Original text and translations

German text Da traten die Jünger zu Jesu und wecketen ihn auff und sprachen: "Herr, hilf uns wir verderben". Da Sagt er zu ihnen: "O ihr kleingleubigen, warumb seyd ihr so furchtsam?" und Stund auff, und betrawete den Wind und das Meer da ward es ganz stille. Die Menschen aber verwunderten sich und sprachen: "Was ist das für ein Mann, daß ihm Wind und Meer gehorsam ist?" "betrawete" (in 1545 Bible: "bedräuete") = 'Bedrohte'

English translation And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish. And he saith unto them, O ye of little faith, Why are ye fearful? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this that even the winds and the sea obey him! Matth. 8:25-27 (KJV)
