psalm 107, v 23-32

Post date: Mar 10, 2015 4:19:9 PM

23 

Some went out on the sea in ships;

    they were merchants on the mighty waters.

24 

They saw the works of the Lord,

    his wonderful deeds in the deep.

25 

For he spoke and stirred up a tempest

    that lifted high the waves.

26 

They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths;

    in their peril their courage melted away.

27 

They reeled and staggered like drunkards;

    they were at their wits’ end.

28 

Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,

    and he brought them out of their distress.

29 

He stilled the storm to a whisper;

    the waves of the sea[b] were hushed.

30 

They were glad when it grew calm,

    and he guided them to their desired haven.

31 

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love

    and his wonderful deeds for mankind.

32 

Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people

    and praise him in the council of the elders.
