1 | To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph. I cried to God with my voice, even to God with my voice; and he gave ear to me. |
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. |
3 | I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. |
4 | Thou holdest my eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. |
5 | I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. |
6 | I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with my own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. |
7 | Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favorable no more? |
8 | Is his mercy wholly gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? |
9 | Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. |
10 | And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High. |
11 | I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. |
12 | I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. |
13 | Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God! |
14 | Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. |
15 | Thou hast with thy arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. |
16 | The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were disturbed. |
17 | The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thy arrows also went abroad. |
18 | The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. |
19 | Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known. |
20 | Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. |
