and about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh to them
walking upon the sea, and he would have passed by them.
6:49. But they seeing him walking upon the sea, thought it was an
apparition, and they cried out.
6:50. For they all saw him, and were troubled bled. And immediately he
spoke with them, and said to them: Have a good heart, it is I, fear ye
not.
6:51. And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind ceased: and
they were far more astonished within themselves:
6:52. For they understood not concerning the loaves; for their heart was
blinded.
6:53. And when they had passed over, they came into the land of
Genezareth, and set to the shore.
6:54. And when they were gone out of the ship, immediately they knew
