Matthew 14:13-36; Matthew 15; Matthew 16; Matthew 17:1-20

13 And when Jesus had heard this thing, he went from thence in a boat, into a desert place beside. And when the people had heard, they followed him on their feet from cities.

14 And Jesus went out, and saw a great people [And Jesus, going out, saw a great multitude], and had ruth on them, and he healed the sick men of them.

15 But when eventide was come, his disciples came to him, and said, The place is desert, and the time is now passed; let the people go into towns, to buy them(selves) meat. [Soothly the evening made, his disciples came nigh to him, saying, The place is desert, and the hour hath now passed; leave thou the companies, that they, going into castles, buy meats to them.]

16 Jesus said to them, They have not need to go; give ye them somewhat to eat. [+Forsooth Jesus said to them, They have no need to go; give ye to them to eat.]

17 They answered, We have not here, but five loaves and two fishes.

18 And he said to them, Bring ye them hither to me.

19 And when he had commanded the people to sit to meat on the hay, he took five loaves and two fishes, and he beheld into heaven, and blessed, and brake, and gave to his disciples; and the disciples gave to the people. [And when he had commanded the company to sit to the meat on the hay, five loaves and two fishes taken, he beholding into heaven, blessed, and brake, and gave loaves to his disciples; soothly the disciples gave to the companies.]

20 And all ate, and were fulfilled. And they took the remnants of broken gobbets, twelve baskets full. [And all ate, and were filled. And they took the reliefs of broken gobbets, twelve coffins full.]

21 And the number of men that ate was five thousand of men, without women and little children.

22 And at once [And anon] Jesus compelled the disciples to go up into a boat, and [to] go before him over the sea, while he let go the people [till that he left the companies].

23 And when the people was let go, he ascended alone into an hill to pray [+And the companies left, he ascended up into an hill alone to pray]. But when the evening was come, he was there alone.

24 And the boat in the middle of the sea was shogged with waves, for the wind was contrary. [Forsooth the boat in the midst of the sea was thrown with waves, for the wind was contrary.]

25 But in the fourth waking of the night, he came to them walking on the sea.

26 And they, seeing him walking on the sea, were disturbed, and said [were distroubled, saying], That it is a phantom; and for dread they cried.

27 And at once Jesus spake to them, and said [And anon Jesus spake to them, saying], Have ye trust, I am; do not ye dread.

28 And Peter answered, and said, Lord, if thou art, command me to come to thee on [upon] the waters.

29 And he said, Come thou. And Peter went down from the boat, and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.

30 But he saw the wind strong, and was afeared; and when he began to drown, he cried, and said [saying], Lord, make me safe.

31 And at once Jesus held forth his hand, and took Peter [And anon Jesus, holding forth his hand, caught him], and said to him, Thou of little faith, why hast thou doubted?

32 And when he had ascended into the boat, the wind ceased.

33 And they, that were in the boat, came, and worshipped him, and said [saying], Verily, thou art God's Son.

34 And when they had passed over the sea, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

35 And when men of that place had known him, they sent into all that country; and they brought to him all that had sicknesses [all having evil].

36 And they prayed him, that they should touch [namely] the hem of his clothing [the hem of his cloth]; and whoever touched were made safe.

1 Then the scribes and the Pharisees came to him from Jerusalem, and said, [Then scribes and Pharisees came nigh to him from Jerusalem, saying,]

2 Why break thy disciples the traditions of elder men [Why thy disciples break the traditions, either the teachings, of elder men]? for they wash not their hands, when they eat bread.

3 He answered, and said to them, Why [also] break ye the commandment of God for your tradition?

4 For God said, Honour thy father and thy mother [Honour thy father and mother], and he that curseth father or mother, die he by death.

5 But ye say, Whoever saith to father or mother [But ye say, Whoever shall say to the father or mother], Whatever gift is of me, it shall profit to thee;

6 and he hath not worshipped his father or his mother [and he shall not honour his father either mother]; and ye have made the commandment of God void for your tradition.

7 Hypocrites, Esaias, the prophet, prophesied well of you, and said [saying],

8 This people honoureth me with lips, but their heart is far from me;

9 and they worship me without cause [truly they worship me without cause], teaching the doctrines and the commandments of men.

10 And when the people were called together to him, he said to them, Hear ye, and understand ye. [+And the companies called together to him, he said to them, Hear, and understand.]

11 That thing that entereth into the mouth, defouleth not a man [Not that thing that entereth into the mouth, defouleth a man]; but that thing that cometh out of the mouth, defouleth a man.

12 Then his disciples came, and said to him, Thou knowest, that, if this word be heard, the Pharisees be offended? [Then his disciples coming nigh said to him, Knowest thou, that, this word heard, Pharisees be offended?]

