Psalms 77

CJB

NIV

1 For the leader. For Y'dutun. A psalm of Asaf: I cry aloud to God, aloud to God; and he hears me.
1 I cried out to God for help; I cried out to God to hear me.
2 On the day of my distress I am seeking Adonai; my hands are lifted up; my tears flow all night without ceasing; my heart refuses comfort.
2 When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands, and I would not be comforted.
3 When remembering God, I moan; when I ponder, my spirit fails. (Selah)
3 I remembered you, God, and I groaned; I meditated, and my spirit grew faint.
4 You hold my eyelids [and keep me from sleeping]; I am too troubled to speak.
4 You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak.
5 I think about the days of old, the years of long ago;
5 I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
6 in the night I remember my song, I commune with myself, my spirit inquires:
6 I remembered my songs in the night. My heart meditated and my spirit asked:
7 "Will Adonai reject forever? will he never show his favor again?
7 “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
8 Has his grace permanently disappeared? Is his word to all generations done away?
8 Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
9 Has God forgotten to be compassionate? Has he in anger withheld his mercy?" (Selah)
9 Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?”
10 Then I add, "That's my weakness [supposing] the Most High's right hand could change."
10 Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
11 So I will remind myself of Yah's doings; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
11 I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
12 I will meditate on your work and think about what you have done.
12 I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”
13 God, your way is in holiness. What god is as great as God?
13 Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God?
14 You are the God who does wonders, you revealed your strength to the peoples.
14 You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
15 With your arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Ya'akov and Yosef. (Selah)
15 With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
16 The water saw you, God; the water saw you and writhed in anguish, agitated to its depths.
16 The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
17 The clouds poured water, the skies thundered, and your arrows flashed here and there.
17 The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
18 The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind, the lightning flashes lit up the world, the earth trembled and shook.
18 Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
19 Your way went through the sea, your path through the turbulent waters; but your footsteps could not be traced.
19 Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
20 You led your people like a flock under the care of Moshe and Aharon.
20 You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
