Psalms 77 · John Wesley
Cut off - As men do their grapes in time of vintage; so the Hebrew verb implies. The spirit - Their breath and life, as he did in the Assyrian army.
Night - Which to others was a time of rest and quietness.
Troubled - Yea, the thoughts of God were now a matter of trouble, because he was angry with me. Overwhelmed - So far was I from finding relief.
The days - The mighty works of God in former times.
My song - The mercies of God vouchsafed to me, and to his people, which have obliged me to sing his praises, not only in the day, but also by night.
I said - These suspicions of God's faithfulness proceed from the weakness of my faith. The years - The years wherein God hath done great and glorious works, which are often ascribed to God's right - hand.
In holiness - God is holy and just, and true in all his works.
Afraid - And stood still, as men astonished, do.
Poured - When the Israelites passed over the sea. Arrows - Hail - stones or lightnings.
Not known - Because the water returned and covered them.
