Matthew 14

At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

Tamin'izany andro izany Heroda mpanapaka nandre ny lazan'i Jesosy,

And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

ka hoy izy tamin'ny mpanompony: Jaona Mpanao-batisa izay; efa nitsangana tamin'ny maty izy, koa izany no ananany hery hanao izany asa lehibe izany.

For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.

Fa Heroda efa nisambotra an'i Jaona, dia namatotra azy ka nanao azy tao an-tranomaizina, noho ny tamin'i Herodiasy, vadin'i Filipo rahalahiny.

For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

Fa Jaona efa nilaza taminy hoe: Diso ianao, raha manambady azy.

And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

Ary Heroda naniry hamono azy, saingy natahotra ny vahoaka izy, satria nataon'ireo ho mpaminany Jaona.

But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.

Fa nony tonga ny fitsingerenan'ny taona nahaterahan'i Heroda, dia nandihy teo anatrehany ny zanakavavin'i Herodiasy ka nahafaly an'i Heroda.

Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.

Ary noho izany dia nianiana izy fa hanome azy izay hangatahiny na inona na inona.

And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.

Ary rehefa nomen-dreniny saina razazavavy, dia nanao hoe: Omeo ahy eto an-dovia ny lohan'i Jaona Mpanao-batisa.

And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.

Dia nalahelo ny mpanjaka; kanefa noho ny fianianany sy ny olona izay niara-nipetraka nihinana teo aminy, dia nandidy ihany izy mba homena izany.

And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

Ary dia naniraka hanapaka ny lohan'i Jaona tao an-tranomaizina izy.

And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.

Dia nentina an-dovia ny lohany ka nomena ilay zazavavy; ary izy nitondra azy ho ao amin-dreniny.

And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

Ary avy ny mpianany, dia naka ny faty ka nandevina azy; ary dia lasa izy ka nilaza tamin'i Jesosy.

When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.

Ary nony nandre izany Jesosy, dia niondrana an-tsambokely niala teo handeha hitokana any an-tany foana; ary raha nandre izany ny vahoaka, dia niala teny amin'ny tanàna maro izy ka nandeha an-tanety nanaraka Azy.

And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

Ary nony nivoaka Jesosy, dia nahita vahoaka betsaka, ary onena azy ka nahasitrana ny marariny.

And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

Ary nony hariva ny andro, dia nanatona Azy ny mpianatra ka nanao hoe: Tany foana ity, ary efa hariva ny andro izao; ravao ny vahoaka, mba hankanesany eny amin'ny vohitra hividy hanina ho azy.

But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Tsy tokony handeha izy; omeonareo hanina izy.

And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

Fa hoy ny mpianany taminy: Tsy misy atỳ aminay, afa-tsy mofo dimy sy hazandrano roa.

He said, Bring them hither to me.

Ary hoy Izy: Ento eto amiko izany.

And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

Dia nasainy nipetraka teny ambonin'ny ahitra ny vahoaka, ary noraisiny ny mofo dimy sy ny hazandrano roa, dia niandrandra ny lanitra Izy ka nisaotra; ary nony efa novakiny ny mofo, dia natolony ny mpianatra, ary ny mpianatra kosa nanolotra ho an'ny vahoaka.

And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

Ary nihinana avokoa izy rehetra, ka dia voky; ary nangoniny ny sombintsombiny sisa tsy lany, ka dia nahafeno harona roa ambin'ny folo.

And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

Ary izay nihinana dia tokony ho dimy arivo lahy, afa-tsy ny zaza amim-behivavy.

And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nanery ny mpianatra hiondrana an-tsambokely Jesosy ka hita eo alohany ho eny am-pita mandra-pandràvany ny vahoaka.

And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

Ary rehefa noravany ny vahoaka, dia niakatra tao an-tendrombohitra Izy mba hitokana hivavaka; ary nony hariva ny andro, dia nitoetra irery teo Izy.

But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.

Ary efa mby teo ampovoan'ny ranomasina ny sambokely tamin'izay, dia natopatopan'ny alon-drano izy, fa notohain'ny rivotra.

And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

Ary tamin'ny fiambenana fahefatra amin'ny alina dia nankeny amin'ny mpianany Jesosy, nitsangantsangana teny ambonin'ny ranomasina.

And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

Ary nony nahita Azy nitsangantsangana tambonin'ny ranomasina ny mpianatra, dia raiki-tahotra ka nanao hoe: Matoatoa io; dia niantso izy noho ny tahotra.

But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

Ary Jesosy niteny taminy niaraka tamin'izay hoe: Matokia, fa Izaho ihany, aza matahotra.

And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.

Ary Petera namaly Azy ka nanao hoe: Tompoko, raha Hianao ihany, dia asaovy manatona Anao eny ambonin'ny rano aho.

And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

Ary hoy Izy: Manatona. Dia nidina niala tamin'ny sambokely Petera ka nandeha tambonin'ny rano hanatona an'i Jesosy.

But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

Fa raha nahita ny rivotra izy, dia natahotra, ary raha vao nilentika izy, dia niantso hoe: Tompo ô, vonjeo aho!

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

Ary naninjitra ny tànany niaraka tamin'izay Jesosy, dia nandray azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry kely finoana, nahoana no niahanahana ianao?

And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

Ary rehefa niakatra teo an-tsambokely izy, dia nitsahatra ny rivotra.

Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

Ary izay teo an-tsambokely dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Zanak'Andriamanitra tokoa Hianao.

And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

Ary nony tafita izy, dia tonga teo an-tanety, any Genesareta.

And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;

Ary nony nahafantatra Azy ny tompon-tany teo, dia naniraka tany amin'ny tany rehetra manodidina izy ka nitondra ny marary rehetra ho eo aminy.

And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

Ary nangataka taminy ireo mba hamela azy hanendry na dia ny somotraviavin-dambany ihany aza; koa na iza na iza no nanendry dia sitrana tokoa.
