Matthew 14
1 At that [very] time heard Herod the tetrarch the news of Jesus
ⲁ̅ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛϭⲓ ϩⲏⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ ⲡⲧⲉⲧⲣⲁⲁⲣⲭⲏⲥ ⲉⲡⲥⲟⲉⲓⲧ ⲛⲓⲏⲥ
2 and he said to the servants of him; This is John the Baptist; he himself is risen from the dead, and because of this the miraculous powers are working in him.

3 For Herod having seized John he bound him and in prison (put [him] aside *N+kO) on account of Herodias the wife of Philip the brother of him.

5 Although wishing him to kill he feared the multitude because as a prophet him they were holding.

6 ([The] birthday *N+kO) now (having happened *N+kO) of Herod danced the daughter of Herodias in the midst and pleased Herod;

7 whereupon with oath he promised to her to give whatever (if *NK+o) she shall ask.

8 And having been urged on by the mother of her; do give to me she says here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.

9 And (being grieved *N+kO) the king on account of (now *k) the oaths and those reclining with [him] he commanded [it] to be given.

10 And he having sent beheaded John in the prison.

11 And was brought the head of him on a platter and was given to the girl, and she brought [it] to the mother of her.

12 And having come the disciples of him took the (body *N+kO) and buried (it, *N+kO) and having come they told Jesus.

13 (and *k) Having heard (now *no) Jesus withdrew from there by boat to a secluded place apart [on his] own. And having heard [of it] the crowds followed Him on foot from the towns.

14 And having gone out (Jesus *k) He saw great a crowd and was moved with compassion toward (them *N+kO) and healed the sick of them.

15 Evening now having come they came to Him the disciples (of him *k) saying; Desolate is this place, and the time already is gone by; do dismiss the crowds that having gone into the villages they may buy for themselves food.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲣⲟⲩϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲕⲁⲙⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲡⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲛⲥⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ
16 And Jesus said to them; No need they have to go away; do give to them you yourselves to eat.

17 And they say to Him; Not we have here only except five loaves and two fish.

18 And He said; do bring to Me here them.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲥⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲡⲉⲓⲙⲁ
19 And having commanded the crowds to sit down on (the grass, *N+kO) (and *k) having taken the five loaves and the two fish, having looked up to heaven He spoke a blessing, and having broken He gave to the disciples the loaves, and the disciples to the crowds.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲙ ⲡⲉⲭⲟⲣⲧⲟⲥ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲙⲡϯⲟⲩ ⲛⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲙⲛ ⲡⲧⲏⲃⲧ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲁϥϥⲓⲉⲓⲁⲧϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲡⲉ ⲁϥⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲡⲟϣⲟⲩ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲛⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ
20 And ate all and were satisfied; and they took up that which is remaindering of the fragments, twelve hand-baskets full.
ⲕ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲥⲉⲓ ⲁⲩϥⲓ ⲛⲛⲗⲁⲕⲙ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲥⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ
21 Those then eating were men about five thousand besides women and children.

22 And immediately He compelled (Jesus *k) the disciples (of him *k) to climb into the boat and to go before Him to the other side until that He may have dismissed the crowds.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲁⲍⲉ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧⲁⲗⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲣⲟ ϣⲁⲛⲧⲉϥⲕⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲙⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ
23 And having dismissed the crowds He went up on the mountain on [his] own to pray. Evening now having arrived alone He was there.

24 And the boat now (stadia many *NO) (from *N+KO) of the (land was fully *N+KO) being tossed by the waves; was for contrary [was] the wind.

25 In [the] fourth now watch of the night (he came *N+KO) to them (Jesus *k) walking on (the sea. *N+kO)

26 (and *N+kO) the disciples having seen Him on (the sea *N+kO) walking they were troubled saying that A ghost it is! And in fear they cried out.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲓϫⲛ ⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲁⲩϣⲧⲟⲣⲧⲣ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲫⲁⲛⲧⲁⲥⲙⲁ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲑⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲓϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
27 Immediately now spoke Jesus to them saying; Take courage! I myself it is, not do fear.

28 Answering now to Him Peter said: Lord, if You yourself [it] is, do command me to come to You upon the waters.

29 And He said; do come. And having descended from the boat Peter walked upon the water (and *no) (came *N+kO) to Jesus.

31 Immediately now Jesus having stretched out the hand took hold of him and He says to him; [You] of little faith, of why did you doubt?
