  6. Example: Psalms 107:23-32,43 KJV They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep. For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, Which lifteth up the waves thereof. They mount up to the heaven, They go down again to the depths: Their soul is melted because of trouble. They stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit’s end. From Maxwell, C. Mervyn. “Daniel 9.” God Cares. Nampa, ID: Pacific Press, 1981. Vol. 1, p. 212.

  7. Example: Psalms 107:23-32,43 KJV He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their haven desired. Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord. From Maxwell, C. Mervyn. “Daniel 9.” God Cares. Nampa, ID: Pacific Press, 1981.
