They woke him saying, "Master, don't you care that we'll capsize and drown?" He got up and chided the wind, and said to the sea: "Silence, be still!" The wind then stopped, and there was complete calm. He asked them, "Why are you so afraid? Why haven't you any [[faith]]?" Filled with awe, they asked each other: "What kind of Man is He, such that even the wind and sea obey Him?" | | Suddenly a fierce storm came, with strong winds.