13 And he answered, and said, Every planting, that my Father of heaven hath not planted [which my Father of heaven hath not planted], shall be drawn up by the root.

14 Suffer ye them; they be blind, and leaders of blind men. And if a blind man lead a blind man, both fall into the ditch [both fall down into the ditch].

15 Peter answered, and said to him, Expound to us this parable.

16 And he said, Yet be ye also without understanding/Yet ye be without understanding? [And he said, Yet also ye be without understanding?]

17 Understand ye not, that all thing that entereth into the mouth, goeth into the womb, and is sent out into the going away?

18 But those things that come forth from the mouth, go out from the heart [go out of the heart], and those things defoul the man.

19 For of the heart go out evil thoughts [For out of the heart cometh evil thoughts], manslayings, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witnessings, blasphemies.

20 These things it be that defoul a man; but to eat with hands not washed [soothly for to eat with hands unwashen], defouleth not a man.

21 And Jesus went out from thence, and went into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

22 And lo! a woman of Canaan went out of those coasts, and cried, and said to him [saying to him], Lord, the son of David, have mercy on me; my daughter is evil travailed of a fiend [my daughter is evil travailed of a devil].

23 And he answered not to her a word. And his disciples came, and prayed him, and said, Let go thou her, for she crieth after us [And his disciples coming to, prayed him, saying, Leave thou her, for she crieth after us].

24 [Forsooth] He answered, and said, I am not sent, but to the sheep of the house of Israel that have perished. [Forsooth he answering saith, I am not sent, no but to the sheep of the house of Israel that perished.]

25 And she came, and worshipped him, and said, Lord, help me. [But she came, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.]

26 Which answered, and said, It is not good to take the bread of children, and cast [it] to hounds.

27 And she said, Yes, Lord; for [the] whelps eat of the crumbs, that fall down from the board of their lords?.

28 Then Jesus answered, and said to her, A! woman [O! thou woman], thy faith is great; be it done to thee, as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.

29 And when Jesus had passed from thence, he came beside the sea of Galilee. And he went up into an hill, and sat there.

30 And much people came to him, and had with them dumb men and crooked [men], feeble and blind, and many others; and they casted down them at his feet. And he healed them, [And many companies came nigh to him, having with them dumb men and crooked men, feeble and blind, and many others; and they cast them down at his feet. And he healed them,]

31 so that the people wondered [so that the companies wondered], seeing dumb men speaking, and crooked [men] going, blind men seeing; and they magnified God of Israel.

32 And Jesus, when his disciples were called together, said to them, I have ruth of the people, for they have abided now three days with me, and have nothing to eat; and I will not let them go fasting, lest they fail in the way. [+Forsooth Jesus said to his disciples called together, I have ruth of the company, for now three days they dwell still with me, and they have nothing that they shall eat; and I will not leave them fasting, lest they fail in the way.]

33 And the disciples say to him, Whereof then so many loaves among us in desert, to fulfill so great a people [that we fill so great a company]?

34 And Jesus said to them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes. [+And Jesus saith to them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.]

35 And he commanded the people, to sit to meat on the earth. [And he commanded the company, that they should sit to the meat on the earth.]

36 And he took the seven loaves and five fishes, and did thankings, and brake them, and gave to his disciples; and the disciples gave to the people.

37 And all ate, and were fulfilled, and they took that that was left of remnants, seven baskets full. [And all ate, and were filled, and they took that that was over of the reliefs, seven baskets full.]

38 And they that ate were four thousand of men, without little children and women.

39 And when he had let go the people [And, the company left], he went up into a boat, and came into the coasts of Magdala.

1 And the Pharisees and the Sadducees came to him tempting [And Pharisees and Sadducees tempting him came nigh to him], and prayed him to show them a token from heaven.

2 And he answered, and said to them, When the eventide is come, ye say, It shall be clear, for heaven is ruddy; [+And he answering said to them, The evening made, ye say, It shall be clear, for the heaven is red, either ruddy;]

3 and the morrowtide, To day tempest [and the morrow, Made to day tempest], for heaven shineth heavily. Then ye know how to deem [wisely] the face of heaven, but ye be not able to know the tokens of times [but ye be not able to know the signs of times].

4 An evil generation and adulterous seeketh a token; and a token shall not be given to it, but the token of Jonas, the prophet. And when he had left them, he went forth [he went away].

5 And when his disciples came over the sea, they forgot to take loaves.

6 And he said to them, Behold ye, and beware of the sourdough of Pharisees and of Sadducees.

7 And they thought among them[selves], and said [saying], For we have not taken loaves.

8 But Jesus witting said to them, What think ye among you of little faith, for ye have not taken loaves?

9 Yet ye understand not, neither have mind of five loaves into five thousand of men, and how many baskets ye took [and how many coffins ye took]?

10 neither of seven loaves into four thousand of men, and how many baskets ye took?

