Jesus said to his disciples,
“Let us go over to the other side.” So
they went in the boat. A furious squall
came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a
cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we
drown?”
Jesus got up, rebuked the
wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!”
Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, “Why are you so
afraid? Do you still have no faith?” They were terrified and asked each other,
“Who is this? Even the wind and the
waves obey him!”
