1 STV Ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις παμπολλοῦ ὄχλου ὄντος καὶ μὴ ἐχόντων τί φάγωσιν προσκαλεσάμενος ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγει αὐτοῖς BSB BSB: In those days the crowd once again became very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
2 STV Σπλαγχνίζομαι ἐπὶ τὸν ὄχλον ὅτι ἤδη ἡμέρας τρεῖς προσμένουσίν μοι καὶ οὐκ ἔχουσιν τί φάγωσιν· BSB BSB: “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.
3 STV καὶ ἐὰν ἀπολύσω αὐτοὺς νήστεις εἰς οἶκον αὐτῶν ἐκλυθήσονται ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ· τινες γὰρ αὐτῶν μακρόθεν ἥκασιν BSB BSB: If I send them home hungry, they will faint along the way. For some of them have come a great distance.”
4 STV καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ Πόθεν τούτους δυνήσεταί τις ὧδε χορτάσαι ἄρτων ἐπ’ ἐρημίας BSB BSB: His disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”
5 STV καὶ ἐπηρώτα αὐτούς Πόσους ἔχετε ἄρτους οἱ δὲ εἶπον, Ἑπτά BSB BSB: “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
6 STV καὶ παρήγγειλεν τῷ ὄχλῳ ἀναπεσεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς· καὶ λαβὼν τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους εὐχαριστήσας ἔκλασεν καὶ ἐδίδου τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα παραθῶσιν καὶ παρέθηκαν τῷ ὄχλῳ BSB BSB: And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves, gave thanks and broke them, and gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And they distributed them to the crowd.
7 STV καὶ εἶχον ἰχθύδια ὀλίγα· καὶ εὐλογήσας εἶπεν παραθεῖναι καὶ αὐτὰ BSB BSB: They also had a few small fish, and Jesus blessed them and ordered that these be set before them as well.
8 STV ἔφαγον δὲ, καὶ ἐχορτάσθησαν καὶ ἦραν περισσεύματα κλασμάτων ἑπτὰ σπυρίδας BSB BSB: The people ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
9 STV ἦσαν δὲ οἱ φαγόντες ὡς τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ ἀπέλυσεν αὐτούς BSB BSB: And about four thousand men were present. And when Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
10 STV Καὶ εὐθὲως ἐμβὰς εἰς τὸ πλοῖον μετὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ ἦλθεν εἰς τὰ μέρη Δαλμανουθά BSB BSB: He immediately got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
11 STV Καὶ ἐξῆλθον οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ ἤρξαντο συζητεῖν αὐτῷ ζητοῦντες παρ’ αὐτοῦ σημεῖον ἀπὸ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πειράζοντες αὐτόν BSB BSB: Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
12 STV καὶ ἀναστενάξας τῷ πνεύματι αὐτοῦ λέγει Τί ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη σημεῖον ἐπιζητεῖ ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν εἰ δοθήσεται τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ σημεῖον BSB BSB: Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
13 STV καὶ ἀφεὶς αὐτοὺς ἐμβὰς πάλιν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸ πέραν BSB BSB: And He left them, got back into the boat, and crossed to the other side.
14 STV Καὶ ἐπελάθοντο λαβεῖν ἄρτους καὶ εἰ μὴ ἕνα ἄρτον οὐκ εἶχον μεθ’ ἑαυτῶν ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ BSB BSB: Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.
15 STV καὶ διεστέλλετο αὐτοῖς λέγων, Ὁρᾶτε βλέπετε ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ τῆς ζύμης Ἡρῴδου BSB BSB: “Watch out!” He cautioned them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
16 STV καὶ διελογίζοντο πρὸς ἀλλήλους λέγοντες, ὅτι Ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχομεν BSB BSB: So they began to discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.
17 STV καὶ γνοὺς ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς Τί διαλογίζεσθε ὅτι ἄρτους οὐκ ἔχετε οὔπω νοεῖτε οὐδὲ συνίετε ἔτι πεπωρωμένην ἔχετε τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν BSB BSB: Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts?
18 STV ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχοντες οὐ βλέπετε καὶ ὦτα ἔχοντες οὐκ ἀκούετε καὶ οὐ μνημονεύετε BSB BSB: ‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?
