Matthew 14:23-27
English Standard Version
23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, (A)he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When (B)evening came, he was there alone, 24 but the boat by this time was a long way[a] from the land,[b] beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. 25 And (C)in the fourth watch of the night[c] he came to them, walking on the sea. 26 But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, (D)they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear. 27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, (E)“Take heart; it is I. (F)Do not be afraid.”
