Psalm 65:7

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when its waves arise, thou stillest them.

He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:

But Jehovah sent out a great wind upon the sea, and there was a mighty tempest upon the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.

And he says to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then, having arisen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

The floods lifted up, O Jehovah, the floods lifted up their voice; the floods lifted up their roaring waves.

Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains:

And who shut up the sea with doors, when it burst forth, issuing out of the womb?

Why are the nations in tumultuous agitation, and why do the peoples meditate a vain thing?

For the fury of man shall praise thee; the remainder of fury wilt thou gird on thyself.

Ha! a tumult of many peoples! they make a noise as the noise of the seas; and the rushing of nations! they rush as the rushing of mighty waters.

When therefore he said to them, I am he, they went away backward and fell to the ground.

Thou rulest the pride of the sea: when its waves arise, thou stillest them.

He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:

The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
