Καὶ εὐθέως ⸀ἠνάγκασεν τοὺς μαθητὰς ἐμβῆναι ⸀εἰς πλοῖον καὶ προάγειν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ πέραν, ἕως οὗ ἀπολύσῃ τοὺς ὄχλους.

Subito dopo costrinse i discepoli a salire sulla barca e a precederlo sull'altra riva, finché non avesse congedato la folla.

Immediately afterward he compelledⓘ the disciples disciplesⓘ to get into the boat and to go ahead of him to the other shore, until he had dismissedⓘ the crowd of the ʽam ha-aretz (the common folk not bound to the purity of the ḥaverim) ʽam ha-aretzⓘ.

καὶ ἀπολύσας τοὺς ὄχλους ἀνέβη εἰς τὸ ὄρος κατ’ ἰδίαν προσεύξασθαι. ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης μόνος ἦν ἐκεῖ.

Congedata la folla, salì sul monte, in disparte, a pregare. Venuta la sera, egli se ne stava lassù, da solo.

Having dismissed the crowd, he went up onto the mountainⓘ, apart, to prayⓘ. When evening came, he was there alone.

τὸ δὲ πλοῖον ἤδη ⸂σταδίους πολλοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἀπεῖχεν⸃, βασανιζόμενον ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων, ἦν γὰρ ἐναντίος ὁ ἄνεμος.

La barca intanto distava già molte miglia da terra ed era agitata dalle onde: il vento infatti era contrario.

Meanwhile the boat was already many miles from land and was battered by the wavesⓘ: for the wind was contraryⓘ.

τετάρτῃ δὲ φυλακῇ τῆς νυκτὸς ⸀ἦλθεν πρὸς ⸀αὐτοὺς περιπατῶν ἐπὶ ⸂τὴν θάλασσαν⸃.

Sul finire della notte egli andò verso di loro camminando sul mare.

Toward the end of the nightⓘ he came toward them walking on the seaⓘ.

⸂οἱ δὲ μαθηταὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν⸃ ἐπὶ ⸂τῆς θαλάσσης⸃ περιπατοῦντα ἐταράχθησαν λέγοντες ὅτι Φάντασμά ἐστιν, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ φόβου ἔκραξαν.

Vedendolo camminare sul mare, i discepoli furono sconvolti e dissero: «È un fantasma!», e gridarono dalla paura.

Seeing him advancing over the billows, the disciples were terrifiedⓘ and said: «It is a ghostⓘ!», and they cried out in fear.

⸀εὐθὺς δὲ ἐλάλησεν ⸂αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς⸃ λέγων· Θαρσεῖτε, ἐγώ εἰμι· μὴ φοβεῖσθε.

Ma subito Gesù parlò loro dicendo: «Coraggio, sono io, non abbiate paura!».

But at once Jesus spoke to them, saying: «Take courageⓘ, it is Iⓘ, do not be afraid!».

Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ⸂αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος εἶπεν⸃· Κύριε, εἰ σὺ εἶ, κέλευσόν με ⸂ἐλθεῖν πρὸς σὲ⸃ ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα·

Pietro allora gli rispose: «Signore, se sei tu, comandami di venire da te sulle acque».

Peter then answered him: «Lordⓘ, if it is you, command meⓘ to come to you on the waters».

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Ἐλθέ. καὶ καταβὰς ἀπὸ τοῦ ⸀πλοίου Πέτρος περιεπάτησεν ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα ⸂καὶ ἦλθεν⸃ πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν.

Ed egli disse: «Vieni!». Pietro, sceso dalla barca, camminò sulle acque e andò verso Gesù.

And he said: «Comeⓘ!». Peter, having stepped down from the boat, walked on the waters and went toward Jesus.

βλέπων δὲ τὸν ἄνεμον ⸀ἰσχυρὸν ἐφοβήθη, καὶ ἀρξάμενος καταποντίζεσθαι ἔκραξεν λέγων· Κύριε, σῶσόν με.

Ma, vedendo che il vento era forte, ebbe paura e, cominciando ad affondare, gridò: «Signore, salvami!».

But, seeing that the wind was strongⓘ, he was afraid and, beginning to sinkⓘ, cried out: «Lord, save meⓘ!».

εὐθέως δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα ἐπελάβετο αὐτοῦ καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· Ὀλιγόπιστε, εἰς τί ἐδίστασας;

E subito Gesù tese la mano, lo afferrò e gli disse: «Uomo di poca fede, perché hai dubitato?».

And immediately Jesus stretched out his handⓘ, seized him, and said to him: «You of little faithⓘ, why did you doubtⓘ?».

καὶ ⸀ἀναβάντων αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον ἐκόπασεν ὁ ἄνεμος.

Appena saliti sulla barca, il vento cessò.

As soon as they had climbed back aboard, the wind ceasedⓘ.

οἱ δὲ ἐν τῷ ⸀πλοίῳ προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ λέγοντες· Ἀληθῶς θεοῦ υἱὸς εἶ.

Quelli che erano sulla barca si prostrarono davanti a lui dicendo: «Davvero tu sei Figlio di Dio!».

Those who were in the boat prostrated themselves before himⓘ, saying: «Truly you are Son of Godⓘ!».

Καὶ διαπεράσαντες ἦλθον ⸂ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν εἰς⸃ Γεννησαρέτ.

καὶ ἐπιγνόντες αὐτὸν οἱ ἄνδρες τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου ἀπέστειλαν εἰς ὅλην τὴν περίχωρον ἐκείνην, καὶ προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ πάντας τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας,

E la gente del luogo, riconosciutolo, diffuse la notizia in tutta la regione; gli portarono tutti i malati

And the people of that placeⓘ, having recognized himⓘ, spread the news throughout the whole region; they brought to him all the sickⓘ

καὶ παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν ἵνα μόνον ἅψωνται τοῦ κρασπέδου τοῦ ἱματίου αὐτοῦ· καὶ ὅσοι ἥψαντο διεσώθησαν.

e lo pregavano di poter toccare almeno il lembo del suo mantello. E quanti lo toccarono furono guariti.

and they begged him to be allowed to touch at least the tzitzit tzitzitⓘ of his cloak, the fringe commanded by the Torah Torahⓘ: there resonates here the healing brought «in his wingsⓘ». And as many as touched him were healedⓘ.
