Matthew - ch 14 v 21 - 36
- But those that had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
- And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds.
- And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there,
- but the ship was already in the middle of the sea tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
- But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea.
- And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.
- But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I: be not afraid.
- And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come to thee upon the waters.
- And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus.
- But seeing the wind strong he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.
- And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?
- And when they had gone up into the ship, the wind fell.
- But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son.
- And having crossed over they came to the land of Gennesaret.
- And when the men of that place recognised him, they sent to that whole country around, and they brought to him all that were ill,
- and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment; and as many as touched were made thoroughly well.
