1 TO THE OVERSEER. FOR JEDUTHUN. A PSALM OF ASAPH. My voice [is] to God, and I cry, || My voice [is] to God, || And He has given ear 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 I sought the Lord in a day of my distress, || My hand has been spread out by night, || And it does not cease, || My soul has 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 remember God, and make a noise, || I meditate, and my spirit is feeble. 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 You have taken hold of the watches of my eyes, || I have been moved, and I do 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 I have reckoned the days of old, || The years of the ages. 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 music in the night, || I meditate with my heart, and my spirit searches diligently: 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 Does the Lord cast off for all ages? Does He add to be pleased no longer? “Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable? “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
8 Has His kindness ceased forever? The saying failed 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 Has God forgotten [His] favors? Has He shut up His mercies in anger? 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 And I say: “My weakness is, || The changes 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 I mention the doings of YAH, || For I remember Your 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 have meditated on all Your working, || And I talk concerning Your 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, Your way [is] in holiness, || Who [is] a great god like 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 You [are] the God doing wonders. You have made Your strength 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 You have redeemed Your people with strength, || 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 have seen You, O God, || The waters have seen You, || They are afraid—also depths are 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 Thick clouds have poured out waters, || The skies have given forth a noise, || Also—Your arrows go up and down. 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 Your thunder [is] in the spheres, || Lightnings have lightened the world, || The earth has trembled, indeed, it shakes. 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 Your way [is] in the sea, || And Your paths in many waters, || And Your tracks have not been 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 You have led Your people as 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.
