Καί And λυπηθείς having been grieved ὁ the βασιλεύς king, διά on account of τούς the ὅρκους oaths καί and τούς those συνανακειμένους reclining with [him], ἐκέλευσεν he commanded [it] δοθῆναι, to be given. καί And πέμψας he having sent, ἀπεκεφάλισεν beheaded τόν - Ἰωάννην John ἐν in τῇ the φυλακῇ. prison. Καί And ἠνέχθη was brought ἡ the κεφαλή head αὐτοῦ of him ἐπί on πίνακι a platter, καί and ἐδόθη was given τῷ to the κορασίῳ, girl, καί and ἤνεγκεν she brought [it] τῇ to μητρί [the] mother αὐτῆς. of her. καί And προσελθόντες having come, οἱ the μαθηταί disciples αὐτοῦ of him ἦραν took τό the πτῶμα body, καί and ἔθαψαν buried αὐτόν it; καί and ἐλθόντες having come, ἀπήγγειλαν they told τῷ - Ἰησοῦ.

Ὀψίας Evening δέ now γενομένης having come, προσῆλθον came αὐτῷ to Him οἱ the μαθηταί disciples, λέγοντες· saying, Ἔρημος Desolate ἐστίν is ὁ this τόπος place, καί and ἡ the ὥρα time ἤδη already παρῆλθεν· is gone by. ἀπόλυσον Dismiss τούς the ὄχλους, crowds, ἵνα that ἀπελθόντες having gone εἰς into τάς the κώμας villages, ἀγοράσωσιν they might buy ἑαυτοῖς for themselves βρώματα. food. ὁ - δέ And Ἰησοῦς Jesus εἶπεν said αὐτοῖς· to them, οὐ No χρείαν need ἔχουσιν they have ἀπελθεῖν, to go away. δότε Give αὐτοῖς to them ὑμεῖς you φαγεῖν. to eat. οἱ - δέ And λέγουσιν they say αὐτῷ· to Him, οὐκ Not ἔχομεν we have ὧδε here, εἰ if μή not πέντε five ἄρτους loaves καί and δύο two ἰχθύας. fish. ὁ - δέ And εἶπεν· He said, Φέρετε Bring μοι to Me ὧδε here αὐτούς. them. καί And κελεύσας having commanded τούς the ὄχλους crowds ἀνακλιθῆναι to sit down ἐπί on τοῦ the χόρτου, grass, λαβών having taken τούς the πέντε five ἄρτους loaves καί and τούς the δύο two ἰχθύας, fish, ἀναβλέψας having looked up εἰς to τόν - οὐρανόν heaven, εὐλόγησεν He spoke a blessing; καί and κλάσας having broken, ἔδωκεν He gave τοῖς to the μαθηταῖς disciples τούς the ἄρτους, loaves, οἱ - δέ and μαθηταί the disciples τοῖς to the ὄχλοις. crowds. Καί And ἔφαγον ate πάντες all καί and ἐχορτάσθησαν, were satisfied; καί and ἦραν they took up τό that περισσεῦον being over and above τῶν of the κλασμάτων fragments, δώδεκα twelve κοφίνους hand-baskets πλήρεις. full. οἱ Those δέ then ἐσθίοντες eating ἦσαν were ἄνδρες men ὡσεί about πεντακισχίλιοι five thousand, χωρίς besides γυναικῶν women καί and παιδίων. children.

Εὐθύς Immediately δέ now ἐλάλησεν spoke ὁ - Ἰησοῦς Jesus αὐτοῖς to them, λέγων· saying, Θαρσεῖτε, Take courage! ἐγώ I εἰμί· it is, μή not φοβεῖσθε. fear. Ἀποκριθείς Answering δέ now αὐτῷ to Him, ὁ - Πέτρος Peter εἶπεν· said, Κύριε, Lord, εἰ if σύ You εἶ, [it] is, κέλευσον command με me ἐλθεῖν to come πρός to σέ You ἐπί upon τά the ὕδατα. waters. ὁ - δέ And εἶπεν· He said, Ἐλθέ.
