Context of Psalms 107:24
22Let them present thank offerings, and loudly proclaim what he has done! 23Some traveled on the sea in ships, and carried cargo over the vast waters. They witnessed the acts of the Lord, his amazing feats on the deep water. 25He gave the order for a windstorm, and it stirred up the waves of the sea. 26They reached up to the sky, then dropped into the depths. The sailors’ strength left them because the danger was so great.
