Mark 4:35-41
Chapter 4
35
Calming a Storm
Later that day, as evening approached, Jesus told them: “Let’s go across to the other side of the lake.”36
They left the crowd and took him along in the boat he was sitting in, while other boats set out with him.
37
Then a storm gathered, and it started to blow fiercely. The waves spilled into the boat, quickly filling it with water.
38
Jesus was sleeping on a cushion in the stern.
They woke him up and said:
“Master, don’t you care if we drown?”
39
And rising up, Jesus rebuked the wind and ordered the sea:
“Quiet now! Be still!”
The wind dropped, and there was a great calm.
40
Then Jesus said to them: “Why are you so afraid? Do you still lack faith?”
41
But they were terrified and said to one another:
“Who can this be? Even the wind and the sea obey him!”
