📖 Psalms 77
-
1
My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
-
2
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn't get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
-
3
I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah.
-
4
You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can't speak.
-
5
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
-
6
I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
-
7
"Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
-
8
Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?
-
9
Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?" Selah.
-
10
Then I thought, "I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High."
-
11
I will remember Yah's deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.
-
12
I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.
-
13
Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?
-
14
You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.
-
15
You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
-
16
The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.
-
17
The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.
-
18
The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.
-
19
Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
-
20
You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron. A contemplation by Asaph.
