Psalms 107:27-30 God's Faithfulness to His People

27 They reeled and staggered like drunken men;
they were at their wits’ end.

28 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
and he brought them out of their distress.

29 He stilled the storm to a whisper;
the waves of the sea were hushed.

30 They were glad when it grew calm,
and he guided them to their desired haven.
