29. He made the storm be still and their waves became calm.
30. Then they were glad because they grew silent, so he guided them to their desired harbor.
31. Let them give thanks to Yahweh for his loyal love and his wonderful deeds for the children of humankind,
32. and let them exalt him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33. He turns rivers into a wilderness and springs of water into thirsty ground,
34. a fruitful land into a salty place, because of the evil of its inhabitants.
35. He turns a wilderness into a pool of water and a dry land into springs of water.
36. And he settles the hungry there, so that they may establish a city to inhabit,
37. and sow fields and plant vineyards, that they may yield fruit at harvest.
38. And he blesses them and they multiply greatly, and he does not let their cattle become few.
39. When they become few and they are bent down from the oppression of calamity and grief,
40. he pours contempt on princes and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
41. But he protects the needy from misery, and he makes their families like a flock.
42. The upright see it and are glad, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.
43. Whoever is wise, then let him observe these things, and let them consider Yahweh’s acts of loyal love.
