馬太福音 14
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1那時，分封的王 希律 聽見耶穌的名聲，
1At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus
2就對臣僕說：「這是施洗的 約翰 從死裏復活，所以這些異能從他裏面發出來。」
2and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”
3起先， 希律 為他兄弟 腓力 的妻子 希羅底 的緣故，把 約翰 拿住，鎖在監裏。
3Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,
4因為 約翰 曾對他說：「你娶這婦人是不合理的。」
4because John had been telling him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
5希律 就想要殺他，只是怕百姓，因為他們以 約翰 為先知。
5Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.
6到了 希律 的生日， 希羅底 的女兒在眾人面前跳舞，使 希律 歡喜。
6On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod
7希律 就起誓，應許隨她所求的給她。
7so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.
8女兒被母親所使，就說：「請把施洗 約翰 的頭放在盤子裏，拿來給我。」
8Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”
9王便憂愁，但因他所起的誓，又因同席的人，就吩咐給她；
9The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted
10於是打發人去，在監裏斬了 約翰 ，
10and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.
11把頭放在盤子裏，拿來給了女子；女子拿去給她母親。
11John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.
12約翰 的門徒來，把屍首領去埋葬了，就去告訴耶穌。
12Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.
13耶穌聽見了，就上船從那裏獨自退到野地裏去。眾人聽見，就從各城裏步行跟隨他。
13When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.
14耶穌出來，見有許多的人，就憐憫他們，治好了他們的病人。
14When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15天將晚的時候，門徒進前來，說：「這是野地，時候已經過了，請叫眾人散開，他們好往村子裏去，自己買吃的。」
15When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”
16耶穌說：「不用他們去，你們給他們吃吧！」
16“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”
17門徒說：「我們這裏只有五個餅，兩條魚。」
17“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.
18耶穌說：「拿過來給我。」
18“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.
19於是吩咐眾人坐在草地上，就拿着這五個餅，兩條魚，望着天祝福，擘開餅，遞給門徒，門徒又遞給眾人。
19And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
20他們都吃，並且吃飽了，把剩下的零碎收拾起來，裝滿了十二個籃子。
20They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
21吃的人，除了婦女孩子，約有五千。
21About five thousand men were fed, in addition to women and children.
22耶穌隨即催門徒上船，先渡到那邊去，等他叫眾人散開。
22Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.
23散了眾人以後，他就獨自上山去禱告。到了晚上，只有他一人在那裏。
23After He had sent them away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,
24那時船在海中，因風不順，被浪搖撼。
24but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.
25夜裏四更天，耶穌在海面上走，往門徒那裏去。
25During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.
26門徒看見他在海面上走，就驚慌了，說：「是個鬼怪！」便害怕，喊叫起來。
26When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.
27耶穌連忙對他們說：「你們放心，是我，不要怕！」
27But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”
28彼得 說：「主，如果是你，請叫我從水面上走到你那裏去。」
28“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”
29耶穌說：「你來吧。」 彼得 就從船上下去，在水面上走，要到耶穌那裏去；
29“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.
30只因見風甚大，就害怕，將要沉下去，便喊着說：「主啊，救我！」
30But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”
31耶穌趕緊伸手拉住他，說：「你這小信的人哪，為甚麼疑惑呢？」
31Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”
32他們上了船，風就住了。
32And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.
33在船上的人都拜他，說：「你真是上帝的兒子了。」
33Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”
34他們過了 海 ，來到 革尼撒勒 地方。
34When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.
35那裏的人一認出是耶穌，就打發人到周圍地方去，把所有的病人帶到他那裏，
35And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him
36只求耶穌准他們摸他的衣裳繸子；摸着的人就都好了。
36and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
