13. Jesus told the officer, “Go! What you believed will be done for you.” And at that moment the servant was healed.
14. When Jesus went to Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law in bed with a fever.
15. Jesus touched her hand, and the fever went away. So she got up and prepared a meal for him.
16. In the evening the people brought him many who were possessed by demons. He forced the ⌊evil⌋ spirits out of people with a command and cured everyone who was sick.
17. So what the prophet Isaiah had said came true: “He took away our weaknesses and removed our diseases.”
18. Now, when Jesus saw a crowd around him, he ordered ⌊his disciples⌋ to cross to the other side of the Sea of Galilee.
19. An expert in Moses’ Teachings came to him and said, “Teacher, I’ll follow you wherever you go.”
20. Jesus told him, “Foxes have holes, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to sleep.”
21. Another disciple said to him, “Sir, first let me go to bury my father.”
22. But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
23. Jesus’ disciples went with him as he left in a boat.
24. Suddenly, a severe storm came across the sea. The waves were covering the boat. Yet, Jesus was sleeping.
25. So they woke him up, saying, “Lord! Save us! We’re going to die!”
26. Jesus said to them, “Why do you cowards have so little faith?” Then he got up, gave an order to the wind and the sea, and the sea became very calm.
27. The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the wind and the sea obey him!”
