Mark 4:35-41

Living Bible

³⁵ As evening fell, Jesus said to his disciples, “Let’s cross to the other side of the lake.” ³⁶ So they took him just as he was and started out, leaving the crowds behind (though other boats followed). ³⁷ But soon a terrible storm arose. High waves began to break into the boat until it was nearly full of water and about to sink. ³⁸ Jesus was asleep at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. Frantically they wakened him, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you even care that we are all about to drown?”

³⁹ Then he rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Quiet down!” And the wind fell, and there was a great calm!

⁴⁰ And he asked them, “Why were you so fearful? Don’t you even yet have confidence in me?”

⁴¹ And they were filled with awe and said among themselves, “Who is this man, that even the winds and seas obey him?”
