23 After dismissing the crowds, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone.
24 But the boat was already over a mile from land, battered by the waves, because the wind was against them.
25 Around three in the morning, He came toward them walking on the sea.
26 When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost! ” they said, and cried out in fear.
27 Immediately Jesus spoke to them. “Have courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
28 “Lord, if it’s You,” Peter answered Him, “command me to come to You on the water.”
29 “Come! ” He said.And climbing out of the boat, Peter started walking on the water and came toward Jesus.
