Mark 6
6
1 And departing from there, he went away to his own country; and his disciples followed him.
2 And when the Sabbath arrived, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many, upon hearing him, were amazed at his doctrine, saying: "Where did this one get all these things?" and, "What is this wisdom, which has been given to him?" and, "Such powerful deeds, which are wrought by his hands!"
3 "Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joseph, and Jude, and Simon? Are not his sisters also here with us?" And they took great offense at him.
4 And Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred."
5 And he was not able to perform any miracles there, except that he cured a few of the infirm by laying his hands on them.
6 And he wondered, because of their unbelief, and he traveled around in the villages, teaching.
7 And he called the twelve. And he began to send them out in twos, and he gave them authority over unclean spirits.
8 And he instructed them not to take anything for the journey, except a staff: no traveling bag, no bread, and no money belt,
9 but to wear sandals, and not to wear two tunics.
10 And he said to them: "Whenever you have entered into a house, stay there until you depart from that place.
11 And whoever will neither receive you, nor listen to you, as you go away from there, shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them."
12 And going out, they were preaching, so that people would repent.
13 And they cast out many demons, and they anointed many of the sick with oil and healed them.
14 And king Herod heard of it, (for his name had become well-known) and he said: "John the Baptist has risen again from the dead, and because of this, miracles are at work in him."
15 But others were saying, "Because it is Elijah." Still others were saying, "Because he is a prophet, like one of the prophets."
16 When Herod had heard it, he said, "John whom I beheaded, the same has risen again from the dead."
17 For Herod himself had sent to capture John, and had chained him in prison, because of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip; for he had married her.
18 For John was saying to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."
19 Now Herodias was devising treachery against him; and she wanted to kill him, but she was unable.
20 For Herod was apprehensive of John, knowing him to be a just and holy man, and so he guarded him. And he heard that he was accomplishing many things, and so he listened to him willingly.
21 And when an opportune time had arrived, Herod held a feast on his birthday, with the leaders, and the tribunes, and the first rulers of Galilee.
22 And when the daughter of the same Herodias had entered, and danced, and pleased Herod, along with those who were at table with him, the king said to the girl, "Request from me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."
23 And he swore to her, "Anything that you request, I will give to you, even up to half my kingdom."
24 And when she had gone out, she said to her mother, "What shall I request?" But her mother said, "The head of John the Baptist."
25 And immediately, when she had entered with haste to the king, she petitioned him, saying: "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."
26 And the king was greatly saddened. But because of his oath, and because of those who were sitting with him at table, he was not willing to disappoint her.
27 So, having sent an executioner, he instructed that his head be brought on a platter.
28 And he beheaded him in prison, and he brought his head on a platter. And he gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it her mother.
29 When his disciples heard about it, they came and took his body, and they placed it in a tomb.
30 And the Apostles, returning to Jesus, reported to him everything that they had done and taught.
31 And he said to them, "Go out alone, into a deserted place, and rest for a little while." For there were so many who were coming and going, that they did not even have time to eat.
32 And climbing into a boat, they went away to a deserted place alone.
33 And they saw them going away, and many knew about it. And together they ran by foot from all the cities, and they arrived before them.
34 And Jesus, going out, saw a great multitude. And he took pity on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.
35 And when many hours had now passed, his disciples drew near to him, saying: "This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late.
36 Send them away, so that by going out to nearby villages and towns, they might buy provisions for themselves to eat."
37 And responding, he said to them, "Give them something to eat yourselves." And they said to him, "Let us go out and buy bread for two hundred denarii, and then we will give them something to eat."
38 And he said to them: "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." And when they had found out, they said, "Five, and two fish."
39 And he instructed them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.
40 And they sat down in divisions by hundreds and by fifties.
41 And having received the five loaves and the two fish, gazing up to heaven, he blessed and broke the bread, and he gave it to his disciples to set before them. And the two fish he divided among them all.
42 And they all ate and were satisfied.
43 And they brought together the remainder: twelve baskets full of fragments and of fish.
44 Now those who ate were five thousand men.
45 And without delay he urged his disciples to climb into the boat, so that they might precede him across the sea to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the people.
46 And when he had dismissed them, he went to the mountain to pray.
47 And when it was late, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48 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.
49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they thought it was an apparition, and they cried out.
50 For they all saw him, and they were very disturbed. And immediately he spoke with them, and he said to them: "Be strengthened in faith. It is I. Do not be afraid."
51 And he climbed into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they became even more astonished within themselves.
52 For they did not understand about the bread. For their heart had been blinded.
53 And when they had crossed over, they arrived in the land of Genesaret, and they reached the shore.
54 And when they had disembarked from the boat, the people immediately recognized him.
55 And running throughout that entire region, they began to carry on beds those who had maladies, to where they heard that he would be.
56 And in whichever place he entered, in towns or villages or cities, they placed the infirm in the main streets, and they pleaded with him that they might touch even the hem of his garment. And as many as touched him were made healthy.

