1 فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْجَمْعُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ مَا يَأْكُلُونَ، دَعَا يَسُوعُ تَلَامِيذَهُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ:
1 EN aquellos días, como hubo gran gentío, y no tenían qué comer, Jesús llamó á sus discípulos, y les dijo:
1 In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them,
2 «إِنِّي أُشْفِقُ عَلَى ٱلْجَمْعِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْآنَ لَهُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ يَمْكُثُونَ مَعِي وَلَيْسَ لَهُمْ مَا يَأْكُلُونَ.
2 Tengo compasión de la multitud, porque ya hace tres días que están conmigo, y no tienen qué comer:
2 “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
3 وَإِنْ صَرَفْتُهُمْ إِلَى بُيُوتِهِمْ صَائِمِينَ يُخَوِّرُونَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، لِأَنَّ قَوْمًا مِنْهُمْ جَاءُوا مِنْ بَعِيدٍ».
3 Y si los enviare en ayunas á sus casas, desmayarán en el camino; porque algunos de ellos han venido de lejos.
3 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”
4 فَأَجَابَهُ تَلَامِيذُهُ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يُشْبِعَ هَؤُلَاءِ خُبْزًا هُنَا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ؟».
4 Y sus discípulos le respondieron: ¿De dónde podrá alguien hartar á estos de pan aquí en el desierto?
4 His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”
5 فَسَأَلَهُمْ: «كَمْ عِنْدَكُمْ مِنَ ٱلْخُبْزِ؟». فَقَالُوا: «سَبْعَةٌ».
5 Y les preguntó: ¿Cuántos panes tenéis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete.
5 He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
6 فَأَمَرَ ٱلْجَمْعَ أَنْ يَتَّكِئُوا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَخَذَ ٱلسَّبْعَ خُبْزَاتٍ وَشَكَرَ وَكَسَرَ وَأَعْطَى تَلَامِيذَهُ لِيُقَدِّمُوا، فَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَمْعِ.
6 Entonces mandó á la multitud que se recostase en tierra; y tomando los siete panes, habiendo dado gracias, partió, y dió á sus discípulos que los pusiesen delante: y los pusieron delante á la multitud.
6 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
7 وَكَانَ مَعَهُمْ قَلِيلٌ مِنْ صِغَارِ ٱلسَّمَكِ، فَبَارَكَ وَقَالَ أَنْ يُقَدِّمُوا هَذِهِ أَيْضًا.
7 Tenían también unos pocos pececillos: y los bendijo, y mandó que también los pusiesen delante.
7 They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
8 فَأَكَلُوا وَشَبِعُوا. ثُمَّ رَفَعُوا فَضَلَاتِ ٱلْكِسَرِ: سَبْعَةَ سِلَالٍ.
8 Y comieron, y se hartaron: y levantaron de los pedazos que habían sobrado, siete espuertas.
8 They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
9 وَكَانَ ٱلْآكِلُونَ نَحْوَ أَرْبَعَةِ آلَافٍ. ثُمَّ صَرَفَهُمْ.
9 Y eran los que comieron, como cuatro mil: y los despidió.
9 Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
10 وَلِلْوَقْتِ دَخَلَ ٱلسَّفِينَةَ مَعَ تَلَامِيذِهِ وَجَاءَ إِلَى نَوَاحِي دَلْمَانُوثَةَ.
10 Y luego entrando en el barco con sus discípulos, vino á las partes de Dalmanutha.
10 Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
11 فَخَرَجَ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَٱبْتَدَأُوا يُحَاوِرُونَهُ طَالِبِينَ مِنْهُ آيَةً مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، لِكَيْ يُجَرِّبُوهُ.
11 Y vinieron los Fariseos, y comenzaron á altercar con él, pidiéndole señal del cielo, tentándole.
11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.
12 فَتَنَهَّدَ بِرُوحِهِ وَقَالَ: «لِمَاذَا يَطْلُبُ هَذَا ٱلْجِيلُ آيَةً؟ اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَنْ يُعْطَى هَذَا ٱلْجِيلُ آيَةً!».
12 Y gimiendo en su espíritu, dice: ¿Por qué pide señal esta generación? De cierto os digo que no se dará señal á esta generación.
12 He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
13 ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُمْ وَدَخَلَ أَيْضًا ٱلسَّفِينَةَ وَمَضَى إِلَى ٱلْعَبْرِ.
13 Y dejándolos, volvió á entrar en el barco, y se fué de la otra parte.
13 He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.
14 وَنَسُوا أَنْ يَأْخُذُوا خُبْزًا، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُمْ فِي ٱلسَّفِينَةِ إِلَّا رَغِيفٌ وَاحِدٌ.
14 Y se habían olvidado de tomar pan, y no tenían sino un pan consigo en el barco.
14 They forgot to take bread; and they didn’t have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
15 وَأَوْصَاهُمْ قَائِلًا: «ٱنْظُرُوا! وَتَحَرَّزُوا مِنْ خَمِيرِ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَخَمِيرِ هِيرُودُسَ».
