John 6:13-20

¹³The disciples did so, and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves, which were left after all had eaten.

¹⁴When the people saw the signs which Jesus gave, they said, “This is certainly the prophet who was to come into the world.”

¹⁵But Jesus, having discovered that they were intending to come and carry him off to make him king, went again up the hill, quite alone.

¹⁶When evening fell, his disciples went down to the sea,

¹⁸the sea, too, was getting rough, for a strong wind was blowing.

¹⁹When they had rowed three or four miles, they caught sight of him walking on the water and approaching the boat, and they were frightened.

²⁰But Jesus said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid!”
