Who stills the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

You rule the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, you still them.

The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.

What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?

And said, Thus far shall you come, but no farther: and here shall your proud waves be stopped?

Fear you not me? says the LORD: will you not tremble at my presence, who has placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though its waves toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
