Jesus Calms the Storm(A)

35 That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.” 36 Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat.(B) There were also other boats with him. 37 A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38 Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”

39 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”(C)

41 They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

35 ¶ Menm jou sa a, lè solèy fin kouche, Jezi di disip li yo: -Ann janbe lòt bò lanmè a non.

36 Se konsa disip yo te kite foul moun yo dèyè, yo pati ansanm ak Jezi nan kannòt kote li te chita a. Te gen lòt kannòt tou ki te ale avèk yo.

37 Yon gwo van vin leve, lanm yo kòmanse antre nan kannòt la. Yon sèl kou a, kannòt la t'ap fin plen dlo.

38 Jezi menm, lè sa a, te nan dèyè kannòt la. Li t'ap dòmi, tèt li apiye sou yon ti zòrye. Disip li yo souke l', yo di l' konsa: -Mèt, mèt, se mouri n'ap mouri wi! Sa pa di ou anyen?

39 Jezi leve, li pale byen fò ak van an, li di: -Pe la. Li di dlo a: -Rete trankil. Latou, van an tonbe epi vin gen yon gran kalmi.

40 Apre sa, li di yo: -Men, poukisa nou pè konsa? Nou poko gen konfyans toujou?

41 Men disip yo te pè anpil anpil, yonn t'ap di lòt konsa: -Ki moun li ye menm, pou jouk van ak dlo lanmè a obeyi li?
