Psalm 77
Comfort from Recalling
God's Mighty Deeds |
To the chief Musician, to
Jedu'thun, A Psalm of
Asaph. |
|
1 |
I cried unto God with my voice,
|
even unto God with my voice; |
and he gave ear unto
me. |
|
|
2 |
In the day of my trouble I sought the
Lord:
|
my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: |
my soul refused to be
comforted. |
|
|
3 |
I remembered God, and was troubled:
|
I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed.
Selah. |
|
|
4 |
Thou holdest mine eyes waking:
|
I am so troubled that I cannot
speak. |
|
|
5 |
I have considered the days of old,
|
the years of ancient
times. |
|
|
6 |
I call to remembrance my song in the
night:
|
I commune with mine own heart: |
and my spirit made diligent search.
|
|
|
7 |
Will the Lord cast off for ever?
|
And will he be favorable no
more? |
|
|
8 |
Is his mercy clean gone for ever?
|
Doth his promise fail for
evermore? |
|
|
9 |
Hath God forgotten to be gracious?
|
Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies?
Selah. |
|
|
10 |
And I said, This is my
infirmity:
|
but I will remember the years of the right
hand of the Most
High. |
|
|
11 |
I will remember the works of the LORD:
|
surely I will remember thy wonders of
old. |
|
|
12 |
I will meditate also of all thy work,
|
13 |
Thy way, O God, is in the
sanctuary:
|
who is so great a God as our God? |
|
|
14 |
Thou art the God that doest
wonders:
|
thou hast declared thy strength among the
people. |
|
|
15 |
Thou hast with thine arm redeemed
thy people,
|
the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
Selah. |
|
|
16 |
The waters saw thee, O God,
|
the waters saw thee; |
they were afraid: |
the depths also were
troubled. |
|
|
17 |
The clouds poured out water:
|
the skies sent out a sound: |
thine arrows also went
abroad. |
|
|
18 |
The voice of thy thunder was in
the heaven:
|
the lightnings lightened the world: |
the earth trembled and
shook. |
|
|
19 |
Thy way is in the sea,
|
and thy path in the great waters, |
and thy footsteps are not
known. |
|
|
20 |
Thou leddest thy people like a flock
|
by the hand of Moses and
Aaron. |
