Bursts as a wave that from the clouds impends,

And swelld with tempests on the ship descends;

White are the decks with foam; the winds aloud

Howl oer the masts, and sing through every shroud:

Pale, trembling, tird, the sailors freeze with fears;

And instant death on every wave appears.  Homer, The Iliad XV:752

 

 

The winds grow high;

Impending tempests charge the sky;

The lightning flies, the thunder roars;

And big waves lash the frightened shores.  Matthew Prior, The Lady’s Looking-Glass

For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.  Job 9:17

 

 

Now the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,

 

Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.   

 

But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.

 

But the Lord sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.  Jonah 1:1-4

 

 

And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us.  So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.

 

Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil is upon us; What is thine occupation?  And whence comest thou?  What is thy country?  And of what people art thou?

 

And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the Lord, the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land.

 

Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him.  Why hast thou done this?  For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them.

 

Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us?  For the sea wrought, and was tempestuous.  Jonah 1:7-11

 

 

And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.

 

And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.

 

And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

 

And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?  Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

 

But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!  Matthew 8:23-27

 

 

And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship.  And there were also with him other little ships.

 

And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

 

And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

 

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still.  And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.    

 

And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful?  How is it that ye have no faith?

 

And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?  Mark 4:36-41
