| But when they saw him walking on the water, they cried out in terror, thinking he was a ghost. They were all terrified when they saw him. But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don’t be afraid,” he said. “Take courage!

And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid. |
