Matthew 8:23-27 And so, with Him stepping into a boat, His disciples at once followed Him.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ And so, with Him stepping into a boat, His disciples at once followed Him. ²⁴ Later – look and consider! – a great quaking occurred (an earthquake happened) in the midst of the lake (or: sea) so that the boat was being repeatedly covered – to the point of being hidden and swamped – by the waves. Yet He kept on sleeping (or: continued being fast asleep). ²⁵ So, approaching, they aroused Him, repeatedly saying, "O Lord (Master)! Rescue [us] (Save [us]) at once! We are progressively being destroyed and are perishing!" ²⁶ And so He then says to them, "Why are you men frightened and lacking in courage? [You are] men with little trust and small faith!" At that point being aroused and getting up, He gave a respectful directive to (or: spoke a value-based command upon) the winds and the lake (sea), and a great calm was birthed (or: it came to be utterly still). ²⁷ So the men were astounded with puzzled amazement, and one after another kept saying, "What kind (or: sort) of Person is this Man, that even the winds and the lake (or: sea) are in the habit of being obedient to Him (or: are now submissively listening and paying compliant attention to Him)?"
