Mark 6:45-52
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Walking on the Water
45 Immediately(A) He made His disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, to Bethsaida,(B) while He dismissed the crowd. 46 After He said good-bye to them, He went away to the mountain(C) to pray.(D) 47 When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land. 48 He saw them being battered(E) as they rowed,[a] because the wind was against them. Around three in the morning[b] He came toward them walking on the sea and wanted to pass by them. 49 When they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost(F) and cried out; 50 for they all saw Him and were terrified.(G) Immediately He spoke with them and said, “Have courage!(H) It is I.(I) Don’t be afraid.”(J) 51 Then He got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. They were completely astounded,[c] 52 because they had not understood about the loaves. Instead, their hearts were hardened.(K)

Mark 6:45-52
International Standard Version
Jesus Walks on the Sea(A)
45 Jesus[a] immediately had his disciples get into a boat and cross to Bethsaida ahead of him, while he sent the crowd away. 46 After saying goodbye to them, he went up on a hillside to pray. 47 When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, while he was alone on the land. 48 He saw that his disciples[b] were straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Shortly before dawn[c] he came to them, walking on the sea. He intended to go up right beside them, 49 but when they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and began to scream. 50 All of them saw him and were terrified. Immediately he told them, “Have courage! It’s me. Stop being afraid!”
51 Then he got into the boat with them, and the wind stopped blowing. The disciples[d] were utterly astounded, 52 because they didn’t understand the significance of the loaves. Instead, their hearts were hardened.
