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

²² And immediately Jesus compelled his disciples to go on board the vessel, and pass before him to the other side, while he dismissed the people. ²³ And when he had sent away the multitude, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when evening came, he was there alone. ²⁴ But the vessel was already in the midst of the sea, tossed with the waves: for the wind was contrary. ²⁵ Then at the fourth watch of the night came Jesus unto them, walking on the sea. ²⁶ And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were greatly agitated, saying, It is his apparition. And they cried out with terror.

²⁷ And immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, Be of good courage: it is I; be not terrified.

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

²⁹ And he said, Come. And descending from the vessel, Peter walked upon the waters to come to Jesus. ³⁰ But seeing the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink in the deep, he cried out, saying, Lord save me.

³¹ Then immediately Jesus stretching out his hand, laid hold on him, and said to him, O thou of little faith, wherefore dost thou doubt? ³² And when they came aboard the vessel, the wind ceased. ³³ And they who were in the vessel, came and worshipped him, saying, Truly thou art the Son of God.

⁴⁵ And immediately he compelled his disciples to go on board the vessel, and to go before him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he sent the multitude away. ⁴⁶ And having bid them farewell, he went into a mountain to pray. ⁴⁷ And when the evening was come, the vessel was in the midst of the sea, and himself alone on the land. ⁴⁸ And he saw them greatly fatigued with rowing, for the wind was contrary to them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh to them, walking upon the sea, and seemed intending to pass by them. ⁴⁹ But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they thought it was an apparition, and screamed out: ⁵⁰ for they all saw him, and were greatly agitated: and straitway he spoke to them, and said, Take courage, it is I, be not terrified. ⁵¹ And he went up to them into the vessel, and the wind ceased and they were beyond all imagination amazed in themselves, and lost in wonder. ⁵² For they reflected not upon the loaves, for their heart was hardened.

¹⁶ So when evening was now come, his disciples went down to the sea-side, ¹⁷ and embarking on a vessel were coming across the sea to Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them. ¹⁸ And the sea was greatly agitated by a tempestuous wind that blew. ¹⁹ Having rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near the vessel, and they were affrighted.

²⁰ But he saith to them, It is I; be not afraid. ²¹ Then they desired to take him into the vessel: and instantly the vessel was at the land whither they were going.
