Psalms - Chapter 77

¹ [For the choirmaster . . . Jeduthun Of Asaph Psalm] I cry to God in distress, I cry to God and he hears me.

² In the day of my distress I sought the Lord; all night I tirelessly stretched out my hands, my heart refused to be consoled.

³ I sigh as I think of God, my spirit faints away as I ponder on him.

⁴ You kept me from closing my eyes, I was too distraught to speak;

⁵ I thought of former times, years long past

⁶ I recalled; through the night I ponder in my heart, as I reflect, my spirit asks this question:

⁷ Is the Lord's rejection final? Will he never show favour again?

⁸ Is his faithful love gone for ever? Has his Word come to an end for all time?

⁹ Does God forget to show mercy? In anger does he shut off his tenderness?

¹⁰ And I said, 'This is what wounds me, the right hand of the Most High has lost its strength.'

¹¹ Remembering Yahweh's great deeds, remembering your wonders in the past,

¹² I reflect on all that you did, I ponder all your great deeds.

¹³ God, your ways are holy! What god is as great as our God?

¹⁴ You are the God who does marvellous deeds, brought nations to acknowledge your power,

¹⁵ with your own arm redeeming your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph.

¹⁶ When the waters saw you, God, when the waters saw you they writhed in anguish, the very depths shook with fear.

¹⁷ The clouds pelted down water, the sky thundered, your arrows shot back and forth.

¹⁸ The rolling of your thunder was heard, your lightning-flashes lit up the world, the earth shuddered and shook.

¹⁹ Your way led over the sea, your path over the countless waters, and none could trace your footsteps.

²⁰ You guided your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
