Mark 4:35-41 The Calming of the Storm
35. On that day, when evening had come, he said
to them, "Let us go across to the other side."
36. And leaving the crowd behind, they took him
with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him.
37. A great wind storm arose, and the waves
beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped.
38. But he was in the stern, asleep on the
cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, "Teacher, do
you not care that we are perishing?"
39. He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said
to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" Then the wind ceased,
and there was a dead calm.
40. He said to them, "Why are you afraid?
Have you still no faith?"
41. And they were filled with great awe and
said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind
and the sea obey him?"
Mark 6:30-44 The Feeding of the 5,000
30. The apostles gathered around Jesus, and
told him all that they had done and taught.
31. He said to them, "Come away to a
deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while." For many
were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.
32. And they went away in the boat to a
deserted place by themselves.
33. Now many saw them going and recognized
them, and they hurried there on foot from all the towns and
arrived ahead of them.
34. As he went ashore, he saw a great crowd;
and he had compassion for them, because they were like sheep
without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35. When it grew late, his disciples came to
him and said, "This is a deserted place, and the hour is now
very late;
36. send them away so that they may go into the
surrounding country and villages and buy something for themselves
to eat."
37. But he answered them, "You give them
something to eat." They said to him, "Are we to go and
buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give it to them to
eat?"
38. And he said to them, "How many loaves
have you? Go and see." When they had found out, they said,
"Five, and two fish."
39. Then he ordered them to get all the people
to sit down in groups on the green grass.
40. So they sat down in groups of hundreds and
of fifties.
41. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he
looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave
them to his disciples to set before the people; and he divided
the two fish among them all.
42. And all ate and were filled;
43. and they took up twelve baskets full of
broken pieces and of the fish.
44. Those who had eaten the loaves numbered
five thousand men.
Mark 7:24-30 Daughter of the Syro-Phoenician Woman
24. From there Jesus set out and went away to
the region of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to
know he was there. Yet he could not escape notice,
25. but a woman whose little daughter had an
unclean spirit immediately heard about him, and she came and
bowed down at his feet.
26. Now the woman was a Gentile, of
Syrophoenician origin. She begged him to cast the demon out of
her daughter.
27. He said to her, "Let the children be
fed first, for it is not fair to take the children's food and
throw it to the dogs."
28. But she answered him, "Sir, even the
dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs."
29. Then he said to her, "For saying that,
you may go -- the demon has left your daughter."
30. So she went home, found the child lying on
the bed, and the demon gone.
