A všedši hned s chvátáním k králi, prosila ho, řkuci: Chci, abys mi dal hned na míse hlavu Jana Křtitele.
26 Král pak zarmoutiv se velmi, pro přísahu a pro spoluhodovníky nechtěl jí oslyšeti.
27 I poslav hned kata, rozkázal přinésti hlavu Janovu.
28 A on odšed, sťal jej v žaláři, a přinesl hlavu jeho na míse, a dal ji děvečce, a děvečka dala mateři své.
29 To uslyšavše učedlníci jeho, přišli a vzali tělo jeho, a pochovali je v hrobě.
30 Tedy sšedše se apoštolé k Ježíšovi, zvěstovali jemu všecko, i to, co činili, i co učili.
31 I řekl jim: Pojďte vy sami obzvláštně na pusté místo, a odpočiňte maličko. Nebo bylo množství těch, kteříž přicházeli a odcházeli, takže jsou ani k jídlu chvíle neměli.
32 I plavili se až na pusté místo soukromí.
33 A vidouce je zástupové, že jdou pryč, poznali jej mnozí. I sběhli se tam ze všech měst pěšky, a předešli je, a shromáždili se k němu.
34 Tedy vyšed Ježíš, uzřel zástup mnohý, a slitovalo mu se jich, že byli jako ovce, nemající pastýře. I počal je učiti mnohým věcem.
35 A když se již prodlilo, přistoupivše k němu učedlníci jeho, řekli: Pustéť jest toto místo, a již se prodlilo,
36 Rozpusť je, ať jdouce do okolních vesnic a městeček, nakoupí sobě chleba; nebo nemají, co by jedli.
37 On pak odpověděv, řekl jim: Dejte vy jim jísti. I řkou jemu: Co tedy, jdouce koupíme za dvě stě grošů chleba, a dáme jim jísti?
38 I dí jim: Kolik chlebů máte? Jděte a zvězte. A když zvěděli, řekli: Pět, a dvě rybě.
39 I rozkázal jim, aby se kázali posaditi všechněm po houfích na zelené trávě.
40 I usadili se rozdílně, místy po stu a místy po padesáti.
41 A vzav těch pět chlebů a ty dvě rybě, popatřiv do nebe, dobrořečil, i lámal chleby, a dal učedlníkům svým, aby kladli před ně. A dvě rybě rozdělil též mezi všecky.
42 I jedli všickni, a nasyceni jsou.
43 Potom sebrali drobtů dvanácte košů plných, i z ryb.
44 A bylo těch, kteříž jedli ty chleby, okolo pět tisíců mužů.
45 A hned přinutil učedlníky své vstoupiti na lodí, aby jej předešli přes moře do Betsaidy, až by on rozpustil zástup.
46 A rozpustiv je, šel na horu, aby se modlil.
47 A když bylo večer, byla lodí uprostřed moře, a on sám na zemi.
48 A viděl je, a oni se s těžkostí plavili; (nebo byl vítr odporný jim.) A při čtvrtém bdění nočním přišel k nim, chodě po moři, a chtěl je pominouti.
49 Oni pak uzřevše jej, an chodí po moři, domnívali se, že by obluda byla, i zkřikli.
50 (Nebo jej všickni viděli, a zstrašili se.) A hned promluvil k nim a řekl jim: Doufejtež, jáť jsem, nebojte se.
51 I vstoupil k nim na lodí, a utišil se vítr; a oni náramně sami v sobě se děsili a divili.
52 Nebo nerozuměli byli, co se stalo při chlebích; bylo zajisté srdce jejich zhrublo.
53 A když se přeplavili, přišli do země Genezaretské, a tu lodí přistavili.
54 A když vyšli z lodí, hned jej poznali.
55 A běhajíce po vší krajině té, počali na ložcích k němu nositi nemocné, kdežkoli zvěděli o něm, že by byl.
56 A kamžkoli vcházel do městeček neb do měst nebo do vsí, na ulicech kladli neduživé, a prosili ho, aby se aspoň podolka roucha jeho dotkli. A kolikož jich koli se jeho dotkli, uzdraveni byli.
1 And he went forth thence, and came to his own country, and his disciples do follow him,
2 and sabbath having come, he began in the synagogue to teach, and many hearing were astonished, saying, `Whence hath this one these things? and what the wisdom that was given to him, that also such mighty works through his hands are done?
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? and are not his sisters 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 kindred, and in his own house;`
5 and he was not able there any mighty work to do, except on a few infirm people having put hands he did heal [them];
6 and he wondered because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages, in a circle, teaching,
7 and he doth call 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 only -- no scrip, no bread, no brass in the girdle,
9 but having been shod with sandals, and ye may not put on two coats.
10 And he said to them, `Whenever ye may enter into a house, there remain till ye may depart thence,
11 and as many as may not receive you, nor hear you, going out thence, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony to them; verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom or Gomorrah in a day of judgment than for that city.`
12 And having gone forth they were preaching that [men] might reform,
13 and many demons they were casting out, and they were anointing with oil many infirm, and they were healing [them].
14 And the king Herod heard, (for his name became public,) and he said -- `John the Baptist out of the dead was raised, 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 did behead -- John -- this is he; he was raised out of the dead.`
17 For Herod himself, having sent forth, did lay hold on John, and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he married her,
18 for John said to Herod -- `It is not lawful to thee to have the wife of thy 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 a man righteous and holy, 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 supper 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 reclining (at meat) with him, the king said to the damsel, `Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give to thee,`
23 and he sware to her -- `Whatever thou mayest ask me, I will give to thee -- unto the half of my kingdom.`
24 And she, having gone forth, said to her mother, `What shall I ask for myself?` and she said, `The head of John the Baptist;`
25 and having come in immediately with haste unto the king, she asked, saying, `I will that thou mayest give me presently, upon a plate, the head of John the Baptist.`
26 And the king -- made very sorrowful -- because of the oaths and of those reclining (at meat) with him, would not put her away,
27 and immediately the king having sent a guardsman, did command his head to be brought,
28 and he having gone, beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a plate, and did give it to the damsel, and the damsel did give it to her mother;
29 and having heard, his disciples came and took up his corpse, and laid it in the tomb.
30 And the apostles are gathered together unto 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 ye yourselves apart to a desert 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 desert place, in the boat, by themselves.
33 And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognised him, and by land from all the cities they ran thither, 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 to the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy to themselves loaves, for what they may eat they have not.`
37 And he answering said to them, `Give ye them to eat,` and they say to him, `Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denaries` worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?`
38 And he saith to them, `How many loaves have ye? go and see;` and having known, they say, `Five, and two fishes.`
39 And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon 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 heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and was giving to his disciples, that they may set before them, and the two fishes divided he to all,
42 and they did all eat, 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.
45 And immediately he constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before to the other side, unto Bethsaida, till 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 upon 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 doth come 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 spake with them, and saith to them, `Take courage, I am [he], be not afraid.`
51 And he went up unto them to the boat, and the wind lulled, and greatly out of measure were they amazed in themselves, and were wondering,
52 for they understood not concerning the loaves, for their heart hath been hard.
53 And having passed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,
54 and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognised him,
55 having run about through all that region round about, they began upon the couches to carry about those ill, where they were hearing that he is,
56 and wherever he was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the market-places they were laying the infirm, and were calling upon him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of his garment, and as many as were touching him were saved.
