Mattityahu 8:23-29 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

23. And when he embarked into the sirah, Moshiach's talmidim followed him.

24. And hinei! a great storm came up on the lake, so that the sirah (boat) was about to be covered by the waves. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was sleeping.

25. And Moshiach's talmidim approached and woke him, saying, Adoneinu, hoshieinu! We are perishing!

26. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Why are you fearful, you ones of little emunah? Then, arising, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm.

27. And the men were astonished, saying, What sort of man is this!? That even the winds and the sea obey him!

28. And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came to the other side of the lake, in the land of the people of Gadara, he was met by two men possessed by shedim (demons); these men were coming out of the kevarim (tombs) of the burial caves and were so dangerous no one could pass by on that road.

29. And they screamed, saying, Mah lanu valach, Ben HaElohim? (What to us and to you, Ben HaElohim? T.N. i.e., What business do you have with us, Ben HaElohim) Have you come here to torture us before the time [of the Yom HaDin, the Day of Judgment]?
