Matthew 14:1–21
*At that time aHerod bthe tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus, 2 And said unto his cservants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore dmighty works ||do shew forth themselves in him. 3 For Herod *ehad laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, fhis brother Philip’s wife. 4 For John said unto him, gIt is not lawful for thee to have her. 5 And when he would have put him to death, hhe feared the multitude, because they counted him as ia prophet. 6 But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced †before them, and pleased Herod. 7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask. 8 And she, being kbefore instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist’s head in a lcharger. 9 And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath’s sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her. 10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison. 11 And his head was brought in a lcharger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother. 12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
13 *mWhen Jesus heard of it, nhe departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities. 14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and owas moved with compassion toward them, and he phealed their sick. 15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and qthe time is now past; rsend the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals. 16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; sgive ye them to eat. 17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. 18 He said, Bring them hither to me. 19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and sslooking up to heaven, the blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. 20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve ubaskets full. 21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.
