Mateus 14 - Bíblia Online

EN aquel tiempo Herodes el tetrarca oyó la fama de Jesús, 
Y dijo á sus criados: Este es Juan el Bautista: él ha resucitado de los muertos, y por eso virtudes obran en él. 
Porque Herodes había prendido á Juan, y le había aprisionado y puesto en la cárcel, por causa de Herodías, mujer de Felipe su hermano; 
Porque Juan le decía: No te es lícito tenerla. 
Y quería matarle, mas temía al pueblo; porque le tenían como á profeta. 
Mas celebrándose el día del nacimiento de Herodes, la hija de Herodías danzó en medio, y agradó á Herodes. 
Y prometió él con juramento de darle todo lo que pidiese. 
Y ella, instruída primero de su madre, dijo: Dame aquí en un plato la cabeza de Juan el Bautista. 
Entonces el rey se entristeció; mas por el juramento, y por los que estaban juntamente á la mesa, mandó que se le diese. 
Y enviando, degolló á Juan en la cárcel. 
Y fué traída su cabeza en un plato y dada á la muchacha; y ella la presentó á su madre. 
Entonces llegaron sus discípulos, y tomaron el cuerpo, y lo enterraron; y fueron, y dieron las nuevas á Jesús. 
Y oyéndo lo Jesús, se apartó de allí en un barco á un lugar descierto, apartado: y cuando las gentes lo oyeron, le siguieron á pie de las ciudades. 
Y saliendo Jesús, vió un gran gentío, y tuvo compasión de ellos, y sanó á los que de ellos había enfermos. 
Y cuando fué la tarde del día, se llegaron á él sus discípulos, diciendo: El lugar es desierto, y el tiempo es ya pasado: despide las gentes, para que se vayan por las aldeas, y compren para sí de comer. 
Y Jesús les dijo: No tienen necesidad de irse: dadles vosotros de comer. 
Y ellos dijeron: No tenemos aquí sino cinco panes y dos peces. 
Y él les dijo: Traédmelos acá. 
Y mandando á las gentes recostarse sobre la hierba, tomando los cinco panes y los dos peces, alzando los ojos al cielo, bendijo, y partió y dió los panes á los discípulos, y los discípulos á las gentes. 
Y comieron todos, y se hartaron; y alzaron lo que sobró de los pedazos, doce cestas llenas. 
Y los que comieron fueron como cinco mil hombres, sin las mujeres y los niños. 
Y luego Jesús hizo á sus discípulos entrar en el barco, é ir delante de él á la otra parte del lago, entre tanto que él despedía á las gentes. 
Y despedidas las gentes, subió al monte, apartado, á orar: y como fué la tarde del día, estaba allí solo. 
Y ya el barco estaba en medio de la mar, atormentado de las ondas; porque el viento era contrario. 
Mas á la cuarta vela de la noche, Jesús fué á ellos andando sobre la mar. 
Y los discípulos, viéndole andar sobre la mar, se turbaron, diciendo: Fantasma es. Y dieron voces de miedo. 
Mas luego Jesús les habló, diciendo: Confiad, yo soy; no tengáis miedo. 
Entonces le respondió Pedro, y dijo: Señor, si tú eres, manda que yo vaya á ti sobre las aguas. 
Y él dijo: Ven. Y descendiendo Pedro del barco, andaba sobre las aguas para ir á Jesús. 
Mas viendo el viento fuerte, tuvo miedo; y comenzándose á hundir, dió voces, diciendo: Señor, sálvame. 
Y luego Jesús, extendiendo la mano, trabó de él, y le dice: Oh hombre de poca fe, ¿por qué dudaste? 
Y como ellos entraron en el barco, sosegóse el viento. 
Entonces los que estaban en el barco, vinieron y le adoraron, diciendo: Verdaderamente eres Hijo de Dios. 
Y llegando á la otra parte, vinieron á la tierra de Genezaret. 
Y como le conocieron los hombres de aquel lugar, enviaron por toda aquella tierra alrededor, y trajeron á él todos los enfermos; 
Y le rogaban que solamente tocasen el borde de su manto; y todos los que tocaron, quedaron sanos. 

At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus, 
and 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.` 
For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip`s wife, 
for John was saying to him, `It is not lawful to thee to have her,` 
and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him. 
But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod, 
whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask. 
And she having been instigated by her mother -- `Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist; 
and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given; 
and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison, 
and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother. 
And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus, 
and 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. 
And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm; 
and 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.` 
And Jesus said to them, `They have no need to go away -- give ye them to eat.` 
And they say to him, `We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.` 
And he said, `Bring ye them to me hither.` 
And 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, 
and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full; 
and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children. 
And 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; 
and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone, 
and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary. 
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea, 
and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying -- `It is an apparition,` and from the fear they cried out; 
and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.` 
And Peter answering him said, `Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;` 
and he said, `Come;` and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus, 
but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, `Sir, save me.` 
And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, `Little faith! for what didst thou waver?` 
and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled, 
and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly -- God`s Son art thou.` 
And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret, 
and 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, 
and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
