29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
29 He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea
29 He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed.
29 He quieted the wind down to a whisper, put a muzzle on all the big waves.
29 He calms the storm, So that its waves are still.
29 He calmed the storm to a whisper and stilled the waves.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 107:29
Commentary on Psalm 107:23-32
(Read Psalm 107:23-32)
Let those who go to sea, consider and adore the Lord. Mariners have their business upon the tempestuous ocean, and there witness deliverances of which others cannot form an idea. How seasonable it is at such a time to pray! This may remind us of the terrors and distress of conscience many experience, and of those deep scenes of trouble which many pass through, in their Christian course. Yet, in answer to their cries, the Lord turns their storm into a calm, and causes their trials to end in gladness.
