Matthew 14:24-36 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

24. But the boat was already a long distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary.

25. And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea.

26. When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out in fear.

27. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid."

28. Peter said to Him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water."

29. And He said, "Come!" And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus.

30. But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!"

31. Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

32. When they got into the boat, the wind stopped.

33. And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, "You are certainly God's Son!"

34. When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.

35. And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent word into all that surrounding district and brought to Him all who were sick;

36. and they implored Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were cured.
