22
And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them
that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give
it
thee.
23
And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give
it
thee, unto the half
of my kingdom.
24
And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said,
The head of John the Baptist.
25
And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked,
saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
26
And the king
was exceeding sorry;
yet
for his oath’s sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not
reject her.
27
And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought:
and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28
And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to
the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.

of it,
they came
and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.

And the apostles gathered themselves together unto
Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
31
And he said
unto them,
Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while:
for there were many
coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32
And they departed into a desert
place by ship privately.
33
And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot
thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.
34
And Jesus, when he came
out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep
not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
35
And when the day was now far
spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time
is
far passed:
36
Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy
themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.
37
He answered and said unto them,
Give ye them
to eat.
And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give
them to eat?
38
He saith unto them,
How many loaves have ye? go and see.
And when they knew,
they say, Five, and two fishes.
39
And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies
upon the green grass.
40
And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
41
And when he
had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the
loaves, and gave
them
to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them
all.

and of the fishes.

straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto
Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.

mountain to pray.

And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone
on the land.
48
And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about
the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed
by them.
49
But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and
cried out:
50
For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and
saith unto them,
Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
51
And he went up unto them into the ship;
and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.
