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

¹At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

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

²and said to his servants, This is John the baptist: *he* is risen from the dead, and because of this these works of power display their force in him.

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

³For Herod had seized John, and had bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother.

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

⁴For John said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

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

⁵And [while] desiring to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him for a prophet.

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

⁶But when Herod's birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod;

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

⁷whereupon he promised with oath to give her whatsoever she should ask.

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

⁸But she, being set on by her mother, says, Give me here upon a dish the head of John the baptist.

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

⁹And the king was grieved; but on account of the oaths, and those lying at table with [him], he commanded [it] to be given.

¹⁰Ja ta saatis vanglasse mehed Johannesel pead otsast lööma.

¹⁰And he sent and beheaded John in the prison;

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

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

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

¹²And his disciples came and took the body and buried it, and came and brought word to Jesus.

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

¹³And Jesus, having heard it, went away thence by ship to a desert place apart. And the crowds having heard [of it] followed him on foot from the cities.

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

¹⁴And going out he saw a great crowd, and was moved with compassion about them, and healed their infirm.

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!'

¹⁵But when even was come, his disciples came to him saying, The place is desert, and [much of] the [day] time already gone by; dismiss the crowds, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.

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

¹⁶But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give *ye* them to eat.

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

¹⁷But they say to him, We have not here save five loaves and two fishes.

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

¹⁸And he said, Bring them here to me.

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.

¹⁹And having commanded the crowds to recline upon the grass, having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed: and having broken the loaves, he gave [them] to the disciples, and the disciples [gave them] to the crowds.

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

²⁰And all ate and were filled, and they took up what was over and above of fragments twelve hand-baskets full.

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

²¹But those that had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

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

²²And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds.

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

²³And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there,

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

²⁴but the ship was already in the middle of the sea tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

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

²⁵But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea.

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

²⁶And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.

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

²⁷But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is *I*: be not afraid.

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

²⁸And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be *thou*, command me to come to thee upon the waters.

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

²⁹And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus.

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

³⁰But seeing the wind strong he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.

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

³¹And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?

³²Ja kui nad astusid paati, rauges tuul.

³²And when they had gone up into the ship, the wind fell.

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

³³But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son.

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

³⁴And having crossed over they came to the land of Gennesaret.

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

³⁵And when the men of that place recognised him, they sent to that whole country around, and they brought to him all that were ill,

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

³⁶and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment; and as many as touched were made thoroughly well.
