Mark 6:50

48 Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and ^awould have passed them by.

49 And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed it was a ^aghost, and cried out;

50 for they all saw Him and were troubled. But immediately He talked with them and said to them, ^a“Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be ^bafraid.”

51 Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ^aceased. And they were greatly ^bamazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled.

52 For ^athey had not understood about the loaves, because their ^bheart was hardened.
