Matthew 14:22-35

21st Century King James Version

²² And straightway Jesus constrained His disciples to get into a boat and to go before Him unto the other side, while He sent the multitudes away.

²³ And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up onto a mountain apart to pray. And when evening had come, He was there alone.

²⁴ But the boat was now in the midst of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.

²⁵ And in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

²⁶ And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a spirit”; and they cried out for fear.

²⁷ But straightway Jesus spoke unto them, saying, “Be of good cheer. It is I; be not afraid.”

²⁸ And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it be Thou, bid me come unto Thee on the water.”

²⁹ And He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus.

³⁰ But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, “Lord, save me!”

³¹ And immediately Jesus stretched forth His hand and caught him and said unto him, “O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?”

³² And when they had come into the boat, the wind ceased.

³³ Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “In truth Thou art the Son of God.”

³⁴ And when they had gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

³⁵ And when the men of that place learned of Him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto Him all who were diseased.
