2. 2BYZκαι γενομενου σαββατου ηρξατο εν τη συναγωγη διδασκειν και πολλοι ακουοντεσ εξεπλησσοντο λεγοντεσ ποθεν τουτω ταυτα και τισ η σοφια η δοθεισα αυτω και δυναμεισ τοιαυται δια των χειρων αυτου γινονταιBSBBSB: When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?
3. 3BYZουχ ουτοσ εστιν ο τεκτων ο υιοσ μαριασ αδελφοσ δε ιακωβου και ιωση και ιουδα και σιμωνοσ και ουκ εισιν αι αδελφαι αυτου ωδε προσ ημασ και εσκανδαλιζοντο εν αυτωBSBBSB: Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon?

5. 5BYZκαι ουκ ηδυνατο εκει ουδεμιαν δυναμιν ποιησαι ει μη ολιγοισ αρρωστοισ επιθεισ τασ χειρασ εθεραπευσενBSBBSB: So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

12. 12BYZκαι εξελθοντεσ εκηρυσσον ινα μετανοησωσινBSBBSB: So they set out and preached that the people should repent.
13. 13BYZκαι δαιμονια πολλα εξεβαλλον και ηλειφον ελαιω πολλουσ αρρωστουσ και εθεραπευονBSBBSB: They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.
14. 14BYZκαι ηκουσεν ο βασιλευσ ηρωδησ φανερον γαρ εγενετο το ονομα αυτου και ελεγεν οτι ιωαννησ ο βαπτιζων εκ νεκρων ηγερθη και δια τουτο ενεργουσιν αι δυναμεισ εν αυτωBSBBSB: Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead!

19. 19BYZη δε ηρωδιασ ενειχεν αυτω και ηθελεν αυτον αποκτειναι και ουκ ηδυνατοBSBBSB: So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,
20. 20BYZο γαρ ηρωδησ εφοβειτο τον ιωαννην ειδωσ αυτον ανδρα δικαιον και αγιον και συνετηρει αυτον και ακουσασ αυτου πολλα εποιει και ηδεωσ αυτου ηκουενBSBBSB: because Herod feared John and protected him, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man. When he heard John’s words, he was greatly perplexed; yet he listened to him gladly.
21. 21BYZκαι γενομενησ ημερασ ευκαιρου οτε ηρωδησ τοισ γενεσιοισ αυτου δειπνον εποιει τοισ μεγιστασιν αυτου και τοισ χιλιαρχοισ και τοισ πρωτοισ τησ γαλιλαιασBSBBSB: On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.
22. 22BYZκαι εισελθουσησ τησ θυγατροσ αυτησ τησ ηρωδιαδοσ και ορχησαμενησ και αρεσασησ τω ηρωδη και τοισ συνανακειμενοισ ειπεν ο βασιλευσ τω κορασιω αιτησον με ο εαν θελησ και δωσω σοιBSBBSB: When the daughter of Herodias came and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”

25. 25BYZκαι εισελθουσα ευθεωσ μετα σπουδησ προσ τον βασιλεα ητησατο λεγουσα θελω ινα μοι δωσ εξαυτησ επι πινακι την κεφαλην ιωαννου του βαπτιστουBSBBSB: At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”
26. 26BYZκαι περιλυποσ γενομενοσ ο βασιλευσ δια τουσ ορκουσ και τουσ συνανακειμενουσ ουκ ηθελησεν αυτην αθετησαιBSBBSB: The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.
27. 27BYZκαι ευθεωσ αποστειλασ ο βασιλευσ σπεκουλατορα επεταξεν ενεχθηναι την κεφαλην αυτουBSBBSB: So without delay, the king commanded that John’s head be brought in. He sent an executioner, who went and beheaded him in the prison.
28. 28BYZο δε απελθων απεκεφαλισεν αυτον εν τη φυλακη και ηνεγκεν την κεφαλην αυτου επι πινακι και εδωκεν αυτην τω κορασιω και το κορασιον εδωκεν αυτην τη μητρι αυτησBSBBSB: The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

30. 30BYZκαι συναγονται οι αποστολοι προσ τον ιησουν και απηγγειλαν αυτω παντα και οσα εποιησαν και οσα εδιδαξανBSBBSB: Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.
31. 31BYZκαι ειπεν αυτοισ δευτε υμεισ αυτοι κατ ιδιαν εισ ερημον τοπον και αναπαυεσθε ολιγον ησαν γαρ οι ερχομενοι και οι υπαγοντεσ πολλοι και ουδε φαγειν ευκαιρουνBSBBSB: And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
32. 32BYZκαι απηλθον εισ ερημον τοπον τω πλοιω κατ ιδιανBSBBSB: So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.
33. 33BYZκαι ειδον αυτουσ υπαγοντασ και επεγνωσαν αυτον πολλοι και πεζη απο πασων των πολεων συνεδραμον εκει και προηλθον αυτουσ και συνηλθον προσ αυτονBSBBSB: But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.
34. 34BYZκαι εξελθων ειδεν ο ιησουσ πολυν οχλον και εσπλαγχνισθη επ αυτοισ οτι ησαν ωσ προβατα μη εχοντα ποιμενα και ηρξατο διδασκειν αυτουσ πολλαBSBBSB: When Jesus stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.

