< Matthew 14 >

1 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
ᎾᏁᏳ ᎡᎶᏛ ᏅᎩ ᎢᎦᏚᎩ ᎨᏒ ᏍᏓᏚᎩ ᎠᏥᎦᏘᏗᏍᏗ ᎤᏛᎦᏁ ᏕᎦᏃᏣᎸ ᏥᏌ.
2 and 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.

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

4 For John said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
ᏣᏂᏰᏃ ᎯᎠ ᏄᏪᏎᎴ ᎡᎶᏛ; ᎥᏝ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᏱᎩ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏣᏓᏰᎭ.
5 And [while] desiring to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him for a prophet.
ᎠᎴ ᎤᏚᎵᏍᎨ ᎤᎯᏍᏗᏱ, ᎠᏎᏃ ᏓᏍᎦᎢᎮ ᏴᏫ, ᎠᏙᎴᎰᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᎤᏂᏰᎸᏎ ᏣᏂ.
6 But when Herod's birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod;
ᎠᏎᏃ ᎿᎭᏉ ᎡᎶᏛ ᎤᏕᏅ ᎢᏳ ᎢᎦ ᏚᏂᎳᏫᏨ, ᎡᎶᏗᏏ ᎤᏪᏥ ᎠᏛ ᎤᎾᎵᏍᎩᎡᎴᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎣᏎ ᎤᏰᎸᏁ ᎡᎶᏛ.
7 whereupon he promised with oath to give her whatsoever she should ask.

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

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

10 And he sent and beheaded John in the prison;
ᎤᏓᏅᏎᏃ ᏭᏂᏍᎫᏕᏎ ᏣᏂ ᏗᏓᏍᏚᏗᏱ.
11 and his head was brought upon a dish, and was given to the damsel, and she carried [it] to her mother.
ᎤᏍᎪᏃ ᎤᏂᏲᎴ ᎠᏖᎵᏙᎩᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᏁᎴ ᎠᏛ, ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎤᏥ ᏭᏁᎴᎢ.
12 And his disciples came and took the body and buried it, and came and brought word to Jesus.
ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏗᏙᎯᏃ ᎤᏂᎷᏤ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᏁᏎ ᎠᏰᎸᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᏂᏌᏁᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏁᏅᏎ ᏭᏂᏃᏁᎴ ᏥᏌ.
13 And 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.

14 And going out he saw a great crowd, and was moved with compassion about them, and healed their infirm.
ᏥᏌᏃ ᎤᏣᎢᏒ ᏚᎪᎲᎩ ᎤᏂᏣᏘ ᏴᏫ, ᎠᎴ ᏚᏪᏙᎵᏨᎩ, ᎠᎴ ᏚᏅᏩᏅᏧᏂᏢᎩ.
15 But 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.
ᎤᏒᏃ ᏄᎵᏍᏔᏅ ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏙᎯ ᎬᏩᎷᏤᎸᎩ ᎯᎠ ᏄᏂᏪᏒᎩ; ᎠᏂ ᎢᎾᎨᏉ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᎦ ᎤᎶᏐᏂᏗ, ᏥᏤᎾᏉᏃ ᎩᏲᏏ ᎯᎠ ᎤᏂᏣᏘ ᏴᏫ, ᎠᎴ ᏙᏗᎦᏚᎲ ᏫᎠᏂᎶᎯ, ᎾᎿᎭᎤᏅᏒ ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏓᏴᏗ ᎤᏂᏩᏒᎭ.
16 But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give ye them to eat.
ᎠᏎᏃ ᏥᏌ ᎯᎠ ᏂᏚᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᎥᏝ ᎠᏎ ᎥᎤᏁᏅᏍᏗ ᏱᎩ, ᏂᎯᏉ ᏗᏤᎳᏍᏓ.
17 But they say to him, We have not here save five loaves and two fishes.
ᎯᎠᏃ ᏅᎬᏩᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᎠᏂ ᎯᏍᎩᏉ ᎦᏚ ᏙᎩᎭ, ᏔᎵᏉᏃ ᎠᏣᏗ.
18 And he said, Bring them here to me.
ᎯᎠᏃ ᏄᏪᏒᎩ; ᎠᏂ ᏗᏍᎩᏲᎯᏏ.
19 And 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.
ᏚᏁᏤᎸᏃ ᎤᏂᏣᏘ ᎧᏁᏍᎪᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎾᏅᏗᏱ, ᏚᎩᏒᏃ ᎯᏍᎩ ᎦᏚ ᎠᎴ ᏔᎵ ᎠᏣᏗ ᏚᏁᏒ, ᎦᎸᎳᏗᏃ ᏫᏚᎧᎾᏅ ᎤᎵᎮᎵᏨᎩ, ᎠᎴ ᏚᎬᎭᎷᏴ ᏚᏁᎸᎩ ᎦᏚ ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏗᏙᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏗᏙᎯ ᎤᏂᏣᏘ ᏫᏚᏂᏁᎸᎩ.
20 And all ate and were filled, and they took up what was over and above of fragments twelve hand-baskets full.

