Matthew 14:18-28

18 He said, "Bring them here to me."

19 He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.

20 They all ate, and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.

21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat, and to go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

23 After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.

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

25 In the fourth watch of the night Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.

26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, "It is a ghost!" and they cried out for fear.

27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying "Cheer up! I AM! Don't be afraid."

28 Peter answered him and said, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters."
