40_MAT_14_01 at that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus ,
40_MAT_14_02 And said unto his servants , this Is John the Baptist ; he Is risen from the dead ; And therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him .
40_MAT_14_03 for Herod had laid hold on John , And bound him , And put [ him ] in prison for Herodias' sake , his brother Philip's wife .
40_MAT_14_04 for John said unto him , it Is not lawful for thee to have her .
40_MAT_14_05 And when he would have put him to death , he feared the multitude , because they counted him as A prophet .
40_MAT_14_06 but when Herod's birthday was kept , the daughter of Herodias danced before them , And pleased Herod .
40_MAT_14_07 whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask .
40_MAT_14_08 And she , being before instructed of her mother , said , give me here John Baptist's head in A charger .
40_MAT_14_09 And the king was sorry : Nevertheless for the oath's sake , And them which sat with him at meat , he commanded [ it ] to be given [ her ] .
40_MAT_14_10 And he sent , And beheaded John in the prison .
40_MAT_14_11 And his head was brought in A charger , And given to the damsel : And she brought [ it ] to her mother .
40_MAT_14_12 And his disciples came , And took up the body , And buried it , And went And told Jesus .
40_MAT_14_13 when Jesus heard [ of it ] , he departed thence by ship into A desert place apart : And when the people had heard [ thereof ] , they followed him on foot out of the cities .
40_MAT_14_14 And Jesus went forth , And saw A great multitude , And was moved with compassion toward them , And he healed their sick .
40_MAT_14_15 And when it was evening , his disciples came to him , saying , this Is A desert place , And the time Is now past ; send the multitude away , that they may go into the villages , And buy themselves victuals .
40_MAT_14_16 but Jesus said unto them , they need not Depart ; give ye them to eat .
40_MAT_14_17 And they say unto him , we have here but five loaves , And two fishes .
40_MAT_14_18 he said , bring them hither to me .
40_MAT_14_19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass , And took the five loaves , And the two fishes , And looking up to heaven , he blessed , And brake , And gave the loaves to [ his ] disciples , And the disciples to the multitude .
40_MAT_14_20 And they did all eat , And were filled : And they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full .
40_MAT_14_21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men , beside women And children .
40_MAT_14_22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into A ship , And to go before him unto the other side , while he sent the multitudes away .
40_MAT_14_23 And when he had sent the multitudes away , he went up into A mountain apart to pray : And when the evening was come , he was there alone .
40_MAT_14_24 but the ship was now in the midst of the sea , tossed with waves : for the wind was contrary .
40_MAT_14_25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them , walking on the sea .
40_MAT_14_26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea , they were troubled , saying , it Is A spirit ; And they cried out for Fear .
40_MAT_14_27 but straightway Jesus spake unto them , saying , be of good cheer ; it Is I ; be not afraid .
40_MAT_14_28 And Peter answered him And said , LORD , if it be thou , Bid me come unto thee on the water .
40_MAT_14_29 And he said , come . And when Peter was come down out of the ship , he walked on the water , to go to Jesus .
40_MAT_14_30 but when he saw the wind boisterous , he was afraid ; And beginning to sink , he cried , saying , LORD , save me .
40_MAT_14_31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth [ his ] hand , And caught him , And said unto him , O thou of little faith , Wherefore didst thou doubt ?
40_MAT_14_32 And when they were come into the ship , the wind ceased .
40_MAT_14_33 Then they that were in the ship came And worshipped him , saying , of A truth thou art the son of God .
40_MAT_14_34 And when they were gone over , they came into the land of Gennesaret .
40_MAT_14_35 And when the men of that place had knowledge of him , they sent out into all that country round about , And brought unto him all that were diseased ;
40_MAT_14_36 And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment : And as Many as touched were made perfectly whole .
