Jesus Calms a Storm

35 (A)And on that day, when evening came, He *said to them, “Let us go over to the other side.” 36 [a]And leaving the crowd, they *took Him along with them (B)in the boat, just as He was; and other boats were with Him. 37 And a great windstorm *arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat so that the boat was already filling up. 38 And Jesus Himself was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion; and they *got Him up and *said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” 39 And He woke up and (C)rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Silence! Be still.” And the wind died down and [b]it became [c]perfectly calm. 40 And He said to them, “Why are you so cowardly? (D)Do you still have no faith?” 41 And they became [d]very afraid and were saying to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”

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!”
