| 1 | {To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.} My voice is unto God, and I will cry; my voice is unto God, and he will give ear unto 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 | 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. | 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 | I remembered God, and I moaned; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. | 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 | Thou holdest open mine eyelids; I am full of disquiet and cannot 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 | I consider the days of old, the years of ancient times. | I consider the days of old, the years long ago. | I thought about the former days, the years of long ago; | |
| 6 | I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search. | 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 | Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? | “Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable? | “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again? | |
| 8 | Hath his loving-kindness ceased for ever? hath [his] word come to an 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 | Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. | 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 | Then said I, This is my weakness: -- the years of 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 | Will I remember, -- the works of Jah; for I will remember thy wonders of old, | 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 | And I will meditate upon all thy work, and muse upon thy doings. | 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 | O God, thy way is in the sanctuary: who is so great a god as 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 | Thou art the God that doest wonders; thou hast declared thy strength 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 | Thou hast with [thine] arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. | 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 | The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they trembled, yea, the depths were troubled: | 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 | The thick clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound, yea, thine arrows went abroad: | 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 | The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind, lightnings lit up the world; the earth was troubled and it quaked. | 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 | Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not 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 | Thou leddest thy 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. | You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. | |
