1 S alió Jesús de allí y vino a su tierra, y lo seguían sus discípulos.

And he went forth thence, and came to his own country, and his disciples do follow him,

2 C uando llegó el sábado, comenzó a enseñar en la sinagoga; y muchos, oyéndolo, se admiraban y preguntaban: —¿De dónde saca éste estas cosas? ¿Y qué sabiduría es ésta que le es dada, y estos milagros que por sus manos son hechos?

and sabbath having come, he began in the synagogue to teach, and many hearing were astonished, saying, `Whence hath this one these things? and what the wisdom that was given to him, that also such mighty works through his hands are done?

3 ¿ No es éste el carpintero, hijo de María, hermano de Jacobo, de José, de Judas y de Simón? ¿No están también aquí con nosotros sus hermanas? Y se escandalizaban de él.

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us?' -- and they were being stumbled at him.

4 P ero Jesús les dijo: —No hay profeta sin honra sino en su propia tierra, entre sus parientes y en su casa.

And Jesus said to them -- `A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his kindred, and in his own house;'

5 N o pudo hacer allí ningún milagro, salvo que sanó a unos pocos enfermos poniendo sobre ellos las manos.

and he was not able there any mighty work to do, except on a few infirm people having put hands he did heal;

6 Y estaba asombrado de la incredulidad de ellos. Misión de los doce discípulos Y recorría las aldeas de alrededor, enseñando.

and he wondered because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages, in a circle, teaching,

7 D espués llamó a los doce y comenzó a enviarlos de dos en dos, y les dio autoridad sobre los espíritus impuros.

and he doth call near the twelve, and he began to send them forth two by two, and he was giving them power over the unclean spirits,

8 L es mandó que no llevaran nada para el camino, sino solamente bastón. Ni bolsa, ni pan, ni dinero en el cinto;

and he commanded them that they may take nothing for the way, except a staff only -- no scrip, no bread, no brass in the girdle,

9 s ino que calzaran sandalias y no llevaran dos túnicas.

but having been shod with sandals, and ye may not put on two coats.

10 Y añadió: —Dondequiera que entréis en una casa, posad en ella hasta que salgáis de aquel lugar.

And he said to them, `Whenever ye may enter into a house, there remain till ye may depart thence,

11 Y si en algún lugar no os reciben ni os oyen, salid de allí y sacudid el polvo que está debajo de vuestros pies, para testimonio a ellos. De cierto os digo que en el día del juicio será más tolerable el castigo para los de Sodoma y Gomorra que para aquella ciudad.

and as many as may not receive you, nor hear you, going out thence, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony to them; verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom or Gomorrah in a day of judgment than for that city.'

12 Y , saliendo, predicaban que los hombres se arrepintieran.

And having gone forth they were preaching that might reform,

13 Y echaban fuera muchos demonios, ungían con aceite a muchos enfermos y los sanaban. Muerte de Juan el Bautista

and many demons they were casting out, and they were anointing with oil many infirm, and they were healing.

14 O yó el rey Herodes la fama de Jesús, porque su nombre se había hecho notorio, y dijo: —Juan el Bautista ha resucitado de los muertos, y por eso actúan en él estos poderes.

And the king Herod heard, (for his name became public,) and he said -- `John the Baptist out of the dead was raised, and because of this the mighty powers are working in him.'

15 O tros decían: «Es Elías.» Y otros: «Es un profeta, como los profetas antiguos.»

Others said -- `It is Elijah,' and others said -- `It is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.'

16 A l oír esto, Herodes dijo: —Éste es Juan, el que yo decapité, que ha resucitado de los muertos.

And Herod having heard, said -- `He whom I did behead -- John -- this is he; he was raised out of the dead.'

