Psalm 77:1–12

1  I acry aloud to God,

aloud to God, and he will hear me.

2  bIn the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;

in cthe night my dhand is stretched out without wearying;

my soul erefuses to be comforted.

3  When I remember God, I fmoan;

when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

4  You hold my eyelids open;

I am so gtroubled that I cannot speak.

5  I consider hthe days of old,

the years long ago.

6  I said,1 “Let me remember my isong in the night;

let me jmeditate in my heart.”

Then my spirit made a diligent search:

7  “Will the Lord kspurn forever,

and never again lbe favorable?

8  Has his steadfast love forever ceased?

Are his mpromises at an end for all time?

9  nHas God forgotten to be gracious?

oHas he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

10  Then I said, “I will appeal to this,

to the years of the pright hand of the Most High.”2

11  I will remember the deeds of the Lord;

yes, I will qremember your wonders of old.

12  I will ponder all your rwork,

and meditate on your smighty deeds.
