Greek Text

Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament, 28th Edition Chapter 6

Μετὰ ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς πέραν τῆς θαλάσσης ⸂τῆς Γαλιλαίας τῆς Τιβεριάδος⸃.* 2 ⸂ἠκολούθει δὲ⸃ αὐτῷ ὄχλος πολύς,* ⸄ὅτι ἐθεώρουν⸅ τὰ σημεῖα ἃ ἐποίει ἐπὶ τῶν ἀσθενούντων.* *3 ἀνῆλθεν ⸀δὲ εἰς τὸ ὄρος ⸁Ἰησοῦς καὶ ⸂ἐκεῖ ἐκάθητο⸃ μετὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ.* *4 ἦν δὲ ἐγγὺς τὸ πάσχα, ἡ ἑορτὴ τῶν Ἰουδαίων.*

*5 Ἐπάρας οὖν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ θεασάμενος ὅτι ⸉πολὺς ὄχλος⸊ ἔρχεται πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγει πρὸς ⸆ Φίλιππον· πόθεν ⸀ἀγοράσωμεν ἄρτους ἵνα φάγωσιν οὗτοι;* 6 τοῦτο δὲ ἔλεγεν πειράζων αὐτόν· αὐτὸς γὰρ ᾔδει τί ἔμελλεν ποιεῖν.* 7 ⸂ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ⸃ °[ὁ] Φίλιππος· διακοσίων δηναρίων ἄρτοι οὐκ ἀρκοῦσιν αὐτοῖς ἵνα ἕκαστος βραχύ °1[τι] λάβῃ. 8 λέγει αὐτῷ εἷς ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ,* Ἀνδρέας ὁ ἀδελφὸς Σίμωνος Πέτρου· 9 ἔστιν παιδάριον ⸆ ὧδε ὃς ἔχει πέντε ἄρτους κριθίνους καὶ δύο ὀψάρια· ἀλλὰ ⸂ταῦτα τί ἐστιν⸃ εἰς τοσούτους; 10 εἶπεν ⸆ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· ποιήσατε τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ἀναπεσεῖν. ἦν δὲ χόρτος πολὺς ἐν τῷ τόπῳ. ἀνέπεσαν οὖν °οἱ ἄνδρες τὸν ἀριθμὸν ⸂ὡς πεντακισχίλιοι⸃.* 11 ἔλαβεν οὖν τοὺς ἄρτους ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ ⸂εὐχαριστήσας διέδωκεν⸃ ⸆ τοῖς ἀνακειμένοις ὁμοίως καὶ ἐκ τῶν ὀψαρίων ὅσον ἤθελον.* 12 ὡς δὲ ἐνεπλήσθησαν, λέγει τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ· συναγάγετε τὰ περισσεύσαντα κλάσματα, ἵνα μή τι ἀπόληται. 13 συνήγαγον οὖν καὶ ἐγέμισαν δώδεκα κοφίνους κλασμάτων ἐκ τῶν πέντε ἄρτων τῶν κριθίνων ἃ ⸀ἐπερίσσευσαν τοῖς βεβρωκόσιν. *14 Οἱ οὖν ἄνθρωποι ἰδόντες* ⸂ὃ ἐποίησεν σημεῖον⸃ ἔλεγον ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν ἀληθῶς ὁ προφήτης ὁ ⸉ἐρχόμενος εἰς τὸν κόσμον⸊.* *15 Ἰησοῦς οὖν γνοὺς ὅτι μέλλουσιν ἔρχεσθαι καὶ ἁρπάζειν αὐτὸν ⸂ἵνα ποιήσωσιν⸃* βασιλέα, ✽ ⸀ἀνεχώρησεν πάλιν εἰς τὸ ὄρος αὐτὸς μόνος⸆.*

*16 Ὡς δὲ ὀψία ἐγένετο κατέβησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ* ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν 17 καὶ ἐμβάντες εἰς ⸆ πλοῖον ἤρχοντο πέραν τῆς θαλάσσης εἰς Καφαρναούμ.* ⸂καὶ σκοτία ἤδη ἐγεγόνει⸃ καὶ ⸄οὔπω ἐληλύθει πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁ Ἰησοῦς⸅, 18 ἥ τε θάλασσα ἀνέμου μεγάλου πνέοντος διεγείρετο.* 19 ἐληλακότες οὖν ὡς ⸀σταδίους εἴκοσι πέντε ἢ τριάκοντα θεωροῦσιν τὸν Ἰησοῦν περιπατοῦντα ἐπὶ ⸂τῆς θαλάσσης⸃ καὶ ἐγγὺς τοῦ πλοίου γινόμενον,* καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν. 20 ὁ δὲ λέγει αὐτοῖς· ἐγώ εἰμι· μὴ φοβεῖσθε.* 21 ἤθελον οὖν λαβεῖν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον, καὶ εὐθέως ⸉ἐγένετο τὸ πλοῖον⸊ ἐπὶ ⸂τῆς γῆς⸃ εἰς ἣν ὑπῆγον.

Translation

[1] With this Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee of Tiberius.

[2] But a great crowd followed him, so that they could see him perform signs on the sick ones.

[3] But Jesus went up on a mountain and in that place sat with his disciples.

[4] It was near the Passover, a feast of the Jews.

[5] Now Jesus lifted up his eyes and saw the great crowds that had come to him saying to Philip, “From where might they buy bread so that they can eat here?”

[6] But this he said to test him, for he knew what he was about to do.

[7] Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii would not be enough to satisfy them even if some take a little.”

[8] One of the disciples said to him, Andrew the brother of Simon Peter,

[9] “There is a child here who has five loaves of barley and two fish; but is this enough?

[10] Jesus said, “Make the men sit down. But the grass was very great in that place. Now the men sitting down was five thousand.

[11] Now Jesus took the bread and gave thanks and distributed to those sitting likewise and from the fish they took what they wanted.

[12] And after they were satisfied, he said to the disciples, “Gather the broken pieces that abound, so that none will perish.

[13] So they gathered and filled twelve baskets of broken pieces from the five leaves of barley that abounded that were eaten. (Help on “that abounded that were eat”)

[14] So then the men saw the performed sign and said that, “This is truly the prophet is coming into the world.

[15] Now Jesus knew that they were about to come and take him away in order to make him king, so he withdrew again to the mountain alone.

[16] But as evening came, his disciples went down upon the lake

[17] and got into a boat and arrived on the other side of the lake in Capernaum. And it had already become dark and Jesus had not yet come to them,

[18] And a great wind blew and stirred up the lake.

[19] Now then they were driven 25 and 30 stadia and they saw Jesus walking upon the lake and coming near the boat, and they were afraid.

[20] But he said to them, “I am, do not be afraid.]

[21] So then they wanted to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came upon the land they were going to. (?)
