Mark 6:47-52 Part 2 of 2

    Later that night, the boat was in the middle of the lake, and he was alone on land. He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Shortly before dawn he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by them, but when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought he was a ghost. They cried out, because they all saw him and were terrified.

    Immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid," Then he climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. They were completely amazed, for they had not understood about the loaves; their hearts were hardened.

Immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid."

But Jesus immediately said to them: "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid."

Then he climbed into the boat with them and the wind died down.

Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

    Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked them: "Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened? Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don't you remember? When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?"

    "Twelve," they replied.

    "And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?"

    They answered, "Seven."

    He said to them, "Do you still not understand?"
