Mark 6:45-56


Jesus Walks on the Sea

45 aAnd immediately Jesus made His disciples get into bthe boat and go ahead of Him to the other side to cBethsaida, while He Himself was sending the crowd away.
46 And after abidding them farewell, He left bfor the mountain to pray.
47 And when it was evening, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land.
48 And seeing them 1straining at the oars, for the wind was against them, at about the 2afourth watch of the night He *came to them, walking on the sea; and He was intending to pass by them. 49 But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought that it was a ghost, and cried out; 50 for they all saw Him and were 1terrified. But immediately He spoke with them and *said to them, “aTake courage; it is I, bdo not be afraid.” 51 Then He got into athe boat with them, and the wind stopped; and they were 1utterly amazed, 52 for athey 1had not gained any insight about the loaves, but their 2heart bwas hardened.

Many Healed at Gennesaret

53 aAnd when they had crossed over they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.
54 And when they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him, 55 and ran about that whole region and began to carry here and there on their mats those who were sick, to 1the place they heard He was. 56 And wherever He was entering villages, or cities, or countryside, they were laying the sick in the marketplaces, and pleading with Him that they might just atouch bthe fringe of His garment; and as many as touched it were being 1saved from their sicknesses.
