Matthew
8:23-27; 14:14-21
Matthew 8
23 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.
24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that
the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save
us: we perish.
26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?
Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great
calm.
27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that
even the winds and the sea obey him!
Matthew 14
14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with
compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This
is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that
they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to
eat.
17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
18 He said, Bring them hither to me.
19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took
the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed,
and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the
multitude.
20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments
that remained twelve baskets full.
21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women
and children.