19 STV ὅτε τοὺς πέντε ἄρτους ἔκλασα εἰς τοὺς πεντακισχιλίους πόσους κοφίνους πλήρεις κλασμάτων ἤρατε λέγουσιν αὐτῷ Δώδεκα BSB BSB: When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Twelve,” they answered.
20 STV Ὅτε δὲ τοὺς ἑπτὰ εἰς τοὺς τετρακισχιλίους πόσων σπυρίδων πληρώματα κλασμάτων ἤρατε Οἱ δὲ εἶπον, Ἑπτά BSB BSB: “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Seven,” they said.
21 STV καὶ ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς Πῶς οὐ συνίετε BSB BSB: Then He asked them, “Do you still not understand?”
22 STV Καὶ ἔρχεταί εἰς Βηθσαϊδάν καὶ φέρουσιν αὐτῷ τυφλὸν καὶ παρακαλοῦσιν αὐτὸν ἵνα αὐτοῦ ἅψηται BSB BSB: When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
23 STV καὶ ἐπιλαβόμενος τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ τυφλοῦ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἔξω τῆς κώμης καὶ πτύσας εἰς τὰ ὄμματα αὐτοῦ ἐπιθεὶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῷ ἐπηρώτα αὐτόν Εἴ τι βλέπει BSB BSB: So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.
24 STV καὶ ἀναβλέψας ἔλεγεν Βλέπω τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ὅτι ὡς δένδρα ὁρῶ περιπατοῦντας BSB BSB: The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.”
25 STV εἶτα πάλιν ἐπέθηκεν τὰς χεῖρας ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸν αναβλέψαι καὶ ἀποκατεστάθη καὶ ἐνέβλεψεν τηλαυγῶς ἅπαντας BSB BSB: Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
26 STV καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ λέγων, Μηδὲ εἰς τὴν κώμην εἰσέλθῃς Μηδὲ εἴπης τινὶ ἐν τῇ κώμῃ BSB BSB: Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”
28 STV οἱ δὲ ἀπεκρίθησαν, Ἰωάννην τὸν βαπτιστήν καὶ ἄλλοι Ἠλίαν ἄλλοι δὲ ἕνα τῶν προφητῶν BSB BSB: They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”
29 STV καὶ αὐτὸς λέγει αὐτοῖς Ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνα με λέγετε εἶναι ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Πέτρος λέγει αὐτῷ Σὺ εἶ ὁ Χριστός BSB BSB: “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
30 STV καὶ ἐπετίμησεν αὐτοῖς ἵνα μηδενὶ λέγωσιν περὶ αὐτοῦ BSB BSB: And Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about Him.
32 STV καὶ παρρησίᾳ τὸν λόγον ἐλάλει καὶ προσλαβόμενος αὐτὸν ὁ Πέτρος ἤρξατο ἐπιτιμᾶν αὐτῷ BSB BSB: He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.
33 STV ὁ δὲ ἐπιστραφεὶς καὶ ἰδὼν τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἐπετίμησεν τῷ Πέτρῳ λέγων, Ὕπαγε ὀπίσω μου σατανᾶ ὅτι οὐ φρονεῖς τὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἀλλὰ τὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων BSB BSB: But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
34 STV Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος τὸν ὄχλον σὺν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ὅστις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἐλθεῖν, ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι BSB BSB: Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.
35 STV ὃς γὰρ ἂν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι ἀπολέσει αὐτήν· ὃς δ’ ἂν ἀπολέσῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ καὶ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου οὐτὸς σώσει αὐτήν BSB BSB: For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it.
36 STV τί γὰρ ὠφελήσει ἄνθρωπον ἐὰν κερδήσῃ τὸν κόσμον ὅλον καὶ ζημιωθῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ BSB BSB: What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
37 STV ἢ τί δώσει ἄνθρωπος ἀντάλλαγμα τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ BSB BSB: Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 STV ὃς γὰρ ἂν ἐπαισχυνθῇ με καὶ τοὺς ἐμοὺς λόγους ἐν τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ τῇ μοιχαλίδι καὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ καὶ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐπαισχυνθήσεται αὐτὸν ὅταν ἔλθῃ ἐν τῇ δόξῃ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀγγέλων τῶν ἁγίων BSB BSB: If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
