| 7. | who stills the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations. | The God by whose strength the mountains are fixed; who is robed with power: | Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people. | ||
| 8. | They also who dwell in faraway places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning's dawn and the evening with songs of joy. | Who makes the loud voice of the sea quiet, and puts an end to the sound of its waves. | They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice. | ||
| 9. | You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it. | Those in the farthest parts of the earth have fear when they see your signs: the outgoings of the morning and evening are glad because of you. | Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it. | ||

You bless it with a crop. | You have given your blessing to the earth, watering it and making it fertile; the river of God is full of water: and having made it ready, you give men grain. | Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof. | ||

They also sing. | Falling on the grass of the waste land: and the little hills are glad on every side. | The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing. | ||
