Jesus Walks on Water
45Immediately Jesus made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself dismissed the crowd. 46After he had sent them off, he went up the mountain to pray.
47When it was evening, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on the land. 48He saw them straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night,[] he went to them, walking on the sea. He was ready to pass by them. 49When they saw him walking on the sea, they thought he was a ghost, and they cried out. 50They all saw him and were terrified. Immediately he spoke with them and said, “Take courage! It is I.[] Do not be afraid.” 51Then he climbed up into the boat with them, and the wind stopped. They were completely amazed, 52because they had not understood about the loaves. Instead, their hearts were hardened.
