OEBcth - Psalms - 77

77:1  Loudly will I lift my cry to God, loudly to God, so he hears to me.

77:2  In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night I lift my hands in prayer, refusing all comfort.

77:3  When I think of God, I moan; when I muse, my spirit is faint. (Selah)

77:4  When you hold my eyes awake, and I am restless and speechless,

77:5  I think of the days of old, call to mind distant years.

77:6  I commune with my heart in the night, I muse with inquiring spirit.

77:7  “Will the Lord cast us off forever, will he be gracious no more?

77:8  Has his love vanished forever? Is his faithfulness utterly gone?

77:9  Has God forgotten to be gracious, or in anger withheld his compassion?” (Selah)

77:10  Then I said, “This it is that grieves me, that the hand of the Most High has changed.’

77:11  I will think of the deeds of the Lord, and remember your wonders of old.

77:12  I will muse on all you have wrought, and meditate on your deeds.

77:13  Then your way, O God, was majestic: what God was great as our God?

77:14  You were a God who did marvels, you did show your power to the world

77:15  by your arm you rescued your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

77:16  The waters saw you, O God. The waters saw you and shivered; to their depths they trembled.

77:17  Clouds poured torrents of water, thunder rolled in the sky, your arrows sped to and fro.

77:18  Loud was the roll of your thunder, lightnings lit up the world. Earth quaked and trembled.

77:19  In your way, Lord, through the sea, in your path through the mighty waters, your footsteps were all unseen.

77:20  You did guide your folk like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
