1Et egressus inde,And departing from there,abiit in patriam suam:he went away to his own country;et sequebantur eum discipuli sui:and his disciples followed him.

2et facto sabbato cœpit in synagoga docere:And when the Sabbath arrived, he began to teach in the synagogue.et multi audientes admirabantur in doctrina ejus,And many, upon hearing him, were amazed at his doctrine,dicentes: Unde huic hæc omnia?saying: “Where did this one get all these things?”et quæ est sapientia,and, “What is this wisdom,quæ data est illi,which has been given to him?”et virtutes tales,and, “Such powerful deeds,quæ per manus ejus efficiuntur?which are wrought by his hands!”

3Nonne hic est faber,“Is this not the carpenter,filius Mariæ,the son of Mary,frater Jacobi,the brother of James,et Joseph,and Joseph,et Judæ,and Jude,et Simonis?and Simon?nonne et sorores ejus hic nobiscum sunt?Are not his sisters also here with us?”Et scandalizabantur in illo.And they took great offense at him.

4Et dicebat illis Jesus:And Jesus said to them,Quia non est propheta sine honore nisi in patria sua,“A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country,et in domo sua,and in his own house,et in cognatione sua.and among his own kindred.”

5Et non poterat ibi virtutem ullam facere,And he was not able to perform any miracles there,nisi paucos infirmos impositis manibus curavit:except that he cured a few of the infirm by laying his hands on them.

6et mirabatur propter incredulitatem eorum,And he wondered, because of their unbelief,et circuibat castella in circuitu docens.and he traveled around in the villages, teaching.

7Et vocavit duodecim:And he called the twelve.et cœpit eos mittere binos,And he began to send them out in twos,et dabat illis potestatem spirituum immundorum.and he gave them authority over unclean spirits.

8Et præcepit eis ne quid tollerent in via,And he instructed them not to take anything for the journey,nisi virgam tantum:except a staff:non peram,no traveling bag,non panem,no bread,neque in zona æs,and no money belt,

9sed calceatos sandaliis,but to wear sandals,et ne induerentur duabus tunicis.and not to wear two tunics.

10Et dicebat eis:And he said to them:Quocumque introieritis in domum,“Whenever you have entered into a house,illic manete donec exeatis inde:stay there until you depart from that place.

11et quicumque non receperint vos,And whoever will neither receive you,nec audierint vos,nor listen to you,exeuntes inde,as you go away from there,excutite pulverem de pedibus vestris in testimonium illis.shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”

12Et exeuntes prædicabant ut pœnitentiam agerent:And going out, they were preaching, so that people would repent.

13et dæmonia multa ejiciebant,And they cast out many demons,et ungebant oleo multos ægros,and they anointed many of the sick with oilet sanabant.and healed them.

14Et audivit rex Herodes (manifestum enim factum est nomen ejus), et dicebat:And king Herod heard of it, (for his name had become well-known) and he said:Quia Joannes Baptista resurrexit a mortuis:“John the Baptist has risen again from the dead,et propterea virtutes operantur in illo.and because of this, miracles are at work in him.”

15Alii autem dicebant:But others were saying,Quia Elias est;“Because it is Elijah.”alii vero dicebant:Still others were saying,Quia propheta est,“Because he is a prophet,quasi unus ex prophetis.like one of the prophets.”

16Quo audito Herodes ait:When Herod had heard it, he said,Quem ego decollavi Joannem, hic a mortuis resurrexit.“John whom I beheaded, the same has risen again from the dead.”

17Ipse enim Herodes misit, ac tenuit Joannem,For Herod himself had sent to capture John,et vinxit eum in carcere propter Herodiadem uxorem Philippi fratris sui,and had chained him in prison, because of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip;quia duxerat eam.for he had married her.

18Dicebat enim Joannes Herodi:For John was saying to Herod,Non licet tibi habere uxorem fratris tui.“It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”

19Herodias autem insidiabatur illi:Now Herodias was devising treachery against him;et volebat occidere eum,and she wanted to kill him,nec poterat.but she was unable.

