- Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away.
- After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone.
- But the boat was already a long distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary.
- And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea.
- When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out in fear.
|
- But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid."
- Peter said to Him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water."
- And He said, "Come!" And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
- But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!"
- Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"
|
- When they got into the boat, the wind stopped.
- And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, "You are certainly God's Son!"
- When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.
- And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent word into all that surrounding district and brought to Him all who were sick;
- and they implored Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were cured.
