Matthew 14:27-36 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

27. At once, Jesus said to them, “Don't worry! I am Jesus. Don't be afraid.”

28. Peter replied, “Lord, if it is really you, tell me to come to you on the water.”

29. “Come on!” Jesus said. Peter then got out of the boat and started walking on the water towards him.

30. But when Peter saw how strong the wind was, he was afraid and started sinking. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted.

31. Straight away, Jesus reached out his hand. He helped Peter up and said, “You don't have much faith. Why do you doubt?”

32. When Jesus and Peter got into the boat, the wind died down.

33. The men in the boat worshipped Jesus and said, “You really are the Son of God!”

34. Jesus and his disciples crossed the lake and came to shore near the town of Gennesaret.

35. The people found out that he was there, and they sent word to everyone who lived in that part of the country. So they brought all the sick people to Jesus.

36. They begged him just to let them touch his clothes, and everyone who did was healed.
