Matthew 14




riversident@Matthew:14:1 @ AT that time Herod the Prince heard the reports about Jesus

riversident@Matthew:14:2 @ and said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist. He has risen from the dead and so miraculous powers are working in him."

riversident@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had arrested John and had bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

riversident@Matthew:14:4 @ For John had said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

riversident@Matthew:14:5 @ Although he wished to kill him, he was afraid of the people because they held him for a prophet.

riversident@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst and pleased Herod,

riversident@Matthew:14:7 @ so that he promised with an oath that he would give her whatever she asked.

riversident@Matthew:14:8 @ She, prompted by her mother, said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist."

riversident@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was grieved, but on account of his oaths and his guests he ordered it to be given her,

riversident@Matthew:14:10 @ and he sent and had John beheaded in the prison.

riversident@Matthew:14:11 @ The head was brought in on a platter and was given to the girl and she bore it to her mother.

riversident@Matthew:14:12 @ The disciples of John came and took the body and buried it, and then they came and told Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:14:13 @ Upon hearing of it, Jesus went away in a boat privately to an uninhabited place. But the people heard of it and followed him by land from the towns.

riversident@Matthew:14:14 @ As he got out of the boat, he saw a great crowd and he had compassion on them and healed their sick.

riversident@Matthew:14:15 @ When evening had come on, his disciples came to him and said, "This is an uninhabited place and the time is already late; send away the crowd so that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food."

riversident@Matthew:14:16 @ But Jesus said to them,

riversident@Matthew:14:17 @ They said to him, "We have here nothing but five loaves and two fishes."

riversident@Matthew:14:18 @ He said,

riversident@Matthew:14:19 @ Then he commanded the crowd to recline on the grass, and he took the five loaves and the two fishes and looked up to heaven and asked a blessing. Then he broke up the loaves and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples distributed to the crowd.

riversident@Matthew:14:20 @ All ate and had abundance, and they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces that remained over.

riversident@Matthew:14:21 @ Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

riversident@Matthew:14:22 @ Then he made his disciples get into the boat and go on across while he was dismissing the crowd.

riversident@Matthew:14:23 @ After dismissing the crowd, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray, When evening came, he was there alone.

riversident@Matthew:14:24 @ The boat was already far out from land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them.

riversident@Matthew:14:25 @ In the fourth watch of the night, he came to them walking on the water.

riversident@Matthew:14:26 @ When the disciples saw him walking on the water, they were terrified, saying that it was a ghost, and they cried out with fear.

riversident@Matthew:14:27 @ But at once Jesus spoke to them and said,

riversident@Matthew:14:28 @ Peter answered, "Sir, if it is you, bid me to come to you on the water."

riversident@Matthew:14:29 @ Jesus said, Then Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.

riversident@Matthew:14:30 @ But seeing the wind he became frightened, and, beginning to sink, he cried out, "Sir, save me!"

riversident@Matthew:14:31 @ At once Jesus stretched out his hand and grasped him and said,

riversident@Matthew:14:32 @ After they got into the boat, the wind stopped.

riversident@Matthew:14:33 @ Then the men in the boat bowed down to him and said, "Truly you are the Son of God."

riversident@Matthew:14:34 @ Having crossed, they came to land at Gennesaret.

riversident@Matthew:14:35 @ When the men of that place recognized him, they sent into all that neighborhood and brought to him all the sick

riversident@Matthew:14:36 @ and begged him that they might touch merely the tassel of his cloak, and all who touched were cured.
