Psalm 77

To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.

1 My voice is unto God, and I will cry; my voice is unto God, and he will give ear unto me. 2 In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; my soul refused to be comforted. 3 I remembered God, and I moaned; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. 4 Thou holdest open mine eyelids; I am full of disquiet and cannot speak. 5 I consider the days of old, the years of ancient times. 6 I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search. 7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? 8 Hath his loving-kindness ceased for ever? hath his word come to an end from generation to generation? 9 Hath •God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10 Then said I, This is my weakness: —the years of the right hand of the Most High

11  Will I remember, —the works of Jah; for I will remember thy wonders of old, 12  And I will meditate upon all thy work, and muse upon thy doings. 13  O God, thy way is in the sanctuary: who is so great a •god as God? 14  Thou art the •God that doest wonders; thou hast declared thy strength among the peoples. 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 trembled, yea, the depths were troubled: 17  The thick clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound, yea, thine arrows went abroad: 18  The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind, lightnings lit up the world; the earth was troubled and it quaked. 19  Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are 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.
