21 Porém, ele lhes respondeu: “Minha mãe e meus irmãos são aqueles que ouvem a palavra de Deus e a praticam”.

22 E aconteceu, num daqueles dias, que [Jesus] entrou em um barco com seus discípulos, e disse-lhes: “Passemos para o outro lado do lago”. E partiram.

23 E enquanto navegavam, [Jesus] adormeceu; então desceu uma tempestade de vento no lago, e enchiam-se [de água] , e estavam em perigo.

24 Então se aproximaram dele e o despertaram, dizendo: “Mestre, Mestre, estamos perecendo!” E ele se levantou, repreendeu o vento e as ondas da água; e pararam, e fez-se bonança.

25 E disse-lhes: “Onde está a vossa fé?” Mas eles, temendo, admiravam-se, e diziam uns aos outros: “Quem é este, que manda até aos ventos, e à água, e lhe obedecem?”
