1In that there time Herod the tetrarch heard the hearing (news, fame, latin-famam-report) of Jesus, 2And said to his servants, This is John the Baptist: He is risen from the dead and because of this, the [miraculous] powers are working (energized) in Him.

3For Herod having seized hold of John, bound him, and put him in prison on account of Herodias, the wife of Philip, his brother. 4For John had been saying to him, It is not permitted to have her. 5And wanting to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him as a prophet.

6And the birthday celebration of Herod having happened, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst and pleased Herod; 7For which reason he professed (confessed, promised) with an oath to give to her whatever she should ask. 8And having been urged on by her mother, she says, Give me here upon a platter, the head of John the Baptist. 9And the king having been grieved; but on account of the oaths and those reclining with him, he commanded it to be given. 10And he having sent, beheaded John in the prison. 11And his head was brought upon a platter and was given to the girl and she brought it to her mother. 12And his disciples having come, took the dead body (corpse) and buried it; and having come, told it to Jesus.

13And having heard, Jesus withdrew from there by (in) boat unto a solitary (desolate) place by Himself. And having heard of it, the crowds followed Him on foot from the cities. 14And having gone out, He saw a great crowd and was moved with compassion (sympathy, visceral affections) upon them and healed their sick (chronic, persisting illnesses- that not departing).

15And evening having come, the disciples came to Him saying, This is a desolate place and the hour is already passed by. Dismiss then the crowds so that having gone into the villages, they might buy food for themselves. 16And Jesus said to them, They have no need to go away. You give to them to eat. 17And they say to Him, We have not here except five loaves and two fish. 18And He said, Bring them here to Me. 19And having commanded the crowds to sit down upon the grass, having taken the five loaves and the two fish, having looked up into heaven, He spoke a blessing; and having broken, He gave to the disciples the loaves and the disciples to the crowds. 20And all ate and were satisfied; and they took up that being over and above (abounding) of the fragments, twelve hand-baskets full. 21And those eating were about five thousand men, besides (apart from, separate from) women and children.

22And directly He compelled the disciples to enter into the boat and to go before Him unto the other side until that He would have dismissed the crowds. 23And having dismissed the crowds, He went up unto the mountain by Himself to pray. And evening having arrived, He was there alone. 24And the boat was already many stadias (one eighth of a Roman mile) from the land, being tossed by the waves for the wind was contrary. 25And in the fourth watch (between 3-6am) of the night, He went to them, walking upon the sea. 26And the disciples having seen Him walking upon the sea were troubled, saying, It is a ghost (apparition, appearance, phantom, phantasma, latin-fantasma); and in fear they cried out, 27And directly Jesus spoke to them, saying, Take courage (be emboldened, be of good cheer/confidence), It is I, do not fear.

28And answering to Him, Peter said, Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You upon the waters. 29And He said, Come. and having come down away from the boat, Peter walked upon the water, and came to Jesus. 30And seeing the strong wind, he was fearful and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me. 31And Jesus directly having stretched out His hand took hold of him, and says to him, O you of little faith, why did you doubt (waver, vacillate, double stand)? 32And they having gone up into the boat, the wind ceased. 33And those in the boat worshipped Him saying, Truthfully, You are the Son of God!

34And having crossed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret. 35And the men of that there place having recognized Him, sent unto that whole surrounding region and brought to Him all those being badly (sick), 36And entreated Him so that they might only touch the fringe of His outer garment; and as many as touched were thoroughly saved (cured).
