Psalms 107:26

FearDiscouragement and depression

24 They saw the works of the LORD, and His wonders in the deep.

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

They mounted up to the heavens, then sunk to the depths; their courage melted in their anguish.

27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards, and all their skill was useless.

28 Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brought them out of their distress.