Marqos (Mark) 6
6
1And He went away from there and came to His own country, and His taught ones followed Him.
2And Sabbath having come, He began to teach in the congregation. And many who heard Him were astonished, saying, “Where did He get all this? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such miracles are done through His hands?
3Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Miryam, and brother of Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yosĕph, and Yehuḏah, and Shim‛on? And are not His sisters here with us? And they stumbled in Him.
4And יהושע said to them, “A prophet is not unappreciated except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5And He was unable to do any miracle there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick ones and healed them.
6And He marvelled because of their unbelief. And He was going around among the villages, teaching.
7And He called the twelve near, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over unclean spirits.
8And He instructed them to take none at all for the journey except a staff – no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts,
9but to wear sandals, and not to wear two undergarments.
10And He said to them, “Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you leave that place.
11And any place that does not receive you or listen to you, when you leave there, shake off the dust under your feet as a witness against them. Truly, I say to you, it shall be more bearable for Seḏom and Amorah in the day of judgment than for that city!
12And they went out and proclaimed that men should repent.
13And they were casting out many demons, and they were anointing with oil many who were sick, and they were healing them.
14And Sovereign Herodes heard, for His Name had become well-known. And he said, “Yoḥanan the Immerser has been raised from the dead, and because of this these powers are at work in him.”
15Others said, “He is Ěliyahu.” And others said, “He is a prophet – like one of the prophets.”
16But when Herodes heard, he said, “This one is Yoḥanan whom I beheaded, he has been raised from the dead!”
17For Herodes himself had sent and seized Yoḥanan, and bound him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, because he had married her,
18for Yoḥanan had said to Herodes, “It is not right for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19So Herodias held a grudge against him and wished to kill him, but was unable,
20for Herodes feared Yoḥanan, knowing that he was a righteous and set-apart man, and he protected him. And when he heard him, he was much perplexed, yet heard him gladly.
21And a suitable day came when Herodes on his birthday gave a feast for his great men, and the high officers, and the chief men of Galil.
22And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, and pleased Herodes and those who sat with him, the sovereign said to the girl, “Ask me whatever you wish, and I shall give it to you.”
23And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask me, I shall give you, up to half of my reign.”
24And she went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?” And she said, “The head of Yoḥanan the Immerser!”
25And coming in immediately with haste to the sovereign she asked, saying, “I wish that you give me at once the head of Yoḥanan the Immerser on a dish.”
26And the sovereign, becoming deeply grieved, because of the oaths, and because of those who sat with him, did not wish to refuse her.
27And the sovereign straightaway sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison,
28and brought his head on a dish, and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother.
29And when his taught ones heard of it, they came and took away his dead body and laid it in a tomb.
30And the emissaries gathered to יהושע and reported to Him all, both what they had done and what they had taught.
31And He said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a lonely place and rest a little” – for there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
32And they went away to a lonely place in the boat by themselves.
33But they saw them going, and many recognised Him and ran there on foot from all the cities, and came before them and came together to Him.
34And having gone out, יהושע saw a large crowd and was moved with compassion for them because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. And He began to teach them many matters.
35And as the hour grew late, His taught ones came to Him and said, “This is a lonely place, and now the hour is late.
36Send them away, so that they go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread, since they have no food to eat.”
37But He answering, said to them, “You give them to eat.” And they said to Him, “Should we go and buy two hundred denarii#Roman monetary unit. worth of bread and give them to eat?”
38Then He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And when they found out they said, “Five, and two fishes.”
39And He ordered them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.
40And they sat down in groups, in hundreds and in fifties.
41And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to the heaven, He blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His taught ones to set before them. And the two fishes He divided among them all.
42And all ate and were satisfied.
43And they picked up twelve baskets, filled with pieces, also from the fishes.
44Now those who ate the loaves were about five thousand men.
45And immediately He made His taught ones enter into the boat, and to go before Him to the other side, to Bĕyth Tsaiḏa, while He was dismissing the crowd.
46And having sent them away, He went away to the mountain to pray.
47And when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea. And He was alone on the land.
48And seeing them straining at rowing – for the wind was against them – at about the fourth watch of the night, He came to them walking on the sea, and He wished to pass them by.
49And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was a phantom, and cried out,
50for they all saw Him and were troubled. And immediately He spoke to them and said to them, “Take courage, it is I. Do not be afraid.”
51And He went up to them, into the boat, and the wind ceased. And they were exceedingly amazed in themselves, and marvelled.
52For they did not understand about the loaves, because their heart was hardened.
53And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennĕsar and drew to shore.
54And when they came out of the boat, He was immediately recognised,
55and all that neighbourhood ran about, and began to carry about on beds those who were sick to wherever they heard He was.
56And wherever He went, into villages, or cities, or the country, they were laying the sick in the market-places, and begged Him to let them touch if only the tzitzit#See Explanatory Notes "Tzitzit" and Num. 15:37-41; Deut. 22:12. of His garment. And as many as touched Him were healed.