20Herodes enim metuebat Joannem,For Herod was apprehensive of John,sciens eum virum justum et sanctum:knowing him to be a just and holy man,et custodiebat eum,and so he guarded him.et audito eo multa faciebat,And he heard that he was accomplishing many things,et libenter eum audiebat.and so he listened to him willingly.

21Et cum dies opportunus accidisset,And when an opportune time had arrived,Herodes natalis sui cœnam fecit principibus,Herod held a feast on his birthday, with the leaders,et tribunis,and the tribunes,et primis Galilææ:and the first rulers of Galilee.

22cumque introisset filia ipsius Herodiadis,And when the daughter of the same Herodias had entered,et saltasset,and danced,et placuisset Herodi,and pleased Herod,simulque recumbentibus,along with those who were at table with him,rex ait puellæ:the king said to the girl,Pete a me quod vis,“Request from me whatever you want,et dabo tibi:and I will give it to you.”

23et juravit illi:And he swore to her,Quia quidquid petieris dabo tibi,“Anything that you request, I will give to you,licet dimidium regni mei.even up to half my kingdom.”

24Quæ cum exisset,And when she had gone out,dixit matri suæ:she said to her mother,Quid petam?“What shall I request?”At illa dixit:But her mother said,Caput Joannis Baptistæ.“The head of John the Baptist.”

25Cumque introisset statim cum festinatione ad regem,And immediately, when she had entered with haste to the king,petivit dicens:she petitioned him,Volo ut protinus des mihi in disco caput Joannis Baptistæ.saying: “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”

26Et contristatus est rex:And the king was greatly saddened.propter jusjurandum,But because of his oath,et propter simul discumbentes,and because of those who were sitting with him at table,noluit eam contristare:he was not willing to disappoint her.

27sed misso spiculatore præcepit afferri caput ejus in disco. Et decollavit eum in carcere,So, having sent an executioner, he instructed that his head be brought on a platter.

28et attulit caput ejus in disco:And he beheaded him in prison, and he brought his head on a platter.et dedit illud puellæ,And he gave it to the girl,et puella dedit matri suæ.and the girl gave it her mother.

29Quo audito,When his disciples heard about it,discipuli ejus venerunt,they cameet tulerunt corpus ejus:and took his body,et posuerunt illud in monumento.and they placed it in a tomb.

30Et convenientes Apostoli ad Jesum,And the Apostles,renuntiaverunt ei omnia quæ egerant,returning to Jesus,et docuerant.reported to him everything that they had done and taught.

31Et ait illis:And he said to them,Venite seorsum in desertum locum,“Go out alone,et requiescite pusillum.into a deserted place,Erant enim qui veniebantand rest for a little while.”et redibant multi:For there were so many who were coming and going,et nec spatium manducandi habebant.that they did not even have time to eat.

32Et ascendentes in navim,And climbing into a boat,abierunt in desertum locum seorsum.they went away to a deserted place alone.

33Et viderunt eos abeuntes,And they saw them going away,et cognoverunt multi:and many knew about it.et pedestres de omnibus civitatibus concurrerunt illuc,And together they ran by foot from all the cities,et prævenerunt eos.and they arrived before them.

34Et exiens vidit turbam multam Jesus:And Jesus, going out, saw a great multitude.et misertus est super eos,And he took pity on them,quia erant sicut oves non habentes pastorem, et cœpit docere multa.because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.

35Et cum jam hora multa fieret,And when many hours had now passed,accesserunt discipuli ejus,his disciples drew near to him,dicentes:saying:Desertus est locus hic,“This is a deserted place,et jam hora præteriit:and the hour is now late.

36dimitte illos,Send them away,ut euntes in proximas villas et vicos,so that by going out to nearby villagesemant sibi cibos,and towns,quos manducent.they might buy provisions for themselves to eat.”

