Psalms 107:25-27
107:25 He gave the order for a windstorm,
and it stirred up the waves of the sea.
107:26 They reached up to the sky,
then dropped into the depths.
The sailors’ strength left them because the danger was so great.
107:27 They swayed and staggered like a drunk,
and all their skill proved ineffective.

1:4 But
the
Lord hurled
a powerful
wind on the sea. Such a violent
tempest arose on the sea that
the ship threatened to break up!
Jonah 1:11-14
1:11 Because the storm was growing worse and worse,
they said to him, “What should we do to you to make
the sea calm down
for us?”
1:12 He said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea to make the sea quiet down,
because I know it’s my fault you are in this severe storm.”
1:13 Instead, they tried to row
back to land,
but they were not able to do so
because the storm kept growing worse and worse.
1:14 So they cried out to the
Lord, “Oh, please,
Lord, don’t let us die on account of this man! Don’t hold us guilty of shedding innocent blood.
After all, you,
Lord, have done just as you pleased.”

8:25 So they came
and woke him up saying, “Lord, save us! We are about to die!”
Matthew 8:2
8:2 And a leper
approached, and bowed low before him, saying,
“Lord, if
you are willing, you can make me clean.”
