Psalm 107:23-32

International Standard Version

²³ Those who go down to the sea in ships,
    who work in the great waters,
²⁴ witnessed the works of the Lord—
    his awesome deeds in the ocean’s depth.
²⁵ He spoke and stirred up a windstorm
    that made its waves surge.
²⁶ The people^[a] ascended skyward and descended to the depths,
    their courage^[b] melting away in their peril.
²⁷ They reeled and staggered like a drunkard,
    as all their wisdom became useless.
²⁸ Yet when they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
    the Lord brought them out of their distress.
²⁹ He calmed the storm
    and its waves^[c] quieted down.
³⁰ So they rejoiced that the waves^[d] became quiet,
    and he led them to their desired haven.

³¹ Let them give thanks to the Lord for his gracious love
    and for his awesome deeds on behalf of mankind.
³² Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people
    and praise him in the counsel of the elders.
