| Chapter 77 |
1 | {To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.} My voice is unto God, and I will cry; my voice is unto God, and he will give ear unto me.
|
2 | In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; my soul refused to be comforted.
|
3 | I remembered God, and I moaned; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
|
4 | Thou holdest open mine eyelids; I am full of disquiet and cannot speak.
|
5 | I consider the days of old, the years of ancient times.
|
6 | I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search.
|
7 | Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
|
8 | Hath his loving-kindness ceased for ever? hath [his] word come to an end from generation to generation?
|
9 | Hath łGod forgotten to be gracious? or hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.
|
10 | Then said I, This is my weakness: -- the years of the right hand of the Most High
|
11 | Will I remember, -- the works of Jah; for I will remember thy wonders of old,
|
12 | And I will meditate upon all thy work, and muse upon thy doings.
|
13 | O God, thy way is in the sanctuary: who is so great a łgod as God?
|
14 | Thou art the łGod that doest wonders; thou hast declared thy strength among the peoples.
|
15 | Thou hast with [thine] arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
|
16 | The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they trembled, yea, the depths were troubled:
|
17 | The thick clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound, yea, thine arrows went abroad:
|
18 | The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind, lightnings lit up the world; the earth was troubled and it quaked.
|
19 | Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not known.
|
20 | Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
