John 6:14-21
14ThereforeG3767 when the peopleG444 sawG3708 the 1signG4592 whichG3739 He had performedG4160, they saidG3004, “ThisG3778 is trulyG230 the 2ProphetG4396 who is to comeG2064 into the worldG2889.”
15SoG3767 JesusG2424, awareG1097 that they 3intendedG3195 to comeG2064 and takeG726 Him by forceG726 4to makeG4160 Him kingG935, 5withdrewG402 againG3825 to 6the mountainG3735 by HimselfG846, aloneG3441.
16NowG1161 whenG5613 eveningG3798 cameG1096, His 7disciplesG3101 wentG2597 downG2597 to the seaG2281, 17and after gettingG1684 into a boatG4143, they started to crossG2064G4008 the seaG2281 8to CapernaumG2746. It had alreadyG2235 becomeG1096 darkG4653, and JesusG2424 had not yetG3768 comeG2064 to them. 18InG5037 additionG5037, the seaG2281 began gettingG1326 roughG1326, because a strongG3173 windG417 was blowingG4154. 19ThenG3767, when they had rowedG1643 aboutG5613 9twenty-fiveG1501G4002 orG2228 thirtyG5144 stadiaG4712, they sawG2334 JesusG2424 walkingG4043 on the seaG2281 and comingG1096 nearG1451 the boatG4143; and they wereG5399 frightenedG5399. 20But He saidG3004 to them, “It is I; 1011do not beG5399 afraidG5399.” 21SoG3767 they were willingG2309 to takeG2983 Him into the boatG4143, and immediatelyG2112 the boatG4143 was at the landG1093 to whichG3739 they were goingG5217.
