1For the choir director; according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. My voice [rises] to God, and I will cry aloud; My voice [rises] to God, and He will hear me.
2In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; In the night my hand was stretched out without weariness; My soul refused to be comforted.
3[When] I remember God, then I am disturbed; [When] I sigh, then my spirit grows faint. Selah.
4You have held my eyelids [open]; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5I have considered the days of old, The years of long ago.
6I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, And my spirit ponders:
7Will the Lord reject forever? And will He never be favorable again?
8Has His lovingkindness ceased forever? Has [His] promise come to an end forever?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? Selah.
10Then I said, 'It is my grief, That the right hand of the Most High has changed.'
11I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
12I will meditate on all Your work And muse on Your deeds.
13Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like our God?
14You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples.
15You have by Your power redeemed Your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were in anguish; The deeps also trembled.
17The clouds poured out water; The skies gave forth a sound; Your arrows flashed here and there.
18The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook.
19Your way was in the sea And Your paths in the mighty waters, And Your footprints may not be known.
20You led Your people like a flock By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
