15. Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men.
16. For he has crushed the gates of brass and broken the iron bars.
17. He has taken them up, from the way of their iniquity. For they were brought low, because of their injustices.
18. Their soul abhorred all food, and they drew near even to the gates of death.
19. And they cried out to the Lord in their tribulation, and he delivered them in their necessity.
20. He sent his word, and he healed them, and he rescued them from their utter destruction.
21. Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men.
22. And let them offer sacrifice with the sacrifice of praise, and let them announce his works in exultation.
23. Those who descend to the sea in ships, making their livelihood in the great waters:
24. these have seen the works of the Lord and his wonders in the deep.
25. He spoke: and a windstorm stood up, and its waves were exalted.
26. They ascend even to the heavens, and they descend even to the abyss. Their soul will waste away in distress.
27. They were troubled, and they moved like a drunkard, and all their wisdom was consumed.
28. And they cried out to the Lord in their tribulation, and he led them out of their distress.
29. And he replaced the storm with a breeze, and its waves were stilled.
30. And they were joyful that it was stilled, and he led them into the haven that they desired.
