Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.

Arise, LORD! Why sleepest thou? Awake, and be not absent from us forever.

Wake up, wake up, and be strong: O thou arm of the LORD: wake up, like as in times past, ever, and since the world began.

For we have not a high priest, which cannot have compassion on our infirmities: but was in all points tempted, as we are: but yet without sin.

The floods are risen, O LORD. The floods have lift up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

They that go down to the sea in ships, and occupy their business in great waters,

If the LORD himself had not been on our side, when men rose up against us,

fire and hail, snow and vapors, wind and storm, fulfilling his word;

Behold thou poor, vexed, and despised: I will make thy walls of precious stones, and thy foundation of Sapphires;

But anon after there arose, against their purpose, a flaw of wind out of the northeast.

He maketh the storm to cease, so that the waves are still.
