Matthew 14:22-33 - Jesus Walks On The Water

²² 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. ²³ And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there, ²⁴ but the ship was already in the middle of the sea tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary. ²⁵ But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea. ²⁶ And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.

²⁷ But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I: be not afraid.

²⁸ And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come to thee upon the waters.

²⁹ And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus. ³⁰ But seeing the wind strong he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.

³¹ 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? ³² And when they had gone up into the ship, the wind fell. ³³ But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son.

⁴⁵ And immediately he compelled his disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before to the other side to Bethsaida, while he sends the crowd away. ⁴⁶ And, having dismissed them, he departed into the mountain to pray. ⁴⁷ And when evening was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land. ⁴⁸ And seeing them labouring in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he comes to them walking on the sea, and would have passed them by. ⁴⁹ But they, seeing him walking on the sea, thought that it was an apparition, and cried out. ⁵⁰ For all saw him and were troubled. And immediately he spoke with them, and says to them, Be of good courage: it is I; be not afraid. ⁵¹ And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind fell. And they were exceedingly beyond measure astonished in themselves and wondered; ⁵² for they understood not through the loaves: for their heart was hardened.

¹⁶ But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea, ¹⁷ and having gone on board ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not come to them, ¹⁸ and the sea was agitated by a strong wind blowing. ¹⁹ Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.

²⁰ But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid. ²¹ They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.
