Preacher:

 15And when it was evening,
his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude
away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.  16But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give
ye them to eat.  17And they say unto him,
We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.  18He said, Bring them hither to me.  19And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the
five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to
his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.  20And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the
fragments that remained twelve baskets full.  21And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and
children.  22And straightway Jesus
constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent
the multitudes away.  23And when he had
sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he
was there alone.  24But the ship was now
in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.  25And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto
them, walking on the sea.  26And when the
disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for
fear.  27But straightway Jesus spake unto
them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.  28And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto
thee on the water.  29And he said, Come.
And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.  30But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid;
and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.  31And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and
said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?  32And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
 33Then they that were in the ship came and
worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God. (Matthew
14:15-33, King James
Version)
