Walking on the Water
45 Immediately(A) He made His disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, to Bethsaida,(B) while He dismissed the crowd. 46 After He said good-bye to them, He went away to the mountain(C) to pray.(D) 47 When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land. 48 He saw them being battered(E) as they rowed,[a] because the wind was against them. Around three in the morning[b] He came toward them walking on the sea and wanted to pass by them. 49 When they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost(F) and cried out; 50 for they all saw Him and were terrified.(G) Immediately He spoke with them and said, “Have courage!(H) It is I.(I) Don’t be afraid.”(J) 51 Then He got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. They were completely astounded,[c] 52 because they had not understood about the loaves. Instead, their hearts were hardened.(K)
Miraculous Healings
53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret(L) and beached the boat. 54 As they got out of the boat, people immediately recognized Him. 55 They hurried throughout that vicinity and began to carry the sick(M) on mats to wherever they heard He was. 56 Wherever He would go, into villages, towns, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged Him that they might touch just the tassel(N) of His robe.(O) And everyone who touched it was made well.

Jesus Walks on the Water(A)(B)
45 Immediately Jesus made his disciples get into the boat(C) and go on ahead of him to Bethsaida,(D) while he dismissed the crowd. 46 After leaving them, he went up on a mountainside to pray.(E)
47 Later that night, the boat was in the middle of the lake, and he was alone on land. 48 He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Shortly before dawn he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by them, 49 but when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought he was a ghost.(F) They cried out, 50 because they all saw him and were terrified.
Immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”(G) 51 Then he climbed into the boat(H) with them, and the wind died down.(I) They were completely amazed, 52 for they had not understood about the loaves; their hearts were hardened.(J)
53 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there.(K) 54 As soon as they got out of the boat, people recognized Jesus. 55 They ran throughout that whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56 And wherever he went—into villages, towns or countryside—they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak,(L) and all who touched it were healed.
