Fourth Example: Those in Peril at Sea

Psalms 107:23-32

Those going down to the sea in ships, Doing business in many waters,

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

And He saith, and appointeth a tempest, And it lifteth up its billows,

They go up to the heavens, they go down to the depths, Their soul in evil is melted.

They reel to and fro, and move as a drunkard, And all their wisdom is swallowed up.

And they cry to Jehovah in their adversity, And from their distresses He bringeth them out.

He establisheth a whirlwind to a calm, And hushed are their billows.

And they rejoice because they are quiet, And He leadeth them to the haven of their desire.

They confess to Jehovah His kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men,

And they exalt Him in the assembly of the people, And in the seat of the elders praise Him.