17 E l mismo Herodes había enviado a prender a Juan, y lo había encadenado en la cárcel por causa de Herodías, mujer de Felipe, su hermano, pues la había tomado por mujer,

For Herod himself, having sent forth, did lay hold on John, and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he married her,

18 p orque Juan había dicho a Herodes: «No te está permitido tener la mujer de tu hermano.»

for John said to Herod -- `It is not lawful to thee to have the wife of thy brother;'

19 P or eso, Herodías lo acechaba y deseaba matarlo; pero no podía,

and Herodias was having a quarrel with him, and was willing to kill him, and was not able,

20 p orque Herodes temía a Juan, sabiendo que era un hombre justo y santo, y lo protegía. Cuando lo oía, se quedaba muy perplejo, pero lo escuchaba de buena gana.

for Herod was fearing John, knowing him a man righteous and holy, and was keeping watch over him, and having heard him, was doing many things, and hearing him gladly.

21 L legó el día oportuno cuando Herodes, en la fiesta de su cumpleaños, daba una cena a sus príncipes y tribunos y a los altos dignatarios de Galilea.

And a seasonable day having come, when Herod on his birthday was making a supper to his great men, and to the chiefs of thousands, and to the first men of Galilee,

22 E ntró la hija de Herodías y danzó, y agradó a Herodes y a los que estaban con él a la mesa. El rey entonces dijo a la muchacha: —Pídeme lo que quieras y yo te lo daré.

and the daughter of that Herodias having come in, and having danced, and having pleased Herod and those reclining (at meat) with him, the king said to the damsel, `Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give to thee,'

23 Y le juró: —Todo lo que me pidas te daré, hasta la mitad de mi reino.

and he sware to her -- `Whatever thou mayest ask me, I will give to thee -- unto the half of my kingdom.'

24 S aliendo ella, dijo a su madre: —¿Qué pediré? Y ésta le dijo: —La cabeza de Juan el Bautista.

And she, having gone forth, said to her mother, `What shall I ask for myself?' and she said, `The head of John the Baptist;'

25 E ntonces ella entró apresuradamente ante el rey, y pidió diciendo: —Quiero que ahora mismo me des en un plato la cabeza de Juan el Bautista.

and having come in immediately with haste unto the king, she asked, saying, `I will that thou mayest give me presently, upon a plate, the head of John the Baptist.'

26 E l rey se entristeció mucho, pero a causa del juramento y de los que estaban con él a la mesa, no quiso desairarla.

And the king -- made very sorrowful -- because of the oaths and of those reclining (at meat) with him, would not put her away,

27 E n seguida el rey, enviando a uno de la guardia, mandó que fuera traída la cabeza de Juan.

and immediately the king having sent a guardsman, did command his head to be brought,

28 E l guarda fue y lo decapitó en la cárcel, trajo su cabeza en un plato y la dio a la muchacha, y la muchacha la dio a su madre.

and he having gone, beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a plate, and did give it to the damsel, and the damsel did give it to her mother;

29 C uando oyeron esto sus discípulos, vinieron y tomaron su cuerpo, y lo pusieron en un sepulcro. Alimentación de los cinco mil

and having heard, his disciples came and took up his corpse, and laid it in the tomb.

30 E ntonces los apóstoles se reunieron con Jesús y le contaron todo lo que habían hecho y lo que habían enseñado.

And the apostles are gathered together unto Jesus, and they told him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,

31 É l les dijo: —Venid vosotros aparte, a un lugar desierto, y descansad un poco. (Eran muchos los que iban y venían, de manera que ni aun tenían tiempo para comer.)

and he said to them, `Come ye yourselves apart to a desert place, and rest a little,' for those coming and those going were many, and not even to eat had they opportunity,

32 Y se fueron solos en una barca a un lugar desierto.

and they went away to a desert place, in the boat, by themselves.

33 P ero muchos los vieron ir y lo reconocieron; entonces muchos fueron allá a pie desde las ciudades, y llegaron antes que ellos, y se juntaron a él.

And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognised him, and by land from all the cities they ran thither, and went before them, and came together to him,

34 S alió Jesús y vio una gran multitud, y tuvo compasión de ellos, porque eran como ovejas que no tenían pastor; y comenzó a enseñarles muchas cosas.

and having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, that they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began to teach many things.

35 C uando ya era muy avanzada la hora, sus discípulos se acercaron a él, y le dijeron: —El lugar es desierto y la hora ya muy avanzada.

