(4) To the Sea-faring verse 23 Who go to sea in ships, their acts in waters great who do verse 24 These do behold Jehovahs facts, i'th' deep his wonders too. verse 25 For he commandeth instantly the stormy wind doth rise Which lifts the waves thereof on high, they mount up to the skies.
verse 26 Down to the depths again they strike, their soul with Ill doth quail. verse 27 They reel and stagger drunkard-like, and all their wit doth fail. verse 28 Then do they to Jehovah cry when they are in distress; And he them bringeth speedily out of their anguishes.
verse 29 He makes the storm a calm, that so, the waves thereof are still. ⟨p. 272⟩verse 30 Their rest glads them, he brings them to the haven that they did will. verse 31 O that men praise Jehovah would for his great goodness then; And for his wonders manifold unto the sons of men.
