Wind and Wave Obey Jesus(A)

22 (B)Now it happened, on a certain day, that He got into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side of the lake.” And they launched out. 23 But as they sailed He fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in [a]jeopardy. 24 And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!”

Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm. 25 But He said to them, (C)“Where is your faith?”

And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, (D)“Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!”

A Demon-Possessed Man Healed(E)

26 (F)Then they sailed to the country of the [b]Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee. 27 And when He stepped out on the land, there met Him a certain man from the city who had demons [c]for a long time. And he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house but in the tombs. 28 When he saw Jesus, he (G)cried out, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, (H)“What have I to do with (I)You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!”
