1 <V 76:1>Unto the end. For Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. <V 76:2>I cried out to the Lord with my voice, to God with my voice, and he attended to me. I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me. 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 <V 76:3>In the days of my tribulation, I sought God, with my hands opposite him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be consoled. In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted. When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands, and I would not be comforted.
3 <V 76:4>I was mindful of God, and I was delighted, and I was distressed, and my spirit fell away. When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah I remembered you, God, and I groaned; I meditated, and my spirit grew faint.
4 <V 76:5>My eyes anticipated the vigils. I was disturbed, and I did not speak. You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak. You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak.
5 <V 76:6>I considered the days of antiquity, and I held the years of eternity in my mind. I consider the days of old, the years long ago. I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
6 <V 76:7>And I meditated in the night with my heart, and I was distressed, and I examined my spirit. I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search: I remembered my songs in the night. My heart meditated and my spirit asked:
7 <V 76:8>So then, will God reject for eternity? Will he not continue to allow himself to show favor? “Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable? “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
8 <V 76:9>Or, will he cut off his mercy in the end, from generation to generation? Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his promises at an end for all time? Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
9 <V 76:10>And would God ever forget to be merciful? Or, would he, in his wrath, restrict his mercies? Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?”
10 <V 76:11>And I said, “Now I have begun. This change is from the right hand of the Most High.” Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High.” Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
11 <V 76:12>I was mindful of the works of the Lord. For I will be mindful from the beginning of your wonders, I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your wonders of old. I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
12 <V 76:13>and I will meditate on all your works. And I will take part in your intentions. I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds. I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”
13 <V 76:14>Your way, O God, is in what is holy. Which God is great like our God? Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God? Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God?
14 <V 76:15>You are the God who performs miracles. You have made your virtue known among the peoples. You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples. You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
15 <V 76:16>With your arm, you have redeemed your people, the sons of Jacob and of Joseph. You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
16 <V 76:17>The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you, and they were afraid, and the depths were stirred up. When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled. The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
17 <V 76:18>Great was the sound of the waters. The clouds uttered a voice. For your arrows also pass by. The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side. The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
18 <V 76:19>The voice of your thunder is like a wheel. Your flashes have illuminated the whole world. The earth has quaked and trembled. The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook. Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
19 <V 76:20>Your way is through the sea, and your paths are through many waters. And your traces will not be known. Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen. Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
20 <V 76:21>You have conducted your people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron. You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
