Matthew 8:23-27

Jesus Calms a Storm

23 1And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him.
24 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but 2he was asleep.
25 And they went and woke him, saying, 3"Save us, Lord; we are perishing."
26 And he said to them, "Why are you 4afraid, 5O you of little faith?" Then he rose and 6rebuked the winds and the sea, and 7there was a great calm.
27 And the men 8marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even 9winds and sea obey him?"
