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