24
They see the works of the Lord, And His wonders in the deep.
25
For He commands and raises the stormy wind, Which lifts up the waves of the sea.
26
They mount up to the heavens, They go down again to the depths; Their soul melts because of trouble.
27
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits' end.
28
Then they cry out to the Lord in their trouble, And He brings them out of their distresses.
29
He calms the storm, So that its waves are still.
30
Then they are glad because they are quiet; So He guides them to their desired haven.
31
Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
32
Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people, And praise Him in the company of the elders.
33
He turns rivers into a wilderness, And the watersprings into dry ground;
34
A fruitful land into barrenness, For the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
