Psalm 107:25-29
New Living Translation
25 He spoke, and the winds rose,
stirring up the waves.
26 Their ships were tossed to the heavens
and plunged again to the depths;
the sailors cringed in terror.
27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards
and were at their wits’ end.
28 “Lord, help!” they cried in their trouble,
and he saved them from their distress.
29 He calmed the storm to a whisper
and stilled the waves.

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

5 But his mother told the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Standing nearby were six stone water jars, used for Jewish ceremonial washing. Each could hold twenty to thirty gallons.[a]

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

I can turn rivers into deserts covered with dying fish.
