Psalms 107:23-31

23Those who go down to the sea in ships, Who do business on great waters;

24They have seen the works of the Lord, And His wonders in the deep.

25For He spoke and raised up a stormy wind, Which lifted up the waves of the sea.

26They went up toward the heavens [on the crest of the wave], they went down again to the depths [of the watery trough]; Their courage melted away in their misery.

27They staggered and trembled like a drunken man, And were at their wits’ end [all their wisdom was useless].

28Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, And He brought them out of their distresses.

29He hushed the storm to a gentle whisper, So that the waves of the sea were still.

30Then they were glad because of the calm, And He guided them to their desired haven (harbor).

31Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness, And for His wonderful acts to the children of men!
