    stirring up the waves.
26 Their ships were tossed to the heavens

    water that covered even the mountains.
At your command, the water fled;
    at the sound of your thunder, it hurried away.

Then you set a firm boundary for the seas,
    so they would never again cover the earth.

22 Have you no respect for me?
    Why don’t you tremble in my presence?

Psalm 69

For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be sung to the tune “Lilies.”

Save me, O God,

Why was no one there when I came?
    Why didn’t anyone answer when I called?

    I can turn rivers into deserts covered with dying fish.
