Psalms 77:2-20 ▼

2 In the day of my distress I sought the Lord; my hand in the night has been stretched out, and it does not slacken; my soul refuses to be comforted.

3 I remember God, and I groan; I meditate, and my spirit becomes faint. Selah

4 You hold the lids of my eyes; I am troubled, and I cannot speak.

5 I consider the days of old, the years of ages past.

6 I remember, my song in the night; with my heart I converse, and my spirit searches.

7 “Will the Lord forever reject us, and not anymore will He add to show favor?

8 Has His loving devotion ceased forever? Has His speech come to an end to generation and generation?

9 Or has God forgotten to show favor? Has He shut up in anger His compassion?” Selah

10 and I said, “I am grieved. Has it changed—the right hand of the Most High?”

11 I will remember the deeds of YAH; indeed, I will remember Your wonder of old.

12 And I have meditated on all Your work, and I put forth Your deeds.

13 O God, in holiness is Your way; what god is great like God?

14 You are the God doing wonders; You have made known among the peoples Your strength.

15 You have redeemed with Your arm a people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

16 the waters saw You, O God, the waters saw You and swirled; even the depths trembled.

17 The clouds poured forth waters, the skies gave forth a voice, and Your arrows flashed back and forth.

18 The voice of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; the lightnings lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook.

19 Your way was in the sea, and Your paths in the great waters, and Your footprints were not known.

20 You led Your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
