1 U to vreme dođe glas do Iroda četvorovlasnika o Isusu; 2 i reče slugama svojim: To je Jovan krstitelj; on ustade iz mrtvih, i zato čini čudesa. 3 Jer Irod uhvati Jovana, sveza ga i baci u tamnicu Irodijade radi žene Filipa brata svog. 4 Jer mu govoraše Jovan: Ne možeš ti nje imati. 5 I htede da ga ubije, ali se poboja naroda; jer ga držahu za proroka. 6 A kad beše dan rođenja Irodovog, igra kći Irodijadina pred njima i ugodi Irodu. 7 Zato i s kletvom obeća joj dati šta god zaište. 8 A ona naučena od matere svoje: Daj mi, reče, ovde na krugu glavu Jovana krstitelja. 9 I zabrinu se car; ali kletve radi i onih koji se gošćahu s njim, zapovedi joj dati. 10 I posla te posekoše Jovana u tamnici. 11 I donesoše glavu njegovu na krugu, i dadoše devojci, i odnese je materi svojoj. 12 I došavši učenici njegovi, uzeše telo njegovo i ukopaše ga; i dođoše Isusu te javiše. 13 I čuvši Isus, otide odande u lađi u pusto mesto nasamo. A kad to čuše ljudi, idoše za Njim pešice iz gradova. 14 I izašavši Isus vide mnogi narod, i sažali mu se za njih, i isceli bolesnike njihove. 15 A pred veče pristupiše k Njemu učenici Njegovi govoreći: Ovde je pusto mesto, a dockan je već; otpusti narod neka ide u sela da kupi sebi hrane. 16 A Isus reče im: Ne treba da idu; podajte im vi neka jedu. 17 A oni rekoše Mu: Nemamo ovde do samo pet hlebova i dve ribe. 18 A On reče: Donesite mi ih ovamo. 19 I zapovedi narodu da posedaju po travi; pa uze onih pet hlebova i dve ribe, i pogledavši na nebo blagoslovi, i prelomivši dade učenicima svojim, a učenici narodu. 20 I jedoše svi, i nasitiše se, i nakupiše komada što preteče dvanaest kotarica punih. 21 A onih što su jeli beše ljudi oko pet hiljada, osim žena i dece. 22 I odmah natera Isus učenike svoje da uđu u lađu i napred da idu na one strane dok On otpusti narod. 23 I odstupivši narod pope se na goru sam da se moli Bogu. I uveče beše onde sam. 24 A lađa beše nasred mora u nevolji od valova, jer beše protivan vetar. 25 A u četvrtu stražu noći otide k njima Isus idući po moru. 26 I videvši Ga učenici po moru gde ide, poplašiše se govoreći: To je utvara; i od straha povikaše. 27 A Isus odmah reče im govoreći: Ne bojte se; ja sam, ne plašite se. 28 A Petar odgovarajući reče: Gospode! Ako si Ti, reci mi da dođem k Tebi po vodi. 29 A On reče: Hodi. I izišavši iz lađe Petar iđaše po vodi da dođe k Isusu. 30 No videći vetar veliki uplaši se, i počevši se topiti, povika govoreći: Gospode, pomagaj! 31 I odmah Isus pruživši ruku uhvati Petra, i reče mu: Maloverni! Zašto se posumnja? 32 I kad uđoše u lađu, presta vetar. 33 A koji behu u lađi pristupiše i pokloniše Mu se govoreći: Vaistinu Ti si Sin Božji. 34 I prešavši dođoše u zemlju genisaretsku. 35 I poznavši Ga ljudi iz onog mesta, poslaše po svoj onoj okolini, i donesoše k Njemu sve bolesnike. 36 I moljahu Ga da se samo dotaknu skuta od Njegove haljine; i koji se dotakoše ozdraviše.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The lesson of the Gospel which we have just heard is a lesson of humility to us all, that we may see and know where we are, and whither we must tend and hasten. For that ship which carries the disciples, which was tossed in the waves by a contrary wind, is not without its meaning.