15 Y les mandó, diciendo: Mirad, guardaos de la levadura de los Fariseos, y de la levadura de Herodes.
15 He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”
16 فَفَكَّرُوا قَائِلِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لَيْسَ عِنْدَنَا خُبْزٌ».
16 Y altercaban los unos con los otros diciendo: Pan no tenemos.
16 They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”
17 فَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا تُفَكِّرُونَ أَنْ لَيْسَ عِنْدَكُمْ خُبْزٌ؟ أَلَا تَشْعُرُونَ بَعْدُ وَلَا تَفْهَمُونَ؟ أَحَتَّى ٱلْآنَ قُلُوبُكُمْ غَلِيظَةٌ؟
17 Y como Jesús lo entendió, les dice: ¿Qué altercáis, porque no tenéis pan? ¿no consideráis ni entendéis? ¿aun tenéis endurecido vuestro corazón?
17 Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Don’t you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?
18 أَلَكُمْ أَعْيُنٌ وَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ، وَلَكُمْ آذَانٌ وَلَا تَسْمَعُونَ، وَلَا تَذْكُرُونَ؟
18 ¿Teniendo ojos no veis, y teniendo oídos no oís? ¿y no os acordáis?
18 Having eyes, don’t you see? Having ears, don’t you hear? Don’t you remember?
19 حِينَ كَسَّرْتُ ٱلْأَرْغِفَةَ ٱلْخَمْسَةَ لِلْخَمْسَةِ ٱلْآلَافِ، كَمْ قُفَّةً مَمْلُوَّةً كِسَرًا رَفَعْتُمْ؟». قَالُوا لَهُ: «ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ».
19 Cuando partí los cinco panes entre cinco mil, ¿cuántas espuertas llenas de los pedazos alzasteis? Y ellos dijeron: Doce.
19 When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”
20 «وَحِينَ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ لِلْأَرْبَعَةِ ٱلْآلَافِ، كَمْ سَلَّ كِسَرٍ مَمْلُوًّا رَفَعْتُمْ؟». قَالُوا: «سَبْعَةً».
20 Y cuando los siete panes entre cuatro mil, ¿cuántas espuertas llenas de los pedazos alzasteis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete.
20 “When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”
21 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «كَيْفَ لَا تَفْهَمُونَ؟».
21 Y les dijo: ¿Cómo aun no entendéis?
21 He asked them, “Don’t you understand yet?”
22 وَجَاءَ إِلَى بَيْتِ صَيْدَا، فَقَدَّمُوا إِلَيْهِ أَعْمَى وَطَلَبُوا إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَلْمِسَهُ،
22 Y vino á Bethsaida; y le traen un ciego, y le ruegan que le tocase.
22 He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.
23 فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ ٱلْأَعْمَى وَأَخْرَجَهُ إِلَى خَارِجِ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ، وَتَفَلَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ، وَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَأَلَهُ: هَلْ أَبْصَرَ شَيْئًا؟
23 Entonces, tomando la mano del ciego, le sacó fuera de la aldea; y escupiendo en sus ojos, y poniéndole las manos encima, le preguntó si veía algo.
23 He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
24 فَتَطَلَّعَ وَقَالَ: «أُبْصِرُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَشْجَارٍ يَمْشُونَ».
24 Y él mirando, dijo: Veo los hombres, pues veo que andan como árboles.
24 He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”
25 ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ أَيْضًا عَلَى عَيْنَيْهِ، وَجَعَلَهُ يَتَطَلَّعُ. فَعَادَ صَحِيحًا وَأَبْصَرَ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ جَلِيًّا.
25 Luego le puso otra vez las manos sobre sus ojos, y le hizo que mirase; y fué restablecido, y vió de lejos y claramente á todos.
25 Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.
26 فَأَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ قَائِلًا: «لَا تَدْخُلِ ٱلْقَرْيَةَ، وَلَا تَقُلْ لِأَحَدٍ فِي ٱلْقَرْيَةِ».
26 Y envióle á su casa, diciendo: No entres en la aldea, ni [lo] digas á nadie en la aldea.
26 He sent him away to his house, saying, “Don’t enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”
27 ثُمَّ خَرَجَ يَسُوعُ وَتَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى قُرَى قَيْصَرِيَّةِ فِيلُبُّسَ. وَفِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ سَأَلَ تَلَامِيذَهُ قَائِلًا لَهُمْ: «مَنْ يَقُولُ ٱلنَّاسُ إِنِّي أَنَا؟».
27 Y salió Jesús y sus discípulos por las aldeas de Cesarea de Filipo. Y en el camino preguntó á sus discípulos, diciéndoles: ¿Quién dicen los hombres que soy yo?
27 Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”
28 فَأَجَابُوا: «يُوحَنَّا ٱلْمَعْمَدَانُ. وَآخَرُونَ: إِيلِيَّا. وَآخَرُونَ: وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ».
