Matthew 14
1¶ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus
2and said unto his slaves, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.
3For Herod had laid hold on John and bound him and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.
4For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude because they counted him as a prophet.
6But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.
7Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.
8And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John the Baptist’s head in a platter.
9And the king was sorry; nevertheless because of the oath and of those who sat with him at the table, he commanded it to be given her.
10And he sent and beheaded John in the prison.
11And his head was brought in a platter and given to the damsel, and she brought it to her mother.
12And his disciples came and took up the body and buried it and went and told Jesus.
13¶ When Jesus heard of it, he departed from there by ship into a desert place apart; and when the people had heard of it, they followed him on foot out of the cities.
14And Jesus went forth and saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
15And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.
16But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
17And they said unto him, We have here but five loaves and two fishes.
18He said, Bring them here to me.
19And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass and took the five loaves and the two fishes; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20And they all ate and were filled, and they took up of the fragments that remained, twelve baskets full.
21And those that had eaten were about five thousand men besides women and children.
22¶ And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship and to go before him unto the other side while he sent the multitude away.
23And when he had sent the multitude away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray; and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
24But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves, for the wind was contrary.
25And in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went unto them, walking upon the sea.
26And when the disciples saw him walking upon the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost; and they cried out for fear.
27But straightway Jesus spoke unto them, saying, Trust that I AM; be not afraid.
28Then Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me to come unto thee upon the water.
29And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked upon the water to go to Jesus.
30But seeing that the wind was strong, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.
31And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him and said unto him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?
32And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
33Then those that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Truly thou art the Son of God.
34¶ And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.
35And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about and brought unto him all that were sick
36and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment, and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

Matthew 14
14
1At that season Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus, 2and said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore do these powers work in him. 3For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife. 4For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her. 5And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet. 6But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod. 7Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she should ask. 8And she, being put forward by her mother, saith, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist. 9And the king was grieved; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat with him, he commanded it to be given; 10and he sent and beheaded John in the prison. 11And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother. 12And his disciples came, and took up the corpse, and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.
13Now when Jesus heard it, he withdrew from thence in a boat, to a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard thereof, they followed him on foot from the cities. 14And he came forth, and saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick. 15And when even was come, the disciples came to him, saying, The place is desert, and the time is already past; send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food. 16But Jesus said unto them, They have no need to go away; give ye them to eat. 17And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. 18And he said, Bring them hither to me. 19And he commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. 20And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 21And they that did eat were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
22And straightway he constrained the disciples to enter into the boat, and to go before him unto the other side, till he should send the multitudes away. 23And after he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain apart to pray: and when even was come, he was there alone. 24But the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves; for the wind was contrary. 25And in the fourth watch of the night he came unto them, walking upon the sea. 26And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost; and they cried out for fear. 27But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. 28And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee upon the waters. 29And he said, Come. And Peter went down from the boat, and walked upon the waters to come to Jesus. 30But when he saw the wind, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me. 31And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and took hold of him, and saith unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? 32And when they were gone up into the boat, the wind ceased. 33And they that were in the boat worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.
34And when they had crossed over, they came to the land, unto Gennesaret. 35And when the men of that place knew him, they sent into all that region round about, and brought unto him all that were sick; 36and they besought him that they might only touch the border of his garment: and as many as touched were made whole.
