Jesus Walks on the Water

^45 (A)Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into ^(B)the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side to ^(C)Bethsaida, while He Himself was sending the crowd away. ⁴⁶ After ^(D)bidding them farewell, He left ^(E)for the mountain to pray.

⁴⁷ When it was evening, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land. ⁴⁸ Seeing them ^[a]straining at the oars, for the wind was against them, at about the ^[b](F)fourth watch of the night He *came to them, walking on the sea; and He intended to pass by them. ⁴⁹ But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out; ⁵⁰ for they all saw Him and were ^[c]terrified. But immediately He spoke with them and *said to them, “^(G)Take courage; it is I, ^(H)do not be afraid.” ⁵¹ Then He got into ^(I)the boat with them, and the wind stopped; and they were utterly astonished, ⁵² for ^(J)they ^[d]had not gained any insight from the incident of the loaves, but ^[e]their heart ^(K)was hardened.

Healing at Gennesaret

^53 (L)When they had crossed over they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore. ⁵⁴ When they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him, ⁵⁵ and ran about that whole country and began to carry here and there on their pallets those who were sick, to ^[f]the place they heard He was. ⁵⁶ Wherever He entered villages, or cities, or countryside, they were laying the sick in the market places, and imploring Him that they might just ^(M)touch ^(N)the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were being cured.
