25. For he commands and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up its waves.
26. They mount up to the heavens; they go down again to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble.
27. They reel to and fro and stagger like a drunken man, and all of their knowledge is of no avail.
28. Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivers them out of their afflictions.
29. He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
30. Then they are glad because they are at rest; so he brings them into the haven of his will.
31. Oh that men would praise the Lord for his mercy and for his wonderful works unto the sons of Adam!
32. Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33. He turned rivers into a wilderness and the watersprings into dry ground;
34. the fruitful land into salt flats, because of the wickedness of those that dwell therein.
