After He had dismissed the multitude, they took Him, even "as He was," into the boat, and hastily set off. But they were not to depart alone. There were other fishing boats lying near the shore, and these were quickly crowded with people who followed Jesus, eager still to see and hear Him.

Da han havde sendt skarerne bort, tog de ham med, som han sad i båden, og skyndte sig at komme af sted. Men de kom ikke til at sejle bort alene. Der lå andre fiskerbåde nær ved kysten, og de fyldtes hurtigt med mennesker, som fulgte efter Jesus, stadig ivrige efter at se og høre ham.
