Luke 8:22-25
22Now it happened on one of the days that he and his disciples got into a boat, and he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side of the lake.” And they set sail. 23And as they sailed, he fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were being swamped and were in danger. 24And they came and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” And he woke up and rebuked the wind and the surge of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm. 25And he said to them, “Where is your faith?” And being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
23And when he got into a boat, his disciples followed him. 24And look, a great shaking arose on the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves; but he was sleeping. 25And they came and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us; we are perishing!” 26And he says to them, “Why are you afraid, you of little faith?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. 27And the men were amazed, saying, “What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?”
35And he says to them on that day, when evening had come, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36And leaving the crowd, they take him along, just as he was, in the boat; and other boats were with him. 37And a great windstorm arises, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they wake him and say to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39And waking up, he rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Be silent! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40And he said to them, “Why are you cowards? Do you still not have faith?” 41And they feared with a great fear and were saying to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
