24
But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.
25
So they came and woke Him, crying, "Master, save us, we are drowning!"
26
"Why are you so easily frightened," He replied, "you men of little faith?" Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;
27
and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, "What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!"

They cried aloud, "What hast Thou to do with us, Thou Son of God? Hast Thou come here to torment us before the time?"
