25 And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou forthwith give me on a platter the head of John the Baptist.
And she soon entered with eagerness to the king, and said: I desire that thou, this hour, give me in a dish the head of John the Baptizer.
26 And the king was exceeding sorry; but for the sake of his oaths, and of them that sat at meat, he would not reject her.

And he saw them straining themselves in rowing; for the wind was against them. And in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them walking on the waters; and he was disposed to pass by them.
49 but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;
And they saw him walking on the waters, and they supposed that the appearance was a spectre: and they cried out.
50 for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he straightway spake with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

51 And he went up unto them into the boat; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves;
And he entered into the ship to them; and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed, and astonished among themselves.
