The Great Calm

35And he says to them on that day, when evening had come, “Let us go across to the other side.”

36And leaving the crowd, they take him with them just as he was, in the boat, and other boats were with him.

37And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling.

38But he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?”

39And having awakened, he rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Be silent! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40And he said to them, “Why are you so fearful? Do you still have no faith?”

41And they feared a great fear, and they said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
