²² And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;

²³ and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,

²⁴ and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

²⁵ And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,

²⁶ and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying -- `It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;

²⁷ and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, `Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'

²⁸ And Peter answering him said, `Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'

²⁹ and he said, `Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,

³⁰ but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, `Sir, save me.'

³¹ And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, `Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'

³² and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,

³³ and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly -- God's Son art thou.'

³⁴ And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,

⁴⁵ And immediately he constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before to the other side, unto Bethsaida, till he may let the multitude away,

⁴⁶ and having taken leave of them, he went away to the mountain to pray.

⁴⁷ And evening having come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land;

⁴⁸ and he saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night he doth come to them walking on the sea, and wished to pass by them.

⁴⁹ And they having seen him walking on the sea, thought [it] to be an apparition, and cried out,

⁵⁰ for they all saw him, and were troubled, and immediately he spake with them, and saith to them, `Take courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'

⁵¹ And he went up unto them to the boat, and the wind lulled, and greatly out of measure were they amazed in themselves, and were wondering,

⁵² for they understood not concerning the loaves, for their heart hath been hard.

⁵³ And having passed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,

¹⁵ Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

¹⁶ And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

¹⁷ and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

¹⁸ the sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised,

¹⁹ having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;

²⁰ and he saith to them, `I am [he], be not afraid;'

²¹ they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.
