< Mark 6 >

1 And he went out from there and came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
And he departed thence and cam into his awne countre and his disciples folowed him.
2 And when the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things?" and, "What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?
And whe the saboth daye was come he beganne to teache in ye synagsge. And many that hearde him were astonyed and sayde: From whens hath he these thinges? and what wysdo is this that is geve vnto him? and suche vertues yt are wrought by his hondes?
3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, Josi, Judas, and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us?" They were offended at him.
Is not this that carpeter Maryes sonne ye brother of Iames and Ioses and of Iuda and Simon? and are not his systers here with vs? And they were offended by him.
4 Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house."
And Iesus sayde vnto the: a prophet is not despysed but in his awne coutre and amonge his awne kynne and amonge the that are of the same housholde.
5 And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people, and healed them.
And he coulde there shewe no miracles but leyd his hondes apon a feawe sicke foolke and healed the.
6 And he was amazed because of their unbelief. And he went around the villages teaching.
And he merveyled at their vnbelefe. And he went aboute by ye tounes yt laye on every syde teachynge.
7 And he called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
And he called ye twelve and beganne to sende them two and two and gave them power over vnclene spretes.
8 And he commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only: no bread, no pack, no money in their belts,
And comaunded the that they shuld take nothinge vnto their Iorney save a rodde only: Nether scrippe nether breed nether mony in their pourses:
9 but to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.
but shuld be shood with sandals. And that they shuld not put on two coottes.
10 And he said to them, "Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.
And he sayd vnto the: whersoever ye entre in to an house there abyde tyll ye departe thence
11 And if any place will not receive you or listen to you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them."
And whosoever shall not receave you nor heare you when ye departe thence shake of the duste that is vnder youre fete for a witnesse vnto them. I saye verely vnto you it shalbe easyer for Zodom and Gomor at the daye of iudgement then for that cite.
12 So they went out and proclaimed that all should repent.
And they went out and preached that they shuld repent:
13 They cast out many demons, and anointed many with oil who were sick, and healed them.
and they caste out many devylles. And they annoynted many that were sicke with oyle and healed them.
14 King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, "John the Baptist has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."
And kynge Herode herde of him (for his name was spreed abroade) and sayd: Iohn Baptiste is rysen agayne from deeth and therfore miracles are wrought by him.
15 But others said, "He is Elijah." Others said, "He is a prophet, like one of the prophets."
Wother sayd it is Helyas: and some sayde: it is a Prophet or as one of ye Prophetes.
16 But Herod, when he heard this, said, "This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen."
But when Herode hearde of him he sayd: it is Iohn whom I beheded he is rysen from deeth agayne.
17 For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, for he had married her.
For Herode him sylfe had sent forth and had taken Iohn and bounde him and cast him into preson for Herodias sake which was his brother Philippes wyfe. For he had maried her.
18 For John said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."
Iohn sayd vnto Herode: It is not laufull for the to have thy brothers wyfe.
19 So Herodias set herself against him, and desired to kill him, but she could not,
Herodias layd wayte for him and wolde have killed him but she coulde not.
20 for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. And when he heard him, he was very perplexed, but he heard him gladly.
For Herode feared Iohn knowynge yt he was a iuste man and an holy: and gave him reverence: and when he hearde him he dyd many thinges and hearde him gladly.
21 And then a convenient day came, that Herod on his birthday gave a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the leaders of Galilee.
But when a couenient daye was come: Herode on his birth daye made a supper to ye lordes captayns and chefe estates of Galile.
22 And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young woman, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."
And ye doughter of ye sayde Herodias came in and daused and pleased Herode and them that sate at bourde also. Then ye kynge sayd vnto ye mayden: axe of me what thou wilt and I will geve it ye
23 And he swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."
And he sware vnto hyr whatsoever thou shalt axe of me I will geve it ye even vnto ye one halfe of my kyngdome.
24 So she went out, and said to her mother, "What should I ask?" And she said, "The head of John the baptizer."
And she wet forth and sayde to her mother: what shall I axe? And she sayde: Iohn Baptistes heed.
25 And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, "I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptist on a platter."
And she cam in streygth waye with haste vnto ye kynge and axed sayinge: I will that thou geve me by and by in a charger ye heed of Iohn Baptist.
26 And the king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths, and those reclining, he did not wish to refuse her.
And ye kynge was sory: howbe it for his othes sake and for their sakes which sate at supper also he wolde not put her besyde her purpose.
