4. The Lord on high ismightier than the noise of many waters. The
utmost of their power is to him but a sound and he can readily master it;
therefore he calls it a noise by way of contempt. When people combine to
overthrow the kingdom of Jesus, the Lord thinks no more of it than of so much
noise upon the sea-beach. Yea, than the mighty waves of the sea. When
the storm raises Atlantic billows, and drives them on with terrific force, the
Lord is still able to restrain them, and so also when impious men are haughty
and full of rage the Lord is able to subdue them and overrule their malice.
Kings or mobs, emperors or savages, all are in the Lord’s hands, and he can
forbid their touching a hair of the heads of his saints.