37. 37BYZο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν αυτοισ δοτε αυτοισ υμεισ φαγειν και λεγουσιν αυτω απελθοντεσ αγορασωμεν δηναριων διακοσιων αρτουσ και δωμεν αυτοισ φαγεινBSBBSB: But Jesus told them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked Him, “Should we go out and spend two hundred denarii to give all of them bread to eat?”
38. 38BYZο δε λεγει αυτοισ ποσουσ αρτουσ εχετε υπαγετε και ιδετε και γνοντεσ λεγουσιν πεντε και δυο ιχθυασBSBBSB: “Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”
39. 39BYZκαι επεταξεν αυτοισ ανακλιναι παντασ συμποσια συμποσια επι τω χλωρω χορτωBSBBSB: Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.
40. 40BYZκαι ανεπεσον πρασιαι πρασιαι ανα εκατον και ανα πεντηκονταBSBBSB: So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.
41. 41BYZκαι λαβων τουσ πεντε αρτουσ και τουσ δυο ιχθυασ αναβλεψασ εισ τον ουρανον ευλογησεν και κατεκλασεν τουσ αρτουσ και εδιδου τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου ινα παραθωσιν αυτοισ και τουσ δυο ιχθυασ εμερισεν πασινBSBBSB: Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, Jesus spoke a blessing and broke the loaves.

42. 42BYZκαι εφαγον παντεσ και εχορτασθησανBSBBSB: They all ate and were satisfied,
43. 43BYZκαι ηραν κλασματων δωδεκα κοφινουσ πληρεισ και απο των ιχθυωνBSBBSB: and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.
44. 44BYZκαι ησαν οι φαγοντεσ τουσ αρτουσ πεντακισχιλιοι ανδρεσBSBBSB: And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.
45. 45BYZκαι ευθεωσ ηναγκασεν τουσ μαθητασ αυτου εμβηναι εισ το πλοιον και προαγειν εισ το περαν προσ βηθσαιδαν εωσ αυτοσ απολυση τον οχλονBSBBSB: Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.
46. 46BYZκαι αποταξαμενοσ αυτοισ απηλθεν εισ το οροσ προσευξασθαιBSBBSB: After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.
47. 47BYZκαι οψιασ γενομενησ ην το πλοιον εν μεσω τησ θαλασσησ και αυτοσ μονοσ επι τησ γησBSBBSB: When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.
48. 48BYZκαι ειδεν αυτουσ βασανιζομενουσ εν τω ελαυνειν ην γαρ ο ανεμοσ εναντιοσ αυτοισ και περι τεταρτην φυλακην τησ νυκτοσ ερχεται προσ αυτουσ περιπατων επι τησ θαλασσησ και ηθελεν παρελθειν αυτουσBSBBSB: He could see that the disciples were straining to row, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea. He intended to pass by them,
49. 49BYZοι δε ιδοντεσ αυτον περιπατουντα επι τησ θαλασσησ εδοξαν φαντασμα ειναι και ανεκραξανBSBBSB: but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—
50. 50BYZπαντεσ γαρ αυτον ειδον και εταραχθησαν και ευθεωσ ελαλησεν μετ αυτων και λεγει αυτοισ θαρσειτε εγω ειμι μη φοβεισθεBSBBSB: for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”
51. 51BYZκαι ανεβη προσ αυτουσ εισ το πλοιον και εκοπασεν ο ανεμοσ και λιαν εκπερισσου εν εαυτοισ εξισταντο και εθαυμαζονBSBBSB: Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,
52. 52BYZου γαρ συνηκαν επι τοισ αρτοισ ην γαρ αυτων η καρδια πεπωρωμενηBSBBSB: for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.
53. 53BYZκαι διαπερασαντεσ ηλθον επι την γην γεννησαρετ και προσωρμισθησανBSBBSB: When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.
54. 54BYZκαι εξελθοντων αυτων εκ του πλοιου ευθεωσ επιγνοντεσ αυτονBSBBSB: As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus
55. 55BYZπεριδραμοντεσ ολην την περιχωρον εκεινην ηρξαντο επι τοισ κραββατοισ τουσ κακωσ εχοντασ περιφερειν οπου ηκουον οτι εκει εστινBSBBSB: and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.
56. 56BYZκαι οπου αν εισεπορευετο εισ κωμασ η πολεισ η αγρουσ εν ταισ αγοραισ ετιθουν τουσ ασθενουντασ και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα καν του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου αψωνται και οσοι αν ηπτοντο αυτου εσωζοντοBSBBSB: And wherever He went—villages and towns and countrysides—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
