'Seemed' in the Bible

Then the LORD sent a great wind over the sea, and a severe storm broke out. It seemed as if the ship were about to break up.

So, crying to the Lord, they said, Give ear to our prayer, O Lord, give ear, and do not let destruction overtake us because of this man's life; do not put on us the sin of taking life without cause: for you, O Lord, have done what seemed good to you.

But this seemed very wrong to Jonah, and he was angry.
