Psalms 77
1“To the chief musician on Jeduthun, by Assaph a psalm.” (77:2) [I lift up] my voice unto God, and I cry; [I lilt up] my voice unto God: do then give ear unto me.
2(77:3) On the day of my distress I sought the Lord; in the night my hand was stretched out, and did not cease: my soul refused to be comforted.
3(77:4) I think of God, and moan: I reflect, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah.
4(77:5) Thou holdest my eyes awake: I am troubled and I cannot speak.
5(77:6) I think over the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6(77:7) I call to remembrance my song in the night; with my own heart I reflect: and my spirit maketh diligent search.
7(77:8) Will the Lord cast me off for ever? and will he never more give his favor again?
8(77:9) Is his kindness spent for ever? is his promise come to an end for all generations?
9(77:10) Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he shut up in anger his mercies? Selah.
10(77:11) And I said, This shall be my entreaty, [for] the years of the right hand of the Most High.
11(77:12) I will remember the deeds of the Lord; for I will remember out of ancient times thy wonders.
12(77:13) I will meditate also of all thy work, and on thy deeds will I reflect.
13(77:14) O God, in holiness is thy way: where is there a god so great as God?
14(77:15) Thou art the God that dost wonders: thou hast made known among the people thy strength.
15(77:16) Thou hast redeemed with [a mighty] arm thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16(77:17) The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they shook: also the depths trembled.
17(77:18) The clouds poured out water; the skies sent forth thunder: also thy arrows sped along.
18(77:19) The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; lightnings gave light to the world; the earth trembled and quaked,
19(77:20) Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known.
20(77:21) Thou didst lead like a flock thy people by means of Moses and Aaron.
