Matthew:8:18-27
wmth@Matthew:8:18 @ Seeing great crowds about Him Jesus had given directions to cross to the other side of the Lake,
wmth@Matthew:8:19 @ when a Scribe came and said to Him, »Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.«
wmth@Matthew:8:20 @ »Foxes have holes,« replied Jesus, »and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.«
wmth@Matthew:8:21 @ Another of the disciples said to Him, »Sir, allow me first to go and bury my father.«
wmth@Matthew:8:22 @ »Follow me,« said Jesus, »and leave the dead to bury their own dead.«
wmth@Matthew:8:23 @ Then He went on board a fishing-boat, and His disciples followed Him.
wmth@Matthew:8:24 @ But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.
wmth@Matthew:8:25 @ So they came and woke Him, crying, »Master, save us, we are drowning!«
wmth@Matthew:8:26 @ »Why are you so easily frightened,« He replied, »you men of little faith?« Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;
wmth@Matthew:8:27 @ and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, »What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!«
