Jesus Walks on Water

22

Immediately he had the talmidim get in the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the crowds away.

23

After he had sent the crowds away, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Night came on, and he was there alone.

24

But by this time, the boat was several miles from shore, battling a rough sea and a headwind.

25

Around four o'clock in the morning, he came toward them, walking on the lake!

26

When the talmidim saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It's a ghost!" they said and screamed with fear.

27

But at once Yeshua spoke to them. "Courage," he said, "it is I. Stop being afraid."

28

Then Kefa called to him, "Lord, if it is really you, tell me to come to you on the water."

29

"Come!" he said. So Kefa got out of the boat and walked on the water toward Yeshua.

30

But when he saw the wind, he became afraid; and as he began to sink, he yelled, "Lord! Save me!"

31

Yeshua immediately stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, "Such little trust! Why did you doubt?"

32

As they went up into the boat, the wind ceased.

33

The men in the boat fell down before him and exclaimed, "You really are God's son!"