And now the hour being advanced, his disciples having come near to him, say, -- `The place is desolate, and the hour is now advanced,

36 D espídelos para que vayan a los campos y aldeas de alrededor y compren pan, pues no tienen qué comer.

let them away, that, having gone away to the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy to themselves loaves, for what they may eat they have not.'

37 R espondiendo él, les dijo: —Dadles vosotros de comer. Ellos le dijeron: —¿Quieres que vayamos y compremos pan por doscientos denarios y les demos de comer?

And he answering said to them, `Give ye them to eat,' and they say to him, `Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denaries' worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?'

38 É l les preguntó: —¿Cuántos panes tenéis? Id a ver. Y al saberlo, dijeron: —Cinco, y dos peces.

And he saith to them, `How many loaves have ye? go and see;' and having known, they say, `Five, and two fishes.'

39 E ntonces les mandó que hicieran recostar a todos por grupos sobre la hierba verde.

And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon the green grass,

40 S e recostaron por grupos, de ciento en ciento, y de cincuenta en cincuenta.

and they sat down in squares, by hundreds, and by fifties.

41 E ntonces tomó los cinco panes y los dos peces y, levantando los ojos al cielo, bendijo, y partió los panes y dio a sus discípulos para que los pusieran delante; también repartió los dos peces entre todos.

And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and was giving to his disciples, that they may set before them, and the two fishes divided he to all,

42 C omieron todos y se saciaron.

and they did all eat, and were filled,

43 Y recogieron, de los pedazos y de lo que sobró de los peces, doce cestas llenas.

and they took up of broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full, and of the fishes,

44 L os que comieron eran cinco mil hombres. Jesús anda sobre el mar

and those eating of the loaves were about five thousand men.

45 E n seguida hizo a sus discípulos entrar en la barca e ir delante de él a Betsaida, en la otra ribera, entre tanto que él despedía a la multitud.

And immediately he constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before to the other side, unto Bethsaida, till he may let the multitude away,

46 Y después que los despidió, se fue al monte a orar.

and having taken leave of them, he went away to the mountain to pray.

47 A l llegar la noche, la barca estaba en medio del mar, y él solo en tierra.

And evening having come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land;

48 V iéndolos remar con gran esfuerzo, porque el viento les era contrario, cerca de la cuarta vigilia de la noche vino a ellos andando sobre el mar, y quería adelantárseles.

and he saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night he doth come to them walking on the sea, and wished to pass by them.

49 V iéndolo ellos andar sobre el mar, pensaron que era un fantasma y gritaron,

And they having seen him walking on the sea, thought to be an apparition, and cried out,

50 p orque todos lo veían, y se asustaron. Pero en seguida habló con ellos, y les dijo: —¡Tened ánimo! Soy yo, no temáis.

for they all saw him, and were troubled, and immediately he spake with them, and saith to them, `Take courage, I am, be not afraid.'

51 S ubió a la barca con ellos, y se calmó el viento. Ellos se asustaron mucho, y se maravillaban,

And he went up unto them to the boat, and the wind lulled, and greatly out of measure were they amazed in themselves, and were wondering,

52 p ues aún no habían entendido lo de los panes, por cuanto estaban endurecidos sus corazones. Jesús sana a los enfermos en Genesaret

for they understood not concerning the loaves, for their heart hath been hard.

53 T erminada la travesía, vinieron a tierra de Genesaret y arribaron a la orilla.

And having passed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,

54 A l salir ellos de la barca, en seguida la gente lo reconoció.

and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognised him,

55 M ientras recorrían toda la tierra de alrededor, comenzaron a traer de todas partes enfermos en camillas a donde oían que estaba.

having run about through all that region round about, they began upon the couches to carry about those ill, where they were hearing that he is,

56 Y dondequiera que entraba, ya fuera en aldeas, en ciudades o en campos, ponían en las calles a los que estaban enfermos y le rogaban que los dejara tocar siquiera el borde de su manto; y todos los que lo tocaban quedaban sanos.

and wherever he was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the market-places they were laying the infirm, and were calling upon him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of his garment, and as many as were touching him were saved.
