Psalms - Chapter 77 | New International Version

  • 1. {For the director of music. For Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A psalm.} I cried out to God for help; I cried out to God to hear me.
  • 2. When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands and my soul refused to be comforted.
  • 3. I remembered you, O God, and I groaned; I mused, and my spirit grew faint. Selah
  • 4. You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak.
  • 5. I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
  • 6. I remembered my songs in the night. My heart mused and my spirit inquired:
  • 7. Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
  • 8. Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
  • 9. Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?" Selah
  • 10. Then I thought, "To this I will appeal: the years of the right hand of the Most High."
  • 11. I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
  • 12. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds.
  • 13. Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God?
  • 14. You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
  • 15. With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
  • 16. The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
  • 17. The clouds poured down water, the skies resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
  • 18. Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
  • 19. Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
  • 20. You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
