Psalms 77

1. ¹To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of Asaph. My voice `is' to God, and I cry, my voice `is' to God, And He hath given ear unto me.
2. ²In a day of my distress the Lord I sought, My hand by night hath been spread out, And it doth not cease, My soul hath refused to be comforted.
3. ³I remember God, and make a noise, I meditate, and feeble is my spirit. Selah.
4. ⁴Thou hast taken hold of the watches of mine eyes, I have been moved, and I speak not.
5. ⁵I have reckoned the days of old, The years of the ages.
6. ⁶I remember my music in the night, With my heart I meditate, and my spirit doth search diligently:
7. ⁷To the ages doth the Lord cast off? Doth He add to be pleased no more?
8. ⁸Hath His kindness ceased for ever? The saying failed to all generations?
9. ⁹Hath God forgotten `His' favours? Hath He shut up in anger His mercies? Selah.
10. ¹⁰And I say: `My weakness is, The changes of the right hand of the Most High.'
11. ¹¹I mention the doings of Jah, For I remember of old Thy wonders,
12. ¹²And I have meditated on all Thy working, And I talk concerning Thy doings.
13. ¹³O God, in holiness `is' Thy way, Who `is' a great god like God?
14. ¹⁴Thou `art' the God doing wonders. Thou hast made known among the peoples Thy strength,
15. ¹⁵Thou hast redeemed with strength Thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16. ¹⁶The waters have seen Thee, O God, The waters have seen Thee, They are afraid -- also depths are troubled.
17. ¹⁷Poured out waters have thick clouds, The skies have given forth a noise, Also -- Thine arrows go up and down.
18. ¹⁸The voice of Thy thunder `is' in the spheres, Lightnings have lightened the world, The earth hath trembled, yea, it shaketh.
19. ¹⁹In the sea `is' Thy way, And Thy paths `are' in many waters, And Thy tracks have not been known.
20. ²⁰Thou hast led as a flock Thy people, By the hand of Moses and Aaron!
