Mark 6:48-56 ▼

48 and He saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night He comes 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 spoke with them, and says to them, “Take courage! I AM; do not be afraid.”

51 And He went up to them into the boat, and the wind stilled, and greatly out of measure they were amazed in themselves, and were wondering,

52 for they did not understand concerning the loaves, for their heart has been hard.

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

54 and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognized Him,

55 they ran around through all that surrounding region, and they began to carry around on the pallets those being ill, where they were hearing that He is,

56 and wherever He was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the marketplaces they were laying the ailing, and were calling on Him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of His garment, and as many as were touching Him were saved.
