Mark 4:35-41 NWT
35 And on that day, when evening had fallen, he said to them: "Let us cross to the other shore." 36 So, after they had dismissed the crowd, they took him in the boat, just as he was, and there were other boats with him. 37 Now a great violent windstorm broke out, and the waves kept dashing into the boat, so that the boat was close to being swamped. 38 But he was in the stern, sleeping upon a pillow. So they woke him up and said to him: "Teacher, do you not care that we are about to perish?" 39 With that he roused himself and rebuked the wind and said to the sea: "Hush! Be quiet!" And the wind abated, and a great calm set in. 40 So he said to them: "Why are YOU fainthearted? Do YOU not yet have any faith?" 41 But they felt an unusual fear, and they would say to one another: "Who really is this, because even the wind and the sea obey him?

(38) And _He_ was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. And they wake Him up and say to Him, "Teacher, You are concerned that we perish, are You not?" (39) And having woken up, He rebuked the wind and said to the sea, "Be silent! Be muzzled [fig., Be still]!" And the wind abated, and [there] was a great calm. (40) And He said to them, "Why are you* so cowardly? How [is it that] you* do not have faith?" (41) Then they feared a great fear. And they were saying to one another, "Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea obey [or, are subject to] Him?"

Mark 4:35-41 CEV
(35) That evening, Jesus said to his disciples, "Let's cross to the east side." (36) So they left the crowd, and his disciples started across the lake with him in the boat. Some other boats followed along. (37) Suddenly a windstorm struck the lake. Waves started splashing into the boat, and it was about to sink. (38) Jesus was in the back of the boat with his head on a pillow, and he was asleep. His disciples woke him and said, "Teacher, don't you care that we're about to drown?" (39) Jesus got up and ordered the wind and the waves to be quiet. The wind stopped, and everything was calm. (40) Jesus asked his disciples, "Why were you afraid? Don't you have any faith?" (41) Now they were more afraid than ever and said to each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"

Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
