22 ^lImmediately he ^mmade the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, ⁿhe went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When ^oevening came, he was there alone, 24 but the boat by this time was a long way¹ from the land,² beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. 25 And ^lin the fourth watch of the night³ he came to them, walking on the sea. 26 But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, ^pthey were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear. 27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, ^q“Take heart; it is I. ^qDo not be afraid.”

28 And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” 29 He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and ^rwalked on the water and came to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind,⁴ he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, ^s“Lord, save me.” 31 Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, ^t“O you of little faith, why did you ^udoubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, ^sthe wind ceased. 33 And ^vthose in the boat ^wworshiped him, saying, ^x“Truly you are ^ythe Son of God.”

34 ^zAnd when they had crossed over, they came to land at ^aGennesaret. 35 And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent around to all that region and ^bbrought to him all who were sick 36 and implored him that they might only touch ^cthe fringe of his garment. And ^das many as touched it were made well.
