1 Κατ' εκείνον τον καιρόν ήκουσεν Ηρώδης ο τετράρχης την φήμην του Ιησού
1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
1 Ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῷ καιρῷ ἤκουσεν Ἡρῴδης ὁ τετράρχης τὴν ἀκοὴν Ἰησοῦ
2 και είπε προς τους δούλους αυτού· Ούτος είναι Ιωάννης ο Βαπτιστής· αυτός ηγέρθη από των νεκρών, και διά τούτο ενεργούσιν αι δυνάμεις εν αυτώ.
2 and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”
2 καὶ εἶπε τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ· οὗτός ἐστιν Ἰωάννης ὁ βαπτιστής· αὐτὸς ἠγέρθη ἀπὸ τῶν νεκρῶν, καὶ διὰ τοῦτο αἱ δυνάμεις ἐνεργοῦσιν ἐν αὐτῷ.
3 Διότι ο Ηρώδης συλλαβών τον Ιωάννην έδεσεν αυτόν και έβαλεν εν φυλακή διά Ηρωδιάδα την γυναίκα Φιλίππου του αδελφού αυτού.
3 For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
3 ὁ γὰρ Ἡρῴδης κρατήσας τὸν Ἰωάννην ἔδησεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔθετο ἐν φυλακῇ διὰ Ἡρῳδιάδα τὴν γυναῖκα Φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ.
4 Διότι έλεγε προς αυτόν ο Ιωάννης· Δεν σοι είναι συγκεχωρημένον να έχης αυτήν.
4 For John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
4 ἔλεγε γὰρ αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰωάννης· οὐκ ἔξεστί σοι ἔχειν αὐτήν.
5 Και θέλων να θανατώση αυτόν εφοβήθη τον όχλον, διότι είχον αυτόν ως προφήτην.
5 When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
5 καὶ θέλων αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι ἐφοβήθη τὸν ὄχλον, ὅτι ὡς προφήτην αὐτὸν εἶχον.
6 Ότε δε ετελούντο τα γενέθλια του Ηρώδου, εχόρευσεν η θυγάτηρ της Ηρωδιάδος εν τω μέσω και ήρεσεν εις τον Ηρώδην·
6 But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
6 γενεσίων δὲ ἀγομένων τοῦ Ἡρῴδου ὠρχήσατο ἡ θυγάτηρ τῆς Ἡρῳδιάδος ἐν τῷ μέσῳ καὶ ἤρεσε τῷ Ἡρῴδῃ·
7 όθεν μεθ' όρκου ώμολόγησεν εις αυτήν να δώση ό,τι αν ζητήση.
7 Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
7 ὅθεν μεθ᾽ ὅρκου ὡμολόγησεν αὐτῇ δοῦναι ὃ ἐὰν αἰτήσηται.
8 Η δε, παρακινηθείσα υπό της μητρός αυτής, Δος μοι, λέγει, εδώ επί πίνακι την κεφαλήν Ιωάννου του Βαπτιστού.
8 She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptizer.”
8 ἡ δέ, προβιβασθεῖσα ὑπὸ τῆς μητρὸς αὐτῆς, δός μοι, φησίν, ὧδε ἐπὶ πίνακι τὴν κεφαλὴν Ἰωάννου τοῦ βαπτιστοῦ.
9 Και ελυπήθη ο βασιλεύς, διά τους όρκους όμως και τους συγκαθημένους προσέταξε να δοθή,
9 The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
9 καὶ ἐλυπήθη ὁ βασιλεύς, διὰ δὲ τοὺς ὅρκους καὶ τοὺς συνανακειμένους ἐκέλευσε δοθῆναι,
10 και πέμψας απεκεφάλισε τον Ιωάννην εν τη φυλακή.
10 and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.
10 καὶ πέμψας ἀπεκεφάλισε τὸν Ἰωάννην ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ.
11 Και εφέρθη η κεφαλή αυτού επί πίνακι και εδόθη εις το κοράσιον, και έφερεν αυτήν προς την μητέρα αυτής.
11 His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.
11 καὶ ἠνέχθη ἡ κεφαλὴ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πίνακι καὶ ἐδόθη τῷ κορασίῳ, καὶ ἤνεγκε τῇ μητρὶ αὐτῆς.
12 Και προσελθόντες οι μαθηταί αυτού εσήκωσαν το σώμα και έθαψαν αυτό, και ελθόντες απήγγειλαν τούτο εις τον Ιησούν.
12 His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus.
12 καὶ προσελθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἦραν τὸ σῶμα καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτό, καὶ ἐλθόντες ἀπήγγειλαν τῷ Ἰησοῦ.
13 Και ακούσας ο Ιησούς ανεχώρησεν εκείθεν εν πλοίω εις έρημον τόπον κατ' ιδίαν· και ακούσαντες οι όχλοι ηκολούθησαν αυτόν πεζοί από των πόλεων.
