Psalms 107:23-31

23Those who sail on the sea in ships, who do business on the high seas,

24have seen what the Lord can do, the miracles he performed in the depths of the sea.

25He spoke, and a storm began to blow, and it made the waves rise high.

26The sailors aboard ship rose toward the sky. They plunged into the depths. Their courage melted in ⌞the face of⌟ disaster.

27They reeled and staggered like drunks, and all their skills as sailors became useless.

28In their distress they cried out to the Lord. He led them from their troubles.

29He made the storm calm down, and the waves became still.

30The sailors were glad that the storm was quiet. He guided them to the harbor they had longed for.

31Let them give thanks to the Lord because of his mercy. He performed his miracles for Adam’s descendants.
