31 Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”
And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.
33 Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”
34 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.
