Psalms77

¹To the choirmaster : according to Jeduthun . A Psalm of Asaph . I cry aloud to God , aloud to God , and he will hear me.

²In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord ; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying ; my soul refuses to be comforted .

³When I remember God , I moan ; when I meditate , my spirit faints . Selah

⁴You hold my eyelids open ; I am so troubled that I cannot speak .

⁵I consider the days of old , the years long ago .

⁶I said, Let me remember my song in the night ; let me meditate in my heart . Then my spirit made a diligent search :

⁷Will the Lord spurn forever , and never again be favorable ?

⁸Has his steadfast love forever ceased ? Are his promises at an end for all time ?

⁹Has God forgotten to be gracious ? Has he in anger shut up his compassion ? Selah

¹⁰Then I said , I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High .

¹¹I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes , I will remember your wonders of old .

¹²I will ponder all your work , and meditate on your mighty deeds .

¹³Your way , O God , is holy . What god is great like our God ?

¹⁴You are the God who works wonders ; you have made known your might among the peoples .

¹⁵You with your arm redeemed your people , the children of Jacob and Joseph . Selah

¹⁶When the waters saw you, O God , when the waters saw you, they were afraid ; indeed , the deep trembled .

¹⁷The clouds poured out water ; the skies gave forth thunder ; your arrows flashed on every side .

¹⁸The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind ; your lightnings lighted up the world ; the earth trembled and shook .

¹⁹Your way was through the sea , your path through the great waters ; yet your footprints were unseen .

²⁰You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron .
