Mark 4:38-40

Expanded Bible

³⁸ Jesus was at the ·back of the boat [stern], sleeping on a cushion. ·His followers [^LThey] woke him and said, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are ·drowning [perishing]?”

³⁹ Jesus stood up and ·commanded [reprimanded; rebuked] the wind and said to the ·waves [sea], “·Quiet! [^TPeace!] Be still!” Then the wind stopped, and it became completely calm. [^CThis parallels God’s subduing of the waters representing chaos in the OT; Ps. 65:7; 89:9; 107:29.]

⁴⁰ Jesus said to ·his followers [^Lthem], “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