37Et respondens ait illis:And responding, he said to them,Date illis vos manducare.“Give them something to eat yourselves.”Et dixerunt ei:And they said to him,Euntes emamus ducentis denariis panes,“Let us go out and buy bread for two hundred denarii,et dabimus illis manducare.and then we will give them something to eat.”

38Et dicit eis:And he said to them:Quot panes habetis?“How many loaves do you have?ite,Goet videte.and see.”Et cum cognovissent,And when they had found out,dicunt:they said,Quinque,“Five,et duos pisces.and two fish.”

39Et præcepit illis ut accumbere facerent omnes secundum contubernia super viride fœnum.And he instructed them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.

40Et discubuerunt in partes per centenos et quinquagenos.And they sat down in divisions by hundreds and by fifties.

41Et acceptis quinque panibus et duobus piscibus,And having received the five loavesintuens in cælum,and the two fish,benedixit,gazing up to heaven,et fregit panes,he blessedet dedit discipulis suis,and broke the bread,ut ponerent ante eos:and he gave it to his disciples to set before them.et duos pisces divisit omnibus.And the two fish he divided among them all.

42Et manducaverunt omnes,And they all ateet saturati sunt.and were satisfied.

43Et sustulerunt reliquias,And they brought together the remainder:fragmentorum duodecim cophinos plenos,twelve baskets full of fragmentset de piscibus.and of fish.

44Erant autem qui manducaverunt quinque millia virorum.Now those who ate were five thousand men.

45Et statim coëgit discipulos suos ascendere navim,And without delay he urged his disciples to climb into the boat,ut præcederent eum trans fretum ad Bethsaidam,so that they might precede him across the sea to Bethsaida,dum ipse dimitteret populum.while he dismissed the people.

46Et cum dimisisset eos,And when he had dismissed them,abiit in montem orare.he went to the mountain to pray.

47Et cum sero esset,And when it was late,erat navis in medio marithe boat was in the midst of the sea,et ipse solus in terra.and he was alone on the land.

48Et videns eos laborantes in remigando (erat enim ventus contrarius eis) et circa quartam vigiliam noctis venit ad eos ambulans supra mare: et volebat præterire eos.And seeing them struggling to row, (for the wind was against them,) and about the fourth watch of the night, he came to them, walking upon the sea. And he intended to pass by them.

49At illi ut viderunt eum ambulantem supra mare,But when they saw him walking upon the sea,putaverunt phantasma esse,they thought it was an apparition,et exclamaverunt.and they cried out.

50Omnes enim viderunt eum,For they all saw him,et conturbati sunt.and they were very disturbed.Et statim locutus est cum eis,And immediately he spoke with them,et dixit eis:and he said to them:Confidite,“Be strengthened in faith.ego sum:It is I.nolite timere.Do not be afraid.”

51Et ascendit ad illos in navim,And he climbed into the boat with them,et cessavit ventus.and the wind ceased.Et plus magis intra se stupebant:And they became even more astonished within themselves.

52non enim intellexerunt de panibus:For they did not understand about the bread.erat enim cor eorum obcæcatum.For their heart had been blinded.

53Et cum transfretassent,And when they had crossed over,venerunt in terram Genesareth,they arrived in the land of Genesaret,et applicuerunt.and they reached the shore.

54Cumque egressi essent de navi,And when they had disembarked from the boat,continuo cognoverunt eum:the people immediately recognized him.

55et percurrentes universam regionem illam,And running throughout that entire region,cœperunt in grabatis eos, qui se male habebant,they began to carry on beds those who had maladies,circumferre, ubi audiebant eum esse.to where they heard that he would be.

56Et quocumque introibat, in vicos,And in whichever place he entered,vel in villas aut civitates,in towns or villages or cities,in plateis ponebant infirmos,they placed the infirm in the main streets,et deprecabantur eum, ut vel fimbriam vestimenti ejus tangerent,and they pleaded with him that they might touch even the hem of his garment.et quotquot tangebant eum, salvi fiebant.And as many as touched him were made healthy.
