For the end, for Idithun, a Psalm of Asaph.

77:1 I cried to the Lord with my voice, yea, my voice [was addressed] to God; and he gave heed to me.

77:2 In the day of mine affliction I earnestly sought the Lord; [even] with my hands by night before him, and I was not deceived; my soul refused to be comforted.

77:3 I remembered God, and rejoiced; I poured out my complaint, and my soul fainted. Pause.

77:4 All mine enemies set a watch [against me]: I was troubled, and spoke not.

77:5 I considered the days of old, and remembered ancient ears.

77:6 And I meditated; I communed with my heart by night, and diligently searched my spirit, [saying],

77:7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be well pleased no more?

77:8 Will he cut off his mercy for ever, even for ever and ever?

77:9 Will God forget to pity? or will he shut up his compassions in his wrath? Pause.

77:10 And I said, Now I have begun; this is the change of the right hand of the Most High.

77:11 I remembered the works of the Lord; for I will remember thy wonders from the beginning.

77:12 And I will meditate on all thy works, and will consider thy doings.

77:13 O God, thy way is in the sanctuary; who is a great God as our God?

77:14 Thou art the God that doest wonders; thou hast made known thy power among the nations.

77:15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Pause.

77:16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee, and feared; and the depths were troubled.

77:17 [There was] an abundant sound of waters: the clouds uttered a voice; for thine arrows went abroad.

77:18 The voice of thy thunder was abroad, and around thy lightnings appeared to the world; the earth trembled a quaked.

77:19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters, and thy footsteps cannot be known.

77:20 Thou didst guide thy people as sheep by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph.

77:1 I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.

77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

77:3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

77:4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

77:5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

77:6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

77:7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

77:8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

77:9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.

77:10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.

77:11 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.

77:12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

77:13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?

77:14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.

77:15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

77:16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.

77:17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.

77:18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.

77:19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.

77:20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
