Jesus Calms a Storm

35 (A)On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves (B)were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39 And he awoke and (C)rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and (D)there was a great calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you (E)so afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41 And they were filled with great fear and said to one another, (F)“Who then is this, that even (G)the wind and the sea obey him?”

The Wind Ran Out of Breath

35-38 Late that day he said to them, “Let’s go across to the other side.” They took him in the boat as he was. Other boats came along. A huge storm came up. Waves poured into the boat, threatening to sink it. And Jesus was in the stern, head on a pillow, sleeping! They roused him, saying, “Teacher, is it nothing to you that we’re going down?”

39-40 Awake now, he told the wind to pipe down and said to the sea, “Quiet! Settle down!” The wind ran out of breath; the sea became smooth as glass. Jesus reprimanded the disciples: “Why are you such cowards? Don’t you have any faith at all?”

41 They were in absolute awe, staggered. “Who is this, anyway?” they asked. “Wind and sea at his beck and call!”

35 І сказав Він до них того дня, коли вечір настав: Переплиньмо на той бік.

36 І, лишивши народ, узяли із собою Його, як у човні Він був; і інші човни були з Ним.

37 І знялася ось буря велика, а хвилі вливалися в човен, аж човен водою вже був переповнився!

38 А Він спав на кормі на подушці... І вони розбудили Його та й сказали Йому: Учителю, чи Тобі байдуже, що ми гинемо?...

39 Тоді Він устав, і вітрові заборонив, і до моря сказав: Мовчи, перестань! І стих вітер, і тиша велика настала...

40 І сказав Він до них: Чого ви такі полохливі? Чому віри не маєте?

41 А вони налякалися страхом великим, і говорили один до одного: Хто ж це такий, що вітер і море слухняні Йому?
