29. He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
30. Then they are glad because they are at rest; so he brings them into the haven of his will.
31. Oh that men would praise the Lord for his mercy and for his wonderful works unto the sons of Adam!
32. Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33. He turned rivers into a wilderness and the watersprings into dry ground;
34. the fruitful land into salt flats, because of the wickedness of those that dwell therein.
35. He turns the wilderness into reservoirs of water and dry ground into watersprings.
36. And there he makes the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation
37. and sow the fields and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
38. He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly and suffers not their cattle to decrease.
39. Again, they are diminished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
