Matthew 14:22-33

²²Immediately afterward He compelled the disciples to get into the boat and to go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away. ²³After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone. ²⁴But the boat was already a long distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary. ²⁵And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea. ²⁶When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out in fear. ²⁷But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”

²⁸Peter responded and said to Him, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” ²⁹And He said, “Come!” And Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water, and came toward Jesus. ³⁰But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and when he began to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” ³¹Immediately Jesus reached out with His hand and took hold of him, and *said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?” ³²When they got into the boat, the wind stopped. ³³And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “You are truly God’s Son!”
