Matthew 14:22–36

²²And 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; ²³and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone, ²⁴and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary. ²⁵And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea, ²⁶and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying—‘It is an apparition,’ and from the fear they cried out; ²⁷and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, ‘Be of good courage, I am he, be not afraid.’ ²⁸And Peter answering him said, ‘Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;’ ²⁹and he said, ‘Come;’ and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus, ³⁰but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, ‘Sir, save me.’ ³¹And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, ‘Little faith! for what didst thou waver?’ ³²and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled, ³³and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, ‘Truly—God’s Son art thou.’

³⁴And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret, ³⁵and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill, ³⁶and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
