¹⁰The Lord causes the great flood to dwell. And the Lord will sit as King in eternity.

²⁹And he replaced the storm with a breeze, and its waves were stilled.

³⁷And a great wind storm occurred, and the waves broke over the boat, so that the boat was being filled. ³⁸And he was in the stern of the boat, sleeping on a pillow. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, does it not concern you that we are perishing?” ³⁹And rising up, he rebuked the wind, and he said to the sea: “Silence. Be stilled.” And the wind ceased. And a great tranquility occurred. ⁴⁰And he said to them: “Why are you afraid? Do you still lack faith?” And they were struck with a great fear. And they said to one another, “Who do you think this is, that both wind and sea obey him?”

³The Lord is patient and great in strength, and those who are not clean, he makes innocent. The Lord is in a tempest, and his way is a whirlwind, and the clouds are dust at his feet.

²³And climbing into a boat, his disciples followed him. ²⁴And behold, a great tempest occurred in the sea, so much so that the boat was covered with waves; yet truly, he was sleeping. ²⁵And his disciples drew near to him, and they awakened him, saying: “Lord, save us, we are perishing.” ²⁶And Jesus said to them, “Why are you afraid, O little in faith?” Then rising up, he commanded the winds, and the sea. And a great tranquility occurred. ²⁷Moreover, the men wondered, saying: “What kind of man is this? For even the winds and the sea obey him.”

²²Now it happened, on a certain day, that he climbed into a little boat with his disciples. And he said to them, “Let us make a crossing over the lake.” And they embarked. ²³And as they were sailing, he slept. And a windstorm descended over the lake. And they were taking on water and were in danger. ²⁴Then, drawing near, they awakened him, saying, “Teacher, we are perishing.” But as he rose up, he rebuked the wind and the raging water, and they ceased. And a tranquility occurred. ²⁵Then he said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they, being afraid, were amazed, saying to one another, “Who do you think this is, so that he commands both wind and sea, and they obey him?”

²Our God is our refuge and strength, a helper in the tribulations that have greatly overwhelmed us. ³Because of this, we will not be afraid when the earth will be turbulent and the mountains will be transferred into the heart of the sea. ⁴They thundered, and the waters were stirred up among them; the mountains have been disturbed by his strength.

⁷The Lord is good, and a comforter in the day of tribulation, and he knows those who hope in him.

²When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and the rivers will not cover you. When you walk through fire, you will not be burned, and the flames will not scorch you.

¹The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, in order to make known to his servants the things that must soon occur, and which he signified by sending his Angel to his servant John;

¹And it happened that, when Jesus had completed these words, he moved away from Galilee, and he arrived within the borders of Judea, across the Jordan. ²And great crowds followed him, and he healed them there. ³And the Pharisees approached him, testing him, and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to separate from his wife, no matter what the cause?” ⁴And he said to them in response, “Have you not read that he who made man from the beginning, made them male and female?” And he said: ⁵“For this reason, a man shall separate from father and mother, and he shall cling to his wife, and these two shall become one flesh. ⁶And so, now they are not two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no man separate.”

²⁸And we know that, for those who love God, all things work together unto good, for those who, in accordance with his purpose, are called to be saints.