11 Why understand ye not, for I said not to you of bread, Be ye ware of the sourdough of Pharisees and of Sadducees?

12 Then they understood, that he said not to beware of [the] sourdough of loaves, but of the teaching of Pharisees and of Sadducees.

13 And Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea of Philippi, and asked his disciples, and said [saying], Whom say men to be man's Son?

14 And they said, Some John Baptist; others Elias; and others Jeremy, or one of the prophets.

15 Jesus said to them [Jesus saith to them], But whom say ye me to be?

16 Simon Peter answered, and said, Thou art Christ, the Son of God living [Thou art Christ, the Son of quick God].

17 [Forsooth] Jesus answered, and said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona; for flesh and blood showed not to thee, but my Father that is in heavens.

18 And I say to thee, that thou art Peter, and on this stone I shall build my church, and the gates of hell shall not have power against it. [And I say to thee, for thou art Peter, and upon this stone I shall build my church, and the gates of hell shall not have might, or strength, against it.]

19 And to thee I shall give the keys of the kingdom of heavens; and whatever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound also in heavens; and whatever thou shalt unbind on earth, shall be unbound also in heavens.

20 Then he commanded to his disciples, that they should say to no man, that he was Jesus Christ.

21 From that time Jesus began to show to his disciples, that it behooved him to go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things, of the elder men, and of the scribes, and of princes of priests [of the elders, and scribes, and princes of priests]; and be slain, and the third day to rise again.

22 And Peter took him, and began to blame him, and said [saying], Far be it from thee, Lord; this shall not be to thee.

23 And he turned, and said to Peter, Satan, go thou after me; thou art a cause of stumbling to me; for thou savourest not those things that be of God, but those things that be of men. [The which, turned, said to Peter, Satan, go after me; thou art (an) offence to me; for thou savourest not, or understandest not, those things that be of God, but those things that be of men.]

24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any man will come after me, deny he himself, and take his cross, and follow me;

25 for he that will make his life safe, shall lose it; and he that shall lose his life for me, shall find it.

26 For what profiteth it to a man [Soothly what profiteth to a man], if he win all the world, and suffer impairing of his soul? or what (ex)changing shall a man give for his soul?

27 For man's Son shall come in the glory of his Father, with his angels, and then he shall yield to every man after his works.

28 Truly I say to you, there be some of them that stand here [there be some of men standing here], which shall not taste death, till they see man's Son coming in his kingdom.

1 And after six days Jesus took Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and led them aside into an high hill,

2 and was transfigured into another likeness before them [and was transfigured, or turned into another likeness, before them]. And his face shone as the sun; and his clothes were made white as snow.

3 And lo! Moses and Elias appeared to them, and spake with him. [And lo! Moses and Elias appeared to them, speaking with him.]

4 And Peter answered, and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good us to be here. If thou wilt, make we here three tabernacles; to thee one, to Moses one, and one to Elias.

5 Yet while he spake, lo! a bright cloud overshadowed them; and lo! a voice out of the cloud, that said, This is my dear-worthy Son, in whom I have well pleased to me; hear ye him.

6 And the disciples heard, and felled down [fell down] on their faces, and dreaded greatly.

7 And Jesus came, and touched them, and said to them, Rise up, and do not ye dread.

8 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw no man, but Jesus alone.

9 And as they came down of the hill, Jesus commanded to them, and said, Say ye to no man the vision, till man's Son rise again from death. [+And, they coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Say ye to no man the vision, till that man's Son rise again from dead.]

10 And his disciples asked him, and said, What then say the scribes, that it behooveth that Elias come first? [And his disciples asked him, saying, What therefore say scribes, that it behooveth Elias first come?]

11 [And] He answered, and said to them, [Forsooth] Elias shall come, and he shall restore all things.

12 And I say to you, that Elias is now come, and they knew him not, but they did in him whatever things they would; and so man's Son shall suffer of them.

13 Then the disciples understood, that he said to them of John the Baptist.

14 And when he came to the people [And when he came to the company], a man came to him, and felled [fell] down on his knees before him, and said [saying],

15 Lord, have mercy on my son; for he is lunatic, and suffereth evil, for oft times he falleth into the fire, and oft times into the water.

16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they might not heal him.

17 Jesus answered, and said, A! thou generation unbelieveful [unbelieveful, or out of the faith,] and wayward; how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bring ye him hither to me.

18 And Jesus blamed him, and the devil went out from him; and the child was healed from that hour.

19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privily, and said to him, Why might not we cast him out?

20 Jesus saith to them [Jesus said to them], For your unbelief. Truly I say to you, if ye have faith, as a corn of mustard seed, ye shall say to this hill, Pass thou hence [Pass thou from hence], and it shall pass; and nothing shall be impossible to you;
