OET-LV But he is _saying to _them:
I am he, be_ not _fearing.

OET (OET-RV) But he told them, “Don’t worry—it’s me.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:16–21: Jesus walked on the water of Lake Galilee

In this brief section the disciples saw Jesus walking on the surface of Lake Galilee. See the parallel passages in Matthew 14:22–27 and Mark 6:45–52.

Here are other possible titles for this section:

Jesus walked on water

Jesus walked to his disciples on the water

Paragraph 6:19–21

In this paragraph Jesus showed his authority over the natural world. He was able to do what no mere human can do, walk on the surface of water.

6:20

But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.”

But he said to them, “It is I, Jesus. Do not fear.”
But Jesus encouraged/calmed them by telling them who he was.

It is I; do not be afraid: Jesus reassured the disciples by telling them who he was. It may be natural to make that more explicit. For example:

I am Jesus! Don’t be afraid! (CEV)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

λέγει

˓is˒_saying

Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