21 But those that had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏓᏴᏅᎯᏃ ᎯᏍᎩᎭ ᎢᏯᎦᏴᎵ ᎠᏂᏍᎦᏯ ᎾᏂᎥᎩ, ᏂᏓᏁᏢᏛᎾ ᎠᏂᎨᏴ ᎠᎴ ᏗᏂᏲᎵ.
22 And 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.
ᎩᎳᏉᏃ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏥᏌ ᏚᏅᏫᏍᏔᏅᎩ ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏗᏙᎯ ᏥᏳᎯ ᎤᎾᏦᏗᏱ, ᎠᎴ ᎢᎬᏱ ᏂᏚᏂᏐᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎠᏏ ᏓᏰᎵᎯᏍᏗᏍᎬ ᎤᏂᏣᏘ.
23 And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there,

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

25 But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea.
ᎿᎭᏉᏃ ᏅᎩᏁ ᎢᏳᎾᏓᏁᏟᏴᏛ ᎨᏒ ᎠᏂᏯᏫᏍᎩ ᏒᏃᏱ ᏥᏌ ᏫᏚᎷᏤᎸᎩ ᎥᏓᎵ ᎦᏚᎢ ᎠᎢᏒᎩ.
26 And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.
ᎬᏩᏍᏓᏩᏗᏙᎯᏃ ᎬᏩᎪᎲ ᎥᏓᎵ ᎦᏚᎩ; ᎠᎢᏒᎢ ᎤᎾᏓᏅᏖᏔᏅᎩ, ᎯᎠ ᏄᏂᏪᏒᎩ; ᎾᏰᎯ ᎯᎠ. ᎠᏂᏍᎦᎢᎲᏃ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎤᎾᎵᏍᏔᏅᎩ.
27 But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I: be not afraid.
ᎠᏎᏃ ᎩᎳᏉ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏥᏌ ᏚᏁᏤᎸᎩ, ᎯᎠ ᏂᏚᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᎤᎦᎵᏍᏗᏉ ᎢᏣᏓᏅᏓᏓ, ᎠᏴᏉᏰᏃ, ᏞᏍᏗ ᏱᏥᏍᎦᎢᎮᏍᏗ.
28 And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come to thee upon the waters.

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

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

31 And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?
ᎩᎳᏉᏃ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏥᏌ ᏭᏙᏯᏅᎯᏛ ᏭᏂᏴᎲᎩ, ᎯᎠ ᏄᏪᏎᎸᎩ; ᎤᏍᏗ ᏦᎯᏳᎯ, ᎦᏙᎯ ᎥᏣᏜᏓᏏᏛᏏ?
32 And when they had gone up into the ship, the wind fell.

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

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

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

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