Mark 6:12-20. καὶ ἐξελθόντες ἐκήρυξαν ἵνα μετανοῶσιν,
καὶ δαιμόνια πολλὰ ἐξέβαλλον, καὶ ἤλειφον ἐλαίῳ πολλοὺς ἀρρώστους καὶ
ἐθεράπευον. καὶ ἤκουσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἡρῴδης, φανερὸν γὰρ ἐγένετο τὸ ὄνομα
αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔλεγον ὅτι ἰωάννης ὁ βαπτίζων ἐγήγερται ἐκ νεκρῶν, καὶ διὰ
τοῦτο ἐνεργοῦσιν αἱ δυνάμεις ἐν αὐτῷ. ἄλλοι δὲ ἔλεγον ὅτι ἠλίας ἐστίν:
ἄλλοι δὲ ἔλεγον ὅτι προφήτης ὡς εἷς τῶν προφητῶν. ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ ἡρῴδης
ἔλεγεν, ὃν ἐγὼ ἀπεκεφάλισα ἰωάννην, οὗτος ἠγέρθη. αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁ ἡρῴδης
ἀποστείλας ἐκράτησεν τὸν ἰωάννην καὶ ἔδησεν αὐτὸν ἐν φυλακῇ διὰ ἡρῳδιάδα
τὴν γυναῖκα φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι αὐτὴν ἐγάμησεν: ἔλεγεν γὰρ
ὁ ἰωάννης τῷ ἡρῴδῃ ὅτι οὐκ ἔξεστίν σοι ἔχειν τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ
σου. ἡ δὲ ἡρῳδιὰς ἐνεῖχεν αὐτῷ καὶ ἤθελεν αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο:
ὁ γὰρ ἡρῴδης ἐφοβεῖτο τὸν ἰωάννην, εἰδὼς αὐτὸν ἄνδρα δίκαιον καὶ ἅγιον,
καὶ συνετήρει αὐτόν, καὶ ἀκούσας αὐτοῦ πολλὰ ἠπόρει, καὶ ἡδέως αὐτοῦ
ἤκουεν. |
Mark 6:12-20. And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick,
and healed them. And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread
abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and
therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him. Others said, That
it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.
But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he
is risen from the dead. For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold
upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's
wife: for he had married her. For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful
for thee to have thy brother's wife. Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against
him, and would have killed him; but she could not: For Herod feared John,
knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when
he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly. |
