The Death of John the Baptist
(Mark 6.14-29Luke 9.7-9)1 About this time Herod the ruler heard the news about Jesus 2 and told his officials, “This is John the Baptist! He has come back from death, and that's why he has the power to work these miracles.”
3-4 Herod had earlier arrested John and had him chained and put in prison. He did this because John had told him, “It isn't right for you to take Herodias, the wife of your brother Philip.” 5 Herod wanted to kill John. But the people thought John was a prophet, and Herod was afraid of what they might do.
6 When Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced for the guests. She pleased Herod 7 so much he swore to give her whatever she wanted. 8 But the girl's mother told her to say, “Here on a serving plate I want the head of John the Baptist!”
9 Herod was sorry for what he had said. But he did not want to break the promise he had made in front of his guests. So he ordered a guard 10 to go to the prison and cut off John's head. 11 It was taken on a serving plate to the girl, and she gave it to her mother. 12 John's followers took his body and buried it. Then they told Jesus what had happened.
Jesus Feeds Five Thousand
(Mark 6.30-44Luke 9.10-17John 6.1-14)13 After Jesus heard about John, he crossed Lake Galilee to go to some place where he could be alone. But the crowds found out and followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw the large crowd. He felt sorry for them and healed everyone who was sick.
15 That evening the disciples came to Jesus and said, “This place is like a desert, and it's already late. Let the crowds leave, so they can go to the villages and buy some food.”
16 Jesus replied, “They don't have to leave. Why don't you give them something to eat?”
17 But they said, “We have only five small loaves of bread and two fish.” 18 Jesus asked his disciples to bring the food to him, 19 and he told the crowd to sit down on the grass. Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish. He looked up toward heaven and blessed the food. Then he broke the bread and handed it to his disciples, and they gave it to the people.
20 After everyone had eaten all they wanted, Jesus' disciples picked up twelve large baskets of leftovers.
21 There were about 5,000 men who ate, not counting the women and children.
Jesus Walks on the Water
(Mark 6.45-52John 6.15-21)22 At once, Jesus made his disciples get into a boat and start back across the lake. But he stayed until he had sent the crowds away. 23 Then he went up on a mountain where he could be alone and pray. Later in the evening, he was still there.
24 By this time the boat was a long way from the shore. It was going against the wind and was being tossed around by the waves. 25 A little while before morning, Jesus came walking on the water toward his disciples. 26 When they saw him, they thought he was a ghost. They were terrified and started screaming.
27 At once, Jesus said to them, “Don't worry! I am Jesus. Don't be afraid.”
28 Peter replied, “Lord, if it really is you, tell me to come to you on the water.”
29 “Come on!” Jesus said. Peter then got out of the boat and started walking on the water toward him.
30 But when Peter saw how strong the wind was, he was afraid and started sinking. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted.
31 At once, Jesus reached out his hand. He helped Peter up and said, “You surely don't have much faith. Why do you doubt?”
32 When Jesus and Peter got into the boat, the wind died down. 33 The men in the boat worshiped Jesus and said, “You really are the Son of God!”
Jesus Heals Sick People in Gennesaret
(Mark 6.53-56)34 Jesus and his disciples crossed the lake and came to shore near the town of Gennesaret. 35 The people found out he was there, and they sent word to everyone who lived in this part of the country. So they brought all the sick people to Jesus. 36 They begged him just to let them touch his clothes, and everyone who did was healed.

Jōņa Kristeitōja nōve.
1 Tamā laikā tetrarchs Erods, izdzērdis par Jezus gūdu, 2 saceja sovim kolpim: Tys ir Jōņs Kristeitōjs. Jys ir pīsacēlis nu myrūnim un tōdēļ breinumi nūteik caur jū.
3 Erods tadei beja, sova brōļa Filipa sīvas Erodiades dēļ, licis Jōni apcītynōt, sasīt un īmest cītumā. 4 jo Jōņs tam saceja: Tev nava breivi jōs turēt, 5 Un jys gribēja jū nūnōvēt, bet beidōs ļaužu, jo jī atzyna tū par pravīti.
