1 ¶ En aquel tiempo Herodes el tetrarca oyó la fama de Jesús,

¶ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus

2 Y dijo a sus criados: Este es Juan el Bautista; él ha resucitado de los muertos, y por eso virtudes obran en él.

and said unto his slaves, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.

3 P orque Herodes había prendido a Juan, y le había aprisionado y puesto en la cárcel, por causa de Herodías, mujer de Felipe su hermano;

For Herod had laid hold on John and bound him and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.

4 p orque Juan le decía: No te es lícito tenerla.

For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

5 Y quería matarle, mas temía al pueblo; porque le tenían por profeta.

And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude because they counted him as a prophet.

6 M as celebrándose el día del nacimiento de Herodes, la hija de Herodías danzó en medio, y agradó a Herodes.

But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.

7 Y prometió él con juramento darle todo lo que pidiera.

Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.

8 Y ella, instruida primero por su madre, dijo: Dame aquí en un plato la cabeza de Juan el Bautista.

And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John the Baptist’s head in a platter.

9 E ntonces el rey se entristeció; mas por el juramento, y por los que estaban juntamente a la mesa, mandó que se le diera.

And the king was sorry; nevertheless because of the oath and of those who sat with him at the table, he commanded it to be given her.

10 Y ordenó degollar a Juan en la cárcel.

And he sent and beheaded John in the prison.

11 Y fue traída su cabeza en un plato y dada a la muchacha; y ella la presentó a su madre.

And his head was brought in a platter and given to the damsel, and she brought it to her mother.

12 E ntonces llegaron sus discípulos, y tomaron el cuerpo, y lo enterraron; y fueron, y dieron las nuevas a Jesús.

And his disciples came and took up the body and buried it and went and told Jesus.

13 ¶ Oyéndolo Jesús, se apartó de allí en un barco a un lugar desierto, apartado; y cuando la multitud lo oyó, le siguió a pie desde las ciudades.

¶ When Jesus heard of it, he departed from there by ship into a desert place apart; and when the people had heard of it, they followed him on foot out of the cities.

14 Y saliendo Jesús, vio una gran multitud, y tuvo misericordia de ellos, y sanó a los que de ellos había enfermos.

And Jesus went forth and saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

15 Y cuando fue la tarde del día, se acercaron a él sus discípulos, diciendo: El lugar es desierto, y el tiempo es ya pasado; despide la multitud, para que se vayan por las aldeas, y compren para sí de comer.

And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.

16 M as Jesús les dijo: No tienen necesidad de irse; dadles vosotros de comer.

But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

17 Y ellos dijeron: No tenemos aquí sino cinco panes y dos peces.

And they said unto him, We have here but five loaves and two fishes.

18 E l les dijo: Traédmelos acá.

He said, Bring them here to me.

19 Y mandando a la multitud recostarse sobre la hierba, tomando los cinco panes y los dos peces, alzando los ojos al cielo, bendijo, y partiendo los panes los dio a los discípulos, y los discípulos a la multitud.

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass and took the five loaves and the two fishes; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

20 Y comieron todos, y se saciaron; y alzaron lo que sobró de los pedazos, doce cestas llenas.

And they all ate and were filled, and they took up of the fragments that remained, twelve baskets full.

21 Y los que comieron fueron como cinco mil varones, sin contar las mujeres y los niños.

And those that had eaten were about five thousand men besides women and children.

22 ¶ Luego Jesús hizo a sus discípulos entrar en un barco, e ir delante de él al otro lado del lago, entre tanto que él despedía a la multitud.

¶ And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship and to go before him unto the other side while he sent the multitude away.

23 Y despedida la multitud, subió al monte, apartado, a orar; y cuando llegó la tarde del día, estaba allí solo.

And when he had sent the multitude away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray; and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

24 Y ya el barco estaba en medio del mar, atormentado de las ondas; porque el viento era contrario.

But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves, for the wind was contrary.

25 M as a la cuarta vela de la noche, Jesús fue a ellos andando sobre el mar.

And in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went unto them, walking upon the sea.

26 Y los discípulos, viéndole andar sobre el mar, se turbaron, diciendo: Fantasma es. Y dieron voces de miedo.

And when the disciples saw him walking upon the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost; and they cried out for fear.

27 P ero enseguida Jesús les habló, diciendo: Confiad, YO SOY; no tengáis miedo.

But straightway Jesus spoke unto them, saying, Trust that I AM; be not afraid.

28 E ntonces le respondió Pedro, y dijo: Señor, si tú eres, manda que yo vaya a ti sobre las aguas.

Then Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me to come unto thee upon the water.

29 Y él dijo: Ven. Y descendiendo Pedro del barco, andaba sobre las aguas para ir a Jesús.

And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked upon the water to go to Jesus.

30 P ero viendo el viento fuerte, tuvo miedo; y comenzándose a hundir, dio voces, diciendo: Señor, sálvame.

But seeing that the wind was strong, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.

31 L uego Jesús, extendiendo la mano, asió de él, y le dijo: Oh hombre de poca fe, ¿por qué dudaste?

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him and said unto him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?

32 Y cuando ellos entraron en el barco, el viento reposó.

And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

33 E ntonces los que estaban en el barco, vinieron y le adoraron, diciendo: Verdaderamente eres Hijo de Dios.

Then those that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Truly thou art the Son of God.

34 ¶ Y llegando al otro lado, vinieron a la tierra de Genesaret.

¶ And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

35 C uando le conocieron los varones de aquel lugar, enviaron por toda aquella tierra alrededor, y trajeron a él todos los enfermos;

And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about and brought unto him all that were sick

36 y le rogaban que les dejara tocar solamente el borde de su manto; y todos los que le tocaron, fueron salvos.

and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment, and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