28 Y ellos respondieron: Juan Bautista; y otros, Elías; y otros, Alguno de los profetas.
28 They told him, “John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”
29 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «وَأَنْتُمْ، مَنْ تَقُولُونَ إِنِّي أَنَا؟». فَأَجَابَ بُطْرُسُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنْتَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ!».
29 Entonces él les dice: Y vosotros, ¿quién decís que soy yo? Y respondiendo Pedro, le dice: Tú eres el Cristo.
29 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
30 فَٱنْتَهَرَهُمْ كَيْ لَا يَقُولُوا لِأَحَدٍ عَنْهُ.
30 Y les apercibió que no hablasen de él á ninguno.
30 He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
31 وَٱبْتَدَأَ يُعَلِّمُهُمْ أَنَّ ٱبْنَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ كَثِيرًا، وَيُرْفَضَ مِنَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ وَرُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْكَتَبَةِ، وَيُقْتَلَ، وَبَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَقُومُ.
31 Y comenzó á enseñarles, que convenía que el Hijo del hombre padeciese mucho, y ser reprobado de los ancianos, y de los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y de los escribas, y ser muerto, y resucitar después de tres días.
31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 وَقَالَ ٱلْقَوْلَ عَلَانِيَةً. فَأَخَذَهُ بُطْرُسُ إِلَيْهِ وَٱبْتَدَأَ يَنْتَهِرُهُ.
32 Y claramente decía esta palabra. Entonces Pedro le tomó, y le comenzó á reprender.
32 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.
33 فَٱلْتَفَتَ وَأَبْصَرَ تَلَامِيذَهُ، فَٱنْتَهَرَ بُطْرُسَ قَائِلًا: «ٱذْهَبْ عَنِّي يَا شَيْطَانُ! لِأَنَّكَ لَا تَهْتَمُّ بِمَا لِلهِ لَكِنْ بِمَا لِلنَّاسِ».
33 Y él, volviéndose y mirando á sus discípulos, riñó á Pedro, diciendo: Apártate de mí, Satanás; porque no sabes las cosas que son de Dios, sino las que son de los hombres.
33 But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”
34 وَدَعَا ٱلْجَمْعَ مَعَ تَلَامِيذِهِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ وَرَائِي فَلْيُنْكِرْ نَفْسَهُ وَيَحْمِلْ صَلِيبَهُ وَيَتْبَعْنِي.
34 Y llamando á la gente con sus discípulos, les dijo: Cualquiera que quisiere venir en pos de mí, niéguese á sí mismo, y tome su cruz, y sígame.
34 He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 فَإِنَّ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ نَفْسَهُ يُهْلِكُهَا، وَمَنْ يُهْلِكُ نَفْسَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِي وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْإِنْجِيلِ فَهُوَ يُخَلِّصُهَا.
35 Porque el que quisiere salvar su vida, la perderá; y el que perdiere su vida por causa de mí y del evangelio, la salvará.
35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
36 لِأَنَّهُ مَاذَا يَنْتَفِعُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ لَوْ رَبِحَ ٱلْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ وَخَسِرَ نَفْسَهُ؟
36 Porque ¿qué aprovechará al hombre, si granjeare todo el mundo, y pierde su alma?
36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 أَوْ مَاذَا يُعْطِي ٱلْإِنْسَانُ فِدَاءً عَنْ نَفْسِهِ؟
37 ¿O qué recompensa dará el hombre por su alma?
37 For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
38 لِأَنَّ مَنِ ٱسْتَحَى بِي وَبِكَلَامِي فِي هَذَا ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلْفَاسِقِ ٱلْخَاطِئِ، فَإِنَّ ٱبْنَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ يَسْتَحِي بِهِ مَتَى جَاءَ بِمَجْدِ أَبِيهِ مَعَ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ».
38 Porque el que se avergonzare de mí y de mis palabras en esta generación adulterina y pecadora, el Hijo del hombre se avergonzará también de él, cuando vendrá en la gloria de su Padre con los santos ángeles.
38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”

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).
In expounding to you the Holy Scriptures, I as it were break bread for you. Do ye in hunger receive it, and break forth with a fulness of phrase from the heart; and ye who are rich in your banquet, be not meagre in good works and deeds. What I deal out to you is not mine own.

… for the remission of sins be preached in His name among all nations." Now this is He who was born of Mary; for He says: "The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected, and crucified, and on the third day rise again." The Gospel, therefore, knew no other son of man but Him who was of Mary, …
Hard and grievous does that appear which the Lord hath enjoined, that "whosoever will come after Him, must deny himself." But what He enjoineth is not hard or grievous, who aideth us that what He enjoineth may be done.

But Mark saith, that when they were come unto Him, and were questioning with Him, "He sighed deeply in His spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign?" And yet surely their inquiry was deserving of anger and great displeasure; yet nevertheless the benevolent and provident One is not angry, but pities and bewails them as incurably …
