Psalm 106 28-32
And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their
distresses. And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still. And
they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which
they wished for. Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his
wonderful works to the children of men. And let them exalt him in the church of
the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients.
