| Chapter 77 |
1 | For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a song. I will cry unto God with my voice, Even unto God with my voice; 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 remember God, and am disquieted: I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah
|
4 | Thou holdest mine eyes watching: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
|
5 | I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.
|
6 | I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search.
|
7 | Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favorable no more?
|
8 | Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?
|
9 | Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah
|
10 | And I said, This is my infirmity; [But I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High.
|
11 | I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah; For I will remember thy wonders of old.
|
12 | I will meditate also upon all thy work, And muse on thy doings.
|
13 | Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: Who is a great god like unto God?
|
14 | Thou art the God that doest wonders: Thou hast made known 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 were afraid: The depths also trembled.
|
17 | The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound: Thine arrows also went abroad.
|
18 | The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lightened the world: The earth trembled and shook.
|
19 | Thy way was in the sea, And thy paths in the great waters, And thy footsteps were not known.
|
20 | Thou leddest thy people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
