in their peril their courage melted away.

stirring up the waves.

Their ships were tossed to the heavens

and plunged again to the depths;

the sailors cringed in terror.

Those who went down to the sea in ships,

doing business on the high seas;

and it whipped up its waves.

They rose to the heavens; they plunged to the depths.

Their soul melted in their calamity.

KJV 1900King James Version

They that go down to the sea in ships,

That do business in great waters;

These see the works of the Lord,

And his wonders in the deep.

For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind,

Which lifteth up the waves thereof.

They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths:

Their soul is melted because of trouble.
