\subsection{Matthew 14} \subsubsection{The Death of Ioannes the Baptist} \VS{1} In that opportune-time\fnKairos{} Herod the tetrarch heard the fame\footnote{or ``report,'' ``hearsay''} of Iesous. \VS{2} and he said to all his servants: This is Ioannes the baptizer, he is risen from the dead, and because of this are the powers\footnote{or ``abilities"} working in him. \VS{3} For Herod having laid hold of Ioannes bound [him] and put [him] in prison because of Herodias the wife of Phillip his brother. \VS{4} For Ioannes was saying to him: It is not allowed for you to be having her. \VS{5} And wishing to kill him he feared the crowd, because they counted him as [a] prophet. \VS{6} So when Herod's birthday came to pass Herodias' daughter danced before them and pleased Herod. \VS{7} And so with an oath he promised\footnote{``professed,'' ``agreed''} to her to do whatever she would ask. \VS{8} So having been induced by her mother she told [him], Give me here upon [a] plate the head of Ioannes the baptizer. \VS{9} And [though] the king was pained by the oaths and those reclining at table with him, he ordered it be given [her]. And having sent he beheaded Ioannes in the prison. And his head was brought upon [a] plate and given the damsel, and she brought [it] to her mother. \VS{12} And his disciples having come, they took the corpse and buried him, and having come they reported [it] to Iesous. \subsubsection{The Feeding of the Five Thousand} \VS{13} Now Iesous having heard, he went out from there in [a] boat to [a] deserted place by himself. And when the crowd heard they followed him on foot from their cities. \VS{14} And having come out he saw [a] great crowd, and had compassion on them and healed their sick. \VS{15} Now when it became evening, the disciples came to him saying: This place is [a] desert and the hour has already past. Therefore disperse the crowd so having gone into the towns they may buy themselves bread. \VS{16} But Iesous said to them: They have no need to be going. You give to them to be eating. \VS{17} But they say to him: We do not have here but five loaves and two fishes. \VS{18} So he says: Be bringing them here to me. \VS{19} And having ordered the crowd to lay back on the grass, taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven he gave thanks, and having broken [them] he gave to the disciples the loaves, and disciples [gave] [them] to the crowd. \VS{20} And all ate and were fattened. And they took the surplus of the fragments, twelve baskets full. \VS{21} And those eating were about five thousand men apart from women and children. \subsubsection{Walking on Water} \VS{22} And he compelled his disciples to embark in the boat and go to the other side, until he disperse the crowd. \VS{23} And having dispersed the crowd he went up to [a] mountain by himself to pray. \VS{24} Now the boat was already many stadions away from the land, being put to the test by the swells, for the wind was against them. \VS{25} So in the fourth watch of the night he came to them walking on the sea. \VS{26} Now the disciples having seen him walking on the sea, they were frightened saying: It is [a] ghost, and they screamed from fear. \VS{27} But immediately Iesous spoke to them saying: Take courage, It is I, Be not fearing. \VS{28} But Peter answering said to him: Lord if it is you, order me to be coming to you on the water. \VS{29} So he said: Come. And coming out of the boat Peter walked on the water and came towards Iesous. \VS{30} But seeing the strong\footnote{``strong'' DW\koine{}; omit: \sinaiticus{}B} wind he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out saying: Lord, save me. \VS{31} So immediately Iesous having stretched out his hand laid hold of him, and says to him: O little-faith, why did you doubt\footnote{or ``Why were you at a loss?''}? \VS{32} And when they came into the boat the wind abated. \VS{33} And those in the boat worshipped him saying: Truly you are [the] Son of God. \VS{34} And having come to the other side they went on the land to Gennesaret. \VS{35} And the men of that place having knowledge of him, they sent into all that surrounding region, and brought to him all those having [it] evil-ly, \VS{36} And they were calling out to him in order that they only grasp\footnote{or ``touch''} the hem of his robe; and whoever grasped\footnote{or ``touched''} [it] was made whole.
