Jesus Walks on the Sea^(A)

^45 (B)Immediately He ^[a]made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent the multitude away. ⁴⁶ And when He had sent them away, He ^(C)departed to the mountain to pray. ⁴⁷ Now when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea; and He was alone on the land. ⁴⁸ Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and ^(D)would have passed them by. ⁴⁹ And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a ^(E)ghost, and cried out; ⁵⁰ for they all saw Him and were troubled. But immediately He talked with them and said to them, ^(F)“Be^[b] of good cheer! It is I; do not be ^(G)afraid.” ⁵¹ Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ^(H)ceased. And they were greatly ^(I)amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled. ⁵² For ^(J)they had not understood about the loaves, because their ^(K)heart was hardened.
