Matthew 8:23-27

Calming of a Storm

23 And [as] he got into the boat, his disciples followed him.

24 And behold, a great storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was being inundated by the waves, but he himself was asleep.

25 And they came [and] woke him, saying, "Lord, save [us]! We are perishing!"

26 And he said to them, "Why are you fearful, [you] of little faith?" Then he got up [and] rebuked the winds and the sea and there was a great calm.

27 And the men were astonished, saying, "What sort of [man] is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?"
