Waves

For the waves of death engulfed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.

He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea.

…and I declared: ‘You may come this far, but no farther; here your proud waves must stop’?

Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls; all Your breakers and waves have rolled over me.

You stilled the roaring of the seas, the pounding of their waves, and the tumult of the nations.

Your wrath weighs heavily upon me; all Your waves have submerged me. Selah

You rule the raging sea; when its waves mount up, You still them.

The floodwaters have risen, O LORD; the rivers have raised their voice; the seas lift up their pounding waves.

For He spoke and raised a tempest that lifted the waves of the sea.

He calmed the storm to a whisper, and the waves of the sea were hushed.

If only you had paid attention to My commandments, your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like waves of the sea.

For I am the LORD your God who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of Hosts is His name.

But the wicked are like the storm-tossed sea, for it cannot be still, and its waves churn up mire and muck.

Do you not fear Me?” declares the LORD. “Do you not tremble before Me, the One who set the sand as the boundary for the sea, an enduring barrier it cannot cross? The waves surge, but they cannot prevail. They roar but cannot cross it.

Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for light by day, who sets in order the moon and stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of Hosts is His name:

The sea has come up over Babylon; she is covered in turbulent waves.

For the LORD will destroy Babylon; He will silence her mighty voice. The waves will roar like great waters; the tumult of their voices will resound.

…therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, O Tyre, I am against you, and I will raise up many nations against you, as the sea brings up its waves.

For You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the current swirled about me; all Your breakers and waves swept over me.

They will pass through the sea of distress and strike the waves of the sea; all the depths of the Nile will dry up. The pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.

Suddenly a violent storm came up on the sea, so that the boat was engulfed by the waves. But Jesus was sleeping.

…but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay among the nations, bewildered by the roaring of the sea and the surging of the waves.

But the ship struck a sandbar and ran aground. The bow stuck fast and would not move, and the stern was being broken up by the pounding of the waves.

Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.

They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.
