¹At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,

¹Tol ajal sai nelivürst Heroodes kuulda, mida Jeesusest räägiti.

²and said to his servants, `This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.`

²Ja ta ütles oma meestele: 'See on Ristija Johannes! Tema on üles äratatud surnuist ja seepärast toimivad imeväed tema kaudu.'

³For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip`s wife,

³Heroodes oli ju Johannese kinni võtnud, aheldanud ja pannud vanglasse Heroodiase, oma venna Filippuse naise pärast,

⁴for John was saying to him, `It is not lawful to thee to have her,`

⁴sest Johannes oli talle öelnud: 'Sa ei tohi teda pidada!'

⁵and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.

⁵Ja Heroodes oleks tahtnud Johannese tappa, kuid kartis rahvast, sest Johannest peeti prohvetiks.

⁶But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,

⁶Aga kui tuli Heroodese sünnipäev, tantsis Heroodiase tütar nende keskel ja meeldis Heroodesele,

⁷whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.

⁷nõnda et ta vandega tõotas talle anda, mida ta iganes soovib.

⁸And she having been instigated by her mother — `Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;

⁸Tema aga lausus oma ema õhutusel: 'Anna mulle vaagnal Ristija Johannese pea!'

⁹and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;

⁹Kuningas kurvastas, kuid vande ja piduliste pärast käskis talle selle anda.

¹⁰and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,

¹⁰Ja ta saatis vanglasse mehed Johannesel pead otsast lööma.

¹¹and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.

¹¹Ja Johannese pea toodi vaagnal ja anti tüdrukule ning too viis selle oma emale.

¹²And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,

¹²Ja Johannese jüngrid tulid, viisid ta surnukeha ära ja matsid maha ning tulid ja teatasid sellest Jeesusele.

¹³and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.

¹³Kui Jeesus sai sellest kuulda, eemaldus ta sealt paadiga tühja paika, et olla omaette. Ja kui rahvahulgad sellest kuulsid, järgnesid nad talle jalgsi linnadest.

¹⁴And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;

¹⁴Ja kui Jeesus astus paadist välja ja nägi suurt rahvahulka, läks ta meel haledaks ning ta tervendas nende haiged.

¹⁵and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, `The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.`

¹⁵Õhtu jõudes aga astusid Jeesuse jüngrid ta juurde ja ütlesid: 'Paik on üksildane ja aeg juba hiline, lase nüüd rahvahulgad ära minna, et nad läheksid küladesse endale süüa otsima!'

¹⁶And Jesus said to them, `They have no need to go away — give ye them to eat.`

¹⁶Aga Jeesus ütles neile: 'Neil ei ole tarvis ära minna. Andke teie neile süüa!'

¹⁷And they say to him, `We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.`

¹⁷Nemad aga ütlesid talle: 'Meil ei ole siin rohkem kui vaid viis leiba ja kaks kala.'

¹⁸And he said, `Bring ye them to me hither.`

¹⁸Aga tema ütles: 'Tooge need mulle siia!'

¹⁹And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,

¹⁹Ja Jeesus käskis rahvahulkadel istuda rohule, võttis need viis leiba ja kaks kala, vaatas üles taevasse, õnnistas ja murdis ning andis leivad jüngrite kätte, jüngrid aga andsid need rahvale.

²⁰and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;

²⁰Ja kõik sõid ja said kõhud täis. Ja ülejäänud palakesi korjati kaksteist korvitäit.

²¹and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.

²¹Aga sööjaid oli ligi viis tuhat meest, peale selle veel naised ja lapsed.

²²And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;

²²Ja Jeesus käskis sedamaid oma jüngreid paati astuda ja sõita vastaskaldale tema eele, sellal kui ta laseb rahvahulkadel minna.

²³and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,

²³Kui ta siis rahvahulgad oli minema lasknud, läks ta üles mäele üksinda palvetama. Ja õhtu jõudes oli ta seal üksinda.

²⁴and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

²⁴Aga paat oli juba hulga maad kaldast eemaldunud, heitlemas lainetega, sest tuul oli vastu.

²⁵And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,

²⁵Ent neljandal öövahikorral tuli Jeesus nende juurde järve peal kõndides.

²⁶and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying — `It is an apparition,` and from the fear they cried out;

²⁶Aga Jeesust järve peal kõndimas nähes ütlesid jüngrid kohkunult: 'See on tont!' ja hakkasid hirmu pärast kisendama.

²⁷and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.`

²⁷Aga Jeesus kõnetas neid sedamaid: 'Olge julged, see olen mina, ärge kartke!'

²⁸And Peter answering him said, `Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;`

²⁸Peetrus vastas: 'Issand, kui see oled sina, siis käsi mind tulla enda juurde vee peale!'

²⁹and he said, `Come;` and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,

²⁹Tema ütles: 'Tule!' Ja Peetrus astus paadist välja ning kõndis vee peal ja tuli Jeesuse juurde.

³⁰but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, `Sir, save me.`

³⁰Aga tuult nähes lõi ta kartma ja hüüdis uppuma hakates: 'Issand, päästa mind!'

³¹And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, `Little faith! for what didst thou waver?`

³¹Jeesus sirutas kohe oma käe, haaras temast kinni ning ütles talle: 'Sa nõdrausuline, miks sa kahtlesid?'

³²and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,

³²Ja kui nad astusid paati, rauges tuul.

³³and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly — God`s Son art thou.`

³³Paadisolijad aga kummardasid teda ja ütlesid: 'Tõesti, sina oled Jumala Poeg!'

³⁴And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,

³⁴Ja kui nad olid sõitnud üle järve, siis nad tulid maale Genneesaretis.

³⁵and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,

³⁵Ja kui selle koha mehed Jeesuse ära tundsid, läkitasid nad sõna kogu ümbruskonda ja tema juurde toodi kõik haiged

³⁶and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.

³⁶ja need palusid teda, et nad saaksid üksnes puudutada tema kuue palistust, ja kes iganes teda puudutas, sai terveks.
