Chapter 77

   For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a song. I will cry unto God with my voice, Even unto God with my voice; and he will give ear unto me.  

-

  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.  

-

  I remember God, and am disquieted: I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah  

-

  Thou holdest mine eyes watching: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.  

-

  I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.  

-

  I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search.  

-

  Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favorable no more?  

-

  Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?  

-

  Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah  

-

  And I said, This is my infirmity; [But I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High.  

-

  I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah; For I will remember thy wonders of old.  

-

  I will meditate also upon all thy work, And muse on thy doings.  

-

  Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: Who is a great god like unto God?  

-

  Thou art the God that doest wonders: Thou hast made known thy strength among the peoples.  

-

  Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah  

-

  The waters saw thee, O God; The waters saw thee, they were afraid: The depths also trembled.  

-

  The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound: Thine arrows also went abroad.  

-

  The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lightened the world: The earth trembled and shook.  

-

  Thy way was in the sea, And thy paths in the great waters, And thy footsteps were not known.  

-

  Thou leddest thy people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
