1In illo tempore audivit Herodes tetrarcha famam Jesu:
1At the time Herod the Tetrarch heard the fame of Jesus.
2et ait pueris suis: Hic est Joannes Baptista: ipse surrexit a mortuis, et ideo virtutes operantur in eo.
2And he said to his servants: This is John the Baptist: he is risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works shew forth themselves in him.
3Herodes enim tenuit Joannem, et alligavit eum: et posuit in carcerem propter Herodiadem uxorem fratris sui.
3For Herod had apprehended John and bound him, and put him into prison, because of Herodias, his brother’s wife.
4Dicebat enim illi Joannes: Non licet tibi habere eam.
4For John said to him: It is not lawful for thee to have her.
5Et volens illum occidere, timuit populum: quia sicut prophetam eum habebant.
5And having a mind to put him to death, he feared the people: because they esteemed him as a prophet.
6Die autem natalis Herodis saltavit filia Herodiadis in medio, et placuit Herodi:
6But on Herod’s birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced before them: and pleased Herod.
7unde cum juramento pollicitus est ei dare quodcumque postulasset ab eo.
7Whereupon he promised with an oath, to give her whatsoever she would ask of him.
8At illa præmonita a matre sua: Da mihi, inquit, hic in disco caput Joannis Baptistæ.
8But she being instructed before by her mother, said: Give me here in a dish the head of John the Baptist.
9Et contristatus est rex: propter juramentum autem, et eos qui pariter recumbebant, jussit dari.
9And the king was struck sad: yet because of his oath, and for them that sat with him at table, he commanded it to be given.
10Misitque et decollavit Joannem in carcere.
10And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
11Et allatum est caput ejus in disco, et datum est puellæ, et attulit matri suæ.
11And his head was brought in a dish: and it was given to the damsel, and she brought it to her mother.
12Et accedentes discipuli ejus, tulerunt corpus ejus, et sepelierunt illud: et venientes nuntiaverunt Jesu.
12And his disciples came and took the body, and buried it, and came and told Jesus.
13Quod cum audisset Jesus, secessit inde in navicula, in locum desertum seorsum: et cum audissent turbæ, secutæ sunt eum pedestres de civitatibus.
13Which when Jesus had heard, he retired from thence by boat, into a desert place apart, and the multitudes having heard of it, followed him on foot out of the cities.
14Et exiens vidit turbam multam, et misertus est eis, et curavit languidos eorum.
14And he coming forth saw a great multitude, and had compassion on them, and healed their sick.
15Vespere autem facto, accesserunt ad eum discipuli ejus, dicentes: Desertus est locus, et hora jam præteriit: dimitte turbas, ut euntes in castella, emant sibi escas.
15And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying: This is a desert place, and the hour is now past: send away the multitudes, that going into the towns, they may buy themselves victuals.
16Jesus autem dixit eis: Non habent necesse ire: date illis vos manducare.
16But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give you them to eat.
17Responderunt ei: Non habemus hic nisi quinque panes et duos pisces.
17They answered him: We have not here, but five loaves, and two fishes.
18Qui ait eis: Afferte mihi illos huc.
18He said to them: Bring them hither to me.
19Et cum jussisset turbam discumbere super fœnum, acceptis quinque panibus et duobus piscibus, aspiciens in cælum benedixit, et fregit, et dedit discipulis panes, discipuli autem turbis.
19And when he had commanded the multitudes to sit down upon the grass, he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
20Et manducaverunt omnes, et saturati sunt. Et tulerunt reliquias, duodecim cophinos fragmentorum plenos.
20And they did all eat, and were filled. And they took up what remained, twelve full baskets of fragments.
21Manducantium autem fuit numerus quinque millia virorum, exceptis mulieribus et parvulis.
21And the number of them that did eat, was five thousand men, besides women and children.
22Et statim compulit Jesus discipulos ascendere in naviculam, et præcedere eum trans fretum, donec dimitteret turbas.
22And forthwith Jesus obliged his disciples to go up into the boat, and to go before him over the water, till he dismissed the people.
23Et dimissa turba, ascendit in montem solus orare. Vespere autem facto solus erat ibi:
23And having dismissed the multitude, he went into a mountain alone to pray. And when it was evening, he was there alone.
24navicula autem in medio mari jactabatur fluctibus: erat enim contrarius ventus.
24But the boat in the midst of the sea was tossed with the waves: for the wind was contrary.
25Quarta enim vigilia noctis, venit ad eos ambulans super mare.
25And in the fourth watch of the night, he came to them walking upon the sea.
26Et videntes eum super mare ambulantem, turbati sunt, dicentes: Quia phantasma est. Et præ timore clamaverunt.
26And they seeing him walk upon the sea, were troubled, saying: It is an apparition. And they cried out for fear.
27Statimque Jesus locutus est eis, dicens: Habete fiduciam: ego sum, nolite timere.
27And immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying: Be of good heart: it is I, fear ye not.
28Respondens autem Petrus, dixit: Domine, si tu es, jube me ad te venire super aquas.
28And Peter making answer, said: Lord, if it be thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters.
29At ipse ait: Veni. Et descendens Petrus de navicula, ambulabat super aquam ut veniret ad Jesum.
29And he said: Come. And Peter going down out of the boat, walked upon the water to come to Jesus.
30Videns vero ventum validum, timuit: et cum cœpisset mergi, clamavit dicens: Domine, salvum me fac.
30But seeing the wind strong, he was afraid: and when he began to sink, he cried out, saying: Lord, save me.
31Et continuo Jesus extendens manum, apprehendit eum: et ait illi: Modicæ fidei, quare dubitasti?
31And immediately Jesus stretching forth his hand took hold of him, and said to him: O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?
32Et cum ascendissent in naviculam, cessavit ventus.
32And when they were come up into the boat, the wind ceased.
33Qui autem in navicula erant, venerunt, et adoraverunt eum, dicentes: Vere Filius Dei es.
33And they that were in the boat came and adored him, saying: Indeed thou art the Son of God.
34Et cum transfretassent, venerunt in terram Genesar.
34And having passed the water, they came into the country of Genesar.
35Et cum cognovissent eum viri loci illius, miserunt in universam regionem illam, et obtulerunt ei omnes male habentes:
35And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent into all that country, and brought to him all that were diseased.
36et rogabant eum ut vel fimbriam vestimenti ejus tangerent. Et quicumque tetigerunt, salvi facti sunt.
36And they besought him that they might touch but the hem of his garment. And as many as touched, were made whole.
