Mark 4:35-41

Christian Standard Bible

Wind and Waves Obey Jesus

³⁵ On^(A) that day, when evening had come, he told them, “Let’s cross over to the other side of the sea.” ³⁶ So they left the crowd and took him along since he was in the boat. And other boats were with him. ³⁷ A great windstorm^(B) arose, and the waves^(C) were breaking over the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. ³⁸ He was in the stern, sleeping^(D) on the cushion. So they woke him up^(E) and said to him, “Teacher! Don’t you care that we’re going to die?” ^(F)

³⁹ He got up, rebuked^(G) the wind, and said to the sea, “Silence!^(H) Be still!” The wind ceased, and there was a great calm. ⁴⁰ Then he said to them, “Why are you afraid?^(I) Do you still have no faith?”

⁴¹ And they were terrified^[a](J) and asked one another, “Who then is this? Even the wind and the sea obey^(K) him!” ^(L)
