He lets me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still and quiet waters.

The Lord sat as King at the flood;
Yes, the Lord sits as King forever.

Be still before the Lord; wait patiently for Him and entrust yourself to Him;
Do not fret (whine, agonize) because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.

“Be still and know (recognize, understand) that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth.”

Who stills the roaring of the seas,
The roaring of their waves,
And the tumult of the peoples,

Surely God will shatter the head of His enemies,
The hairy scalp of one who goes on in his guilty ways.

You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared and was quiet

That the generation to come might know them, that the children still to be born
May arise and recount them to their children,

Yet they still continued to sin against Him
By rebelling against the Most High in the desert.

In spite of all this they still sinned,
For they did not believe in His wonderful and extraordinary works.

Do not keep silent, O God;
Do not hold Your peace or be still, O God.

You rule the swelling of the sea;
When its waves rise, You still them.

[Growing in grace] they will still thrive and bear fruit and prosper in old age;
They will flourish and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment];

He hushed the storm to a gentle whisper,
So that the waves of the sea were still.

Even before there is a word on my tongue [still unspoken],
Behold, O Lord, You know it all.

If I could count them, they would outnumber the sand.
When I awake, I am still with You.
