A reading from the holy gospel according to Luke
And when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea. And when they had gone up into a ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum; and it was now dark, and Jesus had not come unto them. And the sea arose, by reason of a great wind that blew. When they had rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship, and they were afraid. But he said to them: It is I; be not afraid. They were willing therefore to take him into the ship; and presently the ship was at the land to which they were going.
EVANGILE DE JESUS CHRIST SELON ST. LUC
Quand le soir fut venu, ses disciples descendirent au bord de la mer. Étant montés dans une barque, ils traversaient la mer pour se rendre à Capernaüm. Il faisait déjà nuit, et Jésus ne les avait pas encore rejoints. Il soufflait un grand vent, et la mer était agitée. Après avoir ramé environ vingt-cinq ou trente stades, ils virent Jésus marchant sur la mer et s’approchant de la barque. Et ils eurent peur. Mais Jésus leur dit: C’est moi; n’ayez pas peur! Ils voulaient donc le prendre dans la barque, et aussitôt la barque aborda au lieu où ils allaient.
