22 Let them sacrifice thank offerings(A)
    and tell of his works(B) with songs of joy.(C)

23 Some went out on the sea(D) in ships;(E)
    they were merchants on the mighty waters.
24 They saw the works of the Lord,(F)
    his wonderful deeds in the deep.
25 For he spoke(G) and stirred up a tempest(H)
    that lifted high the waves.(I)
26 They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths;
    in their peril(J) their courage melted(K) away.
27 They reeled(L) and staggered like drunkards;
    they were at their wits’ end.

22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.

23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;

24 These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.

26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit's end.

Which lifts up the waves of the sea.

And [b]are at their wits’ end.
