⁴ The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.

⁷ Who makes the loud voice of the sea quiet, and puts an end to the sound of its waves.

⁶ For who is there in the heavens in comparison with the Lord? who is like the Lord among the sons of the gods?

⁹ You have rule over the sea in storm; when its waves are troubled, you make them calm.

¹¹ And said, So far you may come, and no farther; and here the pride of your waves will be stopped?

⁸ But you, O Lord, are on high for ever.

³ The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.

⁴ The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.

⁵ What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?

²² Have you no fear of me? says the Lord; will you not be shaking with fear before me, who have put the sand as a limit for the sea, by an eternal order, so that it may not go past it? and though it is ever in motion, it is not able to have its way; though the sound of its waves is loud, they are not able to go past it.

³⁷ And a great storm of wind came up, and the waves came into the boat, so that the boat was now becoming full.

³⁸ And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

³⁹ And he came out of his sleep, and gave strong orders to the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be at rest. And the wind went down, and there was a great calm.