27 So immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard, and commanded to bring John's head, and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
And immediatly ye kynge sent ye hangma and comaunded his heed to be brought in. And he went and beheeded him in the preson
28 and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young woman; and the young woman gave it to her mother.
and brought his heed in a charger and gave it to the mayden and the mayden gave it to her mother.
29 And when his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse, and placed it in a tomb.
And when his disciples hearde of it they came and toke vp his body and put it in a toumbe.
30 Then the apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
And the apostels gaddered them selves to ggedre to Iesus and tolde him all thinges booth what they had done and what they had taught.
31 And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to an isolated place, and rest awhile." For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
And he sayd vnto them: come ye aparte into the wyldernes and rest awhyle. For there were many comers and goers that they had no leasure so moche as to eate.
32 So they went away in the boat to an isolated place by themselves.
And he wet by ship out of the waye into a deserte place.
33 But they saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities and they arrived before them.
But the people spyed them when they departed: and many knewe him and ranne afote thyther out of all cities and cam thyther before them and came togedder vnto him.
34 And he came out, saw a large crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.
And Iesus went out and sawe moche people and had compassion on them because they were lyke shepe which had no shepeherde. And he beganne to teache them many thinges.
35 And when it was late in the day, his disciples came to him, and said, "This place is desolate, and it is late in the day.
And when ye daye was nowe farre spet his disciples came vnto him sayinge: this is a desert place and now the daye is farre passed
36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages, and buy themselves something to eat."
let the departe that they maye goo into the countrey rounde about and into the tounes and bye the breed: for they have nothinge to eate.
37 But he answered them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to him, "Are we to go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give them something to eat?"
He answered and sayde vnto them: geve ye the to eate. And they sayde vnto him: shall we goo and bye ii. C. penyworth of breed and geve the to eate?
38 He said to them, "How many loaves do you have? Go see." When they knew, they said, "Five, and two fish."
He sayde vnto the: how many loves have ye? Goo and loke. And when they had serched they sayde: v. and. ii. fysshes.
39 He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
And he comaunded them to make them all syt doune by companyes apon the grene grasse.
40 They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
And they sate doune here a rowe and there arowe by houndredes and by fyfties.
41 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his disciples to set before them, and he divided the two fish among them all.
And he toke ye. v. loves and ye ii. fysshes and loked vp to heven and blessed and brake the loves and gave them to his disciples to put before the: and the. ii. fysshes he devyded amonge them all.
42 They all ate, and were filled.
And they all dyd eate and were satisfied.
43 They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
And they toke vp twelve baskettesfull of the gobbettes and of ye fysshes.
44 Those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
And they that ate were about fyve thousand men.
45 And immediately he made his disciples get into the boat, and to go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself was sending the crowd away.
And streyght waye he caused his disciples to goo into the shipe and to goo over the water before vnto Bethsaida whyll he sent awaye the people.
46 After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.
And assone as he had sent them away he departed into a moutayne to praye.
47 When evening had come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
And when even was come the ship was in the middes of the see and he alone on the londe
48 He saw them distressed in rowing, for the wind was against them. In the watch between three and six in the morning he came to them, walking on the sea, and he would have passed by them,
and he sawe the troubled in rowynge for the wynde was cotrary vnto them. And aboute ye fourth quartre of ye nyght he came vnto the walkinge apon the see and wolde have passed by the.
49 but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and began to scream;
When they sawe him walkinge apon the see they supposed it had bene a sprete and cryed oute:
50 for they all saw him, and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them, "Cheer up. It is I. Do not be afraid."
For they all sawe him and were afrayed. And anon he talked with them and sayde vnto them: be of good chere it is I be not afrayed.
51 And he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they were completely profusely astonished among themselves;
And he went vp vnto them into the shippe and the wynde ceased and they were sore amased in them selves beyonde measure and marveyled.
52 for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.
For they remembred not of the loves because their hertes were blynded.
53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.
And they came over and went into the londe of Genezareth and drue vp into the haven.
54 When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,
And assone as they were come out of ye shippe streyght they knewe him
55 and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick, on their mats, to where they heard he was.
and ran forth throughout all ye region rounde about and began to cary aboute in beeddes all yt were sicke to the place where they heard tell yt he was.
56 Wherever he entered, into villages, or into cities, or into the country, they placed the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch just the fringe of his garment; and everyone who touched him were made well.
And whyther soever he entred into tounes cities or villages they layde their sicke in the stretes and prayed him that they myght touche and it were but the edge of his vesture. And as many as touched him were safe.
