Mark 6:46–56
46After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.↗
47When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.↗
48Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have passed by them,↗
49but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;↗
50for they all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them and said to them,“Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”↗
51He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed among themselves, and marveled;↗
52for they hadn’t understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.↗
53When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore.↗
54When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,↗
55and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was.↗
56Wherever he entered—into villages, or into cities, or into the country—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.↗