6 Bet Eroda dzimšonas svineibōs, Erodiades meita doncojūt īpatyka Erodam. 7 Tōpēc jys zvārādamīs pīsūleja jai dūt vysu, kū vīn jei praseitu. 8 Jei, sovas mōtes pīrunōta, saceja: Dūd maņ uz bļūdas Jōņa Kristeitōja golvu. 9 Kēneņš nūskuma. Bet, sova zvārasta un cīmeņu dēļ, pavēlēja dūt. 10 Pasyuteidams uz cītumu, lyka tur nūcērst Jōņam golvu. 11 Un jō golva tyka uz bļūdas atnasta un atdūta meitinei; un tei aiznese jū sovai mōtei.
12 Tad atgōjuši jō mōcekli pajēme jō mīsu, paglōbōja jū un nūgōjuši pastōsteja Jezum.
13 Tū izdzērdis Jezus aizceļōja laivā uz vīnu nūmaļ asūšu vītu. Bet ļaudis izdzērduši gōja kōjom nu mīsta Jam pakaļ. 14 Un izīdams Jezus īraudzeja lelus ļaužu pulkus, cīte jim leidza un jūs sliminīkus padareja vasalus.
Maizes pavairōšonas breinums.
15 Bet, ka palyka vālu, pīgōja pi Jō mōcekli un saceja: Šei vīta ir tukša, un stuņde jau vāla; atlaid ļaudis, lai jī ītu uz sadžom un nūpērktu sev pōrtyku. 16 Bet Jezus tim saceja: Nava vajadzeibas īt, jyus poši pabarojit jūs. 17 Bet tī Jam atbiļdēja: Mums šite nava vairōk, kai tik pīci maizes kukuli un divi zivis. 18 Bet jys tim saceja: Nesit Maņ jūs šur. 19 Pavēlējis ļaudim nūsēst uz zōles, pajēme tūs pīcus maizes kukuļus un divi zivis, pacēle acis uz dabasim, nūsvēteja tūs, lauze maizi un deve mōceklim, un mōcekli — ļaudim. 20 Visi ēde un topa seiti; nu atlykušajim gobolim pīlaseja divpadsmit peitiņu. 21 Bet ādōju daudzums beja leidz pīcom tyukstūšom cylvāku, naskaitūt sīvīšu un bārnu.
K. Jezus īt pa jyuru.
22 Tad Jys pavēlēja sovim mōceklim sēstīs tyuleņ laivā, un, koleidz Jys atlaiss ļaudis, pōrsaceļt uz ūtrū krostu. 23 Atlaidis ļaužu pulkus, Jys uzkōpe kolnā vīntuleibā lyugtūs. Kad atgōja vokors, Jys tur beja vīns (pats). 24 Laiva beja uz jyuras vyds, un viļni jū mātōja uz vysom pusem, jo beja pretejais vējs. 25 Bet caturtōs nakts sardzes laikā, Jys, īdams pa jyuru, atgōja pi jim. 26 Mōcekli īraudzejuši Jū ejam pa jyuru, izbailēs saceja: tys ir spūks; un nu bailem sōce klīgt. 27 Bet Jezus tyuleņ sōce runōt saceidams: Esit drūsi, Es asmu, — nasabeistit!
K. Jezus glōb Pīteri.
28 Kungs, atsasauce Pīters, jo Tu esi te, tad lic maņ pa yudiņa vērsu aizīt pi Tevis. 29 Ej šur, Jys atbiļdēja. Izkōpis nu laivas, Pīters pa yudiņa vērsu gōja, lai nūītu pi Jezus. 30 Bet, radzādams stypru vēju, nūsabeida, un sōce grimt, klīgdams: Kungs, glōb mani! 31 Jezus, tyuleņ izstīpis rūku, nūtvēre jū un jam saceja: Mozticeigais, kōdēļ tu šaubejīs! 32 Kad jī sakōpe laivā, vējs nūstōja. 33 Laivā asūšī sagōja, pagūdynōja Jū un saceja: Patīši, Tu esi Dīva Dāls!
34 Tad pōrbraukuši pōri, aizgōja uz Genezareta zemi. 35 Kai tik Jū pazyna tōs molas ļaudis, tyuleņ iznosōja ziņu pa vysu tū apgobolu un sanese pi Jō vysus slymūs. 36 Tī Jō lyudze, lai atļaun jim kaut pi Jō svōrku veiles pīsaskart. Un tī, kas pīsaskōre, palyka vasali.
