Herodías danzó delante de todos y agradó á Herodes.

7 Por lo que prometió con juramento darla toda lo que pidiere.

8 Y ella instruida de antemano por su madre dijó: Dame aquí en una fuente la cabeza de Juan Bautista.

9 Entonces el Rey se entristeció. Sin embargo por razon del juramento, y de los que estaban con él á la mesa, mandó que se le diese.

10 Y envió é hizo degollar á Juan en la carcel.

11 Y fué traida su cabeza en una fuente y dada á la muchacha, y la llevó á su madre.

12 Entonces vinieron sus discípulos y recogieron su cuerpo, y le enterraron, y fueron á dar la noticia á Jesus.

13 Y cuando lo oyó Jesus partióse de allí en un barco á un lugar desierto apartado. Cuando las gentes lo oyeron le siguieron á pie de las ciudades.

14 Y Jesus al salir vió una gran multitud de gente y tuvo compasion de ellos y curó á sus enfermos.

15 Y venida la tarde se llegaron á él sus discípulos y le dijeron. Este es un lugar desierto, y el tiempo es ya pasado: despacha á

- las gentes paraque vayan á las aldeas y se compren de comer.

16 Mas Jesus les dijó: no tienen necesidad de irse, dadles vosotros de comer.

17 Y ellos le respondieron: no tenemos aquí mas que cinco panes y dos peces.

18 Y él les dijó: traedmelos acá.

19 Y habiendo mandado á las gentes que se recostasen sobre la yerba, tomó los cinco panes y los

danced before them, and pleased Herod.

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

8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.

9 And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.

10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

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

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

13 When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.

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

15 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 victuals.

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

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

18 He said, Bring them hither to

me.

19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two dos peces y alzando los ojos al cielo, bendijo y partió los panes y los dió á sus discípulos y los discípulos á las gentes.

20 Y comieron todos, y hartaronse, y de los pedazos que sobraron alzaron doce cestos llenos.

21 Y los que comieron fueron como cinco mil hombres sin contar las mugeres y niños.

22 Y Jesus hizó entrar luego á sus discípulos en el barco é ir delante de él á la otra ribera del lago mientras que él despedía á las gentes.

23 Y cuando las hubo despedido subióse aparte á un monte á orar, y cuando vino la tarde estaba allí solo.

24 Mas el barco estaba en medio de la mar azotado de las olas porque el viento era contrario.

25 Y á la cuarta vela de la noche Jesus fué á ellos andando sobre la

mar.

26 Y al verle los discípulos andar sobre la mar se turbaron, y decían, es una fantasma; y llenos de miedo empezaron á dar voces.

27 Mas Jesus les habló luego diciendo: tened buen amino, yo soy: no tengais miedo.

28 Entonces respondióle Pedro y dijó: Señor si eres tú, manda que yo venga á tí sobre las aguas.

29 Y el dijó ven: y saliendo Pedro del barco andaba sobre las aguas para ír á Jesus.

30 Mas viendo que el viento era recio, se atemorizó y como empezase á hundirse, gritó diciendo: Señor salvame.

fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

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

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

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

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

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

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.

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

30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

31 And immediately Jesus stretch

hombre de poca fé! ¿porque dudaste?

32 Y luego que entraron en el barco cesó el viento.

33 Entonces los que estaban en

nezaret.

35 Y como le conocieron los hombres de aquel lugar enviaron por toda aquella tierra y le trageron todos los enfermos.

36 Y le rogaban que les permitiese tan solamente tocar la orla de su vestido, y cuantos la tocaron quedaron sanos.

CAPITULO XV.

ENTONCES llegaron a Jesus

Escribas y

Jerusalem diciendo:

2¿Porqué tus discípulos traspasan la tradicion de los ancianos, pues no se lavan las manos cuando comen pan?

3 Y él respondiendo les dijó, ¿ porqué vosotros traspasáis el mandamiento de Dios por vuestra tradicion?

4 Porque Dios mandó diciendo. Honra á tu padre, y á tu madre. Y el que maldijere al padre ó á la madre, muera de muerte.

5 Mas vosotros decís: Cualquíera que digere al padre ó á la madre: Don es todo lo que de mi parte te aprovechará:

6 Y no honrará á su padre ó su mádre: asi habéis invalidado el mandamiento de Dios por vuestra tradicion.

7 Hipócritas, bien profetizó de vosotros Isaias diciendo:

8 Este pueblo se acerca á mí con su boca, y me honra con los labios; pero su corazon está lejos de mí.

saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God. 34 And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

35 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 diseased;

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

CHAPTER XV.

THEN came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,

2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

10 Y llamando á sí á las gentes les dijo: oid, y entended.

11 No lo que entra en la boca ensucia al hombre, sino lo que sale de la boca, esto ensucia al hombre.

12 Entonces llegandose sus discípulos le dijeron ¿ sabes que los Phariseos se han escandalizado al oir este razonamiento?

13 Mas él respondiendo dijó: Τοda planta que no ha plantado mi Padre celestial será arrancada de raiz.

14 Dejadlos, ellos son guias ciegos de otros ciegos, y si un ciego guíare á otro ciego, ambos caerán en el hoyo.

15 Y respondiendo Pedro le dijó : Decláranos esta parábola.

16 Y Jesus le dijó: también estáis aún vosotros sin entendimiento?

17 No entendéis aún, que todo lo que entra en la boca va al vientre, y es echado en la cloaca?

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and un

derstand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.

16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?

18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the

man.

19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously

chala, porque viene tras de nosotros gritando.

24 Y él respondiendo dijó: no soy enviado sino á las ovejas perdidas de la casa de Israel.

25 Mas ella vinó y le adoró diciendo: Señor, socorredme.

26 Y él respondiendo le dijó: no es bien tomar el pan de los hijos y echarlo á los perrillos.

27 Y ella díjó: Es verdad Señor; pero los perrillos comen de las migajas que caen de la mesa de sus

señores.

28 Entonces respondió Jesus y le dijó: O muger, grande es tu fé, hágase contigo como tú quieres. Y en la hora misma su hija quedó curada.

29 Y habiendo Jesus salido de allí, vino junto al mar de Galilea, y subiendo á un monte, sentóse allí.

30 Y llegaronse á él muchas gentes, trayendo consigo cojos, mudos, ciegos, mancos, y otros muchos, y los echaron á los pies de Jesus y él los curó.

31 Por manera que las gentes se pasmaban viendo hablar los mudos, sanos los mancos, andar los cojos y ver los ciegos. Y glorificaban al Dios de Israel.

32 Jesus entonces llamando á sí á sus discípulos les dijó: tengo compasion de estas gentes, porque hace ya tres dias que no se apartan de mí, y no tienen que comer y no quiero despedirlos en ayunas, no sea que desfallezcan en el camino.

33 Y sus discípulos le dijeron: ¿De donde sacaremos nosotros pan bastante en este desierto para hartar á tan grande multitud?

34 Y Jesus les dijó ¿cuantos panes tenéis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete, y unos pocos pececillos.

24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.

27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.

28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the

way.

33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