13 Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
13 Ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἀνεχώρησεν ἐκεῖθεν ἐν πλοίῳ εἰς ἔρημον τόπον κατ᾽ ἰδίαν· καὶ ἀκούσαντες οἱ ὄχλοι ἠκολούθησαν αὐτῷ πεζῇ ἀπὸ τῶν πόλεων.
14 Και ότε ο Ιησούς, είδε πολύν όχλον και εσπλαγχνίσθη δι' αυτούς και εθεράπευσε τους αρρώστους αυτών.
14 Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
14 Καὶ ἐξελθὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶδε πολὺν ὄχλον, καὶ ἐσπλαγχνίσθη ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐθεράπευσε τοὺς ἀρρώστους αὐτῶν.
15 Ότε δε έγεινεν εσπέρα, προσήλθον προς αυτόν οι μαθηταί αυτού, λέγοντες· Έρημος είναι ο τόπος και η ώρα ήδη παρήλθεν· απόλυσον τους όχλους, διά να υπάγωσιν εις τας κώμας και αγοράσωσιν εις εαυτούς τροφάς.
15 When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”
15 ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης προσῆλθον αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ λέγοντες· ἔρημός ἐστιν ὁ τόπος καὶ ἡ ὥρα ἤδη παρῆλθεν· ἀπόλυσον τοὺς ὄχλους, ἵνα ἀπελθόντες εἰς τὰς κώμας ἀγοράσωσιν ἑαυτοῖς βρώματα.
16 Ο δε Ιησούς είπε προς αυτούς· Δεν έχουσι χρείαν να υπάγωσι· δότε εις αυτούς σεις να φάγωσιν.
16 But Jesus said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
16 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν ἀπελθεῖν· δότε αὐτοῖς ὑμεῖς φαγεῖν.
17 Οι δε λέγουσι προς αυτόν· Δεν έχομεν εδώ ειμή πέντε άρτους και δύο οψάρια.
17 They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”
17 οἱ δὲ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ· οὐκ ἔχομεν ὧδε εἰ μὴ πέντε ἄρτους καὶ δύο ἰχθύας.
18 Ο δε είπε· Φέρετέ μοι αυτά εδώ.
18 He said, “Bring them here to me.”
18 ὁ δὲ εἶπε· φέρετέ μοι αὐτοὺς ὧδε.
19 Και προστάξας τους όχλους να καθήσωσιν επί τα χόρτα, και λαβών τους πέντε άρτους και τα δύο οψάρια, αναβλέψας εις τον ουρανόν ευλόγησε, και κόψας έδωκεν εις τους μαθητάς τους άρτους, οι δε μαθηταί εις τους όχλους.
19 He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
19 καὶ κελεύσας τοὺς ὄχλους ἀνακλιθῆναι ἐπὶ τοὺς χόρτους, λαβὼν τοὺς πέντε ἄρτους καὶ τοὺς δύο ἰχθύας, ἀναβλέψας εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν εὐλόγησε, καὶ κλάσας ἔδωκε τοῖς μαθηταῖς τοὺς ἄρτους, οἱ δὲ μαθηταὶ τοῖς ὄχλοις.
20 Και έφαγον πάντες και εχορτάσθησαν, και εσήκωσαν το περίσσευμα των κλασμάτων, δώδεκα κοφίνους πλήρεις.
20 They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
20 καὶ ἔφαγον πάντες καὶ ἐχορτάσθησαν, καὶ ἦραν τὸ περισσεῦον τῶν κλασμάτων δώδεκα κοφίνους πλήρεις.
21 οι δε τρώγοντες ήσαν έως πεντακισχίλιοι άνδρες, εκτός γυναικών και παιδίων.
21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
21 οἱ δὲ ἐσθίοντες ἦσαν ἄνδρες ὡσεὶ πεντακισχίλιοι χωρὶς γυναικῶν καὶ παιδίων.
22 Και ευθύς ηνάγκασεν ο Ιησούς τους μαθητάς αυτού να εμβώσιν εις το πλοίον και να υπάγωσι προ αυτού εις το πέραν, εωσού απολύση τους όχλους.
22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
22 Καὶ εὐθέως ἠνάγκασεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἐμβῆναι εἰς τὸ πλοῖον καὶ προάγειν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ πέραν, ἕως οὗ ἀπολύσῃ τοὺς ὄχλους.
23 Και αφού απέλυσε τους όχλους, ανέβη εις το όρος κατ' ιδίαν διά να προσευχηθή. Και ότε έγεινεν εσπέρα, ήτο μόνος εκεί.
23 After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
23 καὶ ἀπολύσας τοὺς ὄχλους ἀνέβη εἰς τὸ ὄρος κατ᾽ ἰδίαν προσεύξασθαι. ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης μόνος ἦν ἐκεῖ.
24 Το δε πλοίον ήτο ήδη εν τω μέσω της θαλάσσης, βασανιζόμενον υπό των κυμάτων· διότι ήτο εναντίος ο άνεμος.
