¹¹ Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may quiet down for us?" For the sea grew more and more tempestuous. ¹² He said to them, "Pick me up and hurl me into the sea; then the sea will quiet down for you, _q for I know it is because of me that this great tempest has come upon you." ¹³ Nevertheless, the men rowed hard ₁ to get back to dry land, but they could not, for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them.
