THE
BIBLE TEXT (KJV)
Mark
4:35-41
[35]
And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let
us pass over unto the other side.
[36]And
when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the
ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
[37]And
there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so
that it was now full.
[38]And
he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake
him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
[39]And
he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace,
be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
[40]And
he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is
it that ye have no faith?
[41]And
they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is
this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