24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
24 τὸ δὲ πλοῖον ἤδη μέσον τῆς θαλάσσης ἦν, βασανιζόμενον ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων· ἦν γὰρ ἐναντίος ὁ ἄνεμος.
25 Εν δε τη τετάρτη φυλακή της νυκτός υπήγε προς αυτούς ο Ιησούς, περιπατών επί την θάλασσαν.
25 In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.
25 τετάρτῃ δὲ φυλακῇ τῆς νυκτὸς ἀπῆλθε πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁ Ἰησοῦς περιπατῶν ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης.
26 Και ιδόντες αυτόν οι μαθηταί επί την θάλασσαν περιπατούντα, εταράχθησαν, λέγοντες ότι φάντασμα είναι, και από του φόβου έκραξαν.
26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.
26 καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν οἱ μαθηταὶ ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν περιπατοῦντα ἐταράχθησαν λέγοντες ὅτι φάντασμά ἐστι, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ φόβου ἔκραξαν.
27 Ευθύς δε ελάλησε προς αυτούς ο Ιησούς λέγων· Θαρσείτε, εγώ είμαι· μη φοβείσθε.
27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
27 εὐθέως δὲ ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς λέγων· θαρσεῖτε, ἐγώ εἰμι· μὴ φοβεῖσθε.
28 Αποκριθείς δε προς αυτόν ο Πέτρος είπε· Κύριε, εάν ήσαι συ, πρόσταξόν με να έλθω προς σε επί τα ύδατα.
28 Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”
28 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος εἶπε· Κύριε, εἰ σὺ εἶ, κέλευσόν με πρός σε ἐλθεῖν ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα.
29 Ο δε είπεν, Ελθέ. Και καταβάς από του πλοίου ο Πέτρος περιεπάτησεν επί τα ύδατα, διά να έλθη προς τον Ιησούν.
29 He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.
29 ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ἐλθέ. καὶ καταβὰς ἀπὸ τοῦ πλοίου ὁ Πέτρος περιεπάτησεν ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα ἐλθεῖν πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν.
30 Βλέπων όμως τον άνεμον δυνατόν εφοβήθη, και αρχίσας να καταποντίζηται, έκραξε λέγων· Κύριε, σώσον με.
30 But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
30 βλέπων δὲ τὸν ἄνεμον ἰσχυρὸν ἐφοβήθη, καὶ ἀρξάμενος καταποντίζεσθαι ἔκραξε λέγων· Κύριε, σῶσόν με.
31 Και ευθύς ο Ιησούς εκτείνας την χείρα επίασεν αυτόν και λέγει προς αυτόν· Ολιγόπιστε, εις τι εδίστασας;
31 Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”
31 εὐθέως δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα ἐπελάβετο αὐτοῦ καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· ὀλιγόπιστε! εἰς τί ἐδίστασας;
32 Και αφού εισήλθον εις το πλοίον, έπαυσεν ο άνεμος·
32 When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
32 καὶ ἐμβάντων αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον ἐκόπασεν ὁ ἄνεμος·
33 οι δε εν τω πλοίω ελθόντες προσεκύνησαν αυτόν, λέγοντες· Αληθώς Θεού Υιός είσαι.
33 Those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”
33 οἱ δὲ ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ ἐλθόντες προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ λέγοντες· ἀληθῶς Θεοῦ υἱὸς εἶ.
34 Και διαπεράσαντες ήλθον εις την γην Γεννησαρέτ.
34 When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
34 Καὶ διαπεράσαντες ἦλθον εἰς τὴν γῆν Γεννησαρέτ.
35 Και γνωρίσαντες αυτόν οι άνθρωποι του τόπου εκείνου, απέστειλαν εις όλην την περίχωρον εκείνην και έφεραν προς αυτόν πάντας τους πάσχοντας,
35 When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;
35 καὶ ἐπιγνόντες αὐτὸν οἱ ἄνδρες τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου ἀπέστειλαν εἰς ὅλην τὴν περίχωρον ἐκείνην, καὶ προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ πάντας τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας,
36 και παρεκάλουν αυτόν να εγγίσωσι μόνον το άκρον του ιματίου αυτού· και όσοι ήγγισαν ιατρεύθησαν.
36 and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
36 καὶ παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν ἵνα κἂν μόνον ἅψωνται τοῦ κρασπέδου τοῦ ἱματίου αὐτοῦ· καὶ ὅσοι ἥψαντο διεσώθησαν.

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.

See Him on every occasion "departing," For not by His appearance only, but by His actions He would have this confirmed, because He knew the devil's craft, and that he would leave nothing undone to destroy this doctrine.

Soter is a name of five letters; Pater, too, contains five letters; Agape (love), too, consists of five letters; and our Lord, after blessing the five loaves, fed with them five thousand men.
Nevertheless after He was come up into the ship, they who were being borne in her, came saying, "Of a truth Thou art the Son of God." But before this plain discovery of Himself they were troubled, saying, "It is a phantom." But He coming up into the ship took away the fluctuation of mind from their hearts, when they …
