but when he saw them distressed in rowing (for the wind was against them), about the fourth watch of the night he went to them, walking upon the sea, they thought it was an apparition and shrieked aloud, for they all saw him and were terrified. But he at once spoke with them, saying. "Courage! It is I. Do not be afraid!"

There they got in a boat, and started across the sea for Capernaum. The darkness had already fallen, Jesus had not yet come to them, and the sea began to rise, because a strong wind was blowing. After they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing near to the boat, and they were terrified; but he said to them, "It is I, be not afraid." Then they were willing to take him on board, and immediately the boat reached the shore they were making for.
