35

And on that day, when the evening had come, he said to them, Let us go over to the other side.

36

And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

37

And a great storm of wind came up, and the waves came into the boat, so that the boat was now becoming full.

38

And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

39

And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.
