1 I cried out to God for help; I cried out to God to hear me.
1
<<To the chief musician: To Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.>> I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and He gave ear unto me.
2 When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands, and I would not be comforted.
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 you, God, and I groaned; I meditated, and my spirit grew faint.
3
I remembered God, and was troubled; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah
4 You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak.
4
Thou holdest mine eyes awake; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
5
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 I remembered my songs in the night. My heart meditated and my spirit asked:
6
I call to remembrance my song in the night; I commune with mine own heart, and my spirit makes diligent search.
7 “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
7
"Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will He be favorable no more?
8 Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
8
Is His mercy clean gone for ever? Doth His promise fail for evermore?
9 Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?”
9
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath He in anger shut up His tender mercies?" Selah
10 Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
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 deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
11
I will remember the works of the LORD; surely I will remember Thy wonders of old.
12 I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”
12
I will meditate also on all of Thy work, and talk of Thy doings.
13 Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God?
13
Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary. Who is so great a god as our God?
14 You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
14
Thou art the God that doest wonders; Thou hast declared Thy strength among the people.
15 With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
15
Thou hast with Thine arm redeemed Thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
16 The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
16
The waters saw Thee, O God, the waters saw Thee; they were afraid; the depths also were troubled.
17 The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
17
The clouds poured out water, the skies sent out a sound; Thine arrows also went abroad.
18 Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
18
The voice of Thy thunder was in the heavens, the lightnings lightened the world; the earth trembled and shook.
19 Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
19
Thy way is in the sea, and Thy path in the great waters, and Thy footsteps are not known.
20 You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
20
Thou didst lead Thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
