Psalm 77 (WEBP)

[1] My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.
[2] In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.
[3] I remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah.
[4] You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can’t speak.
[5] I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
[6] I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:
[7] “Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?
[8] Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?
[9] Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?” Selah.
[10] Then I thought, “I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
[11] I will remember Yah’s deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old.
[12] I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings.
[13] Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God?
[14] You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples.
[15] You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
[16] The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.
[17] The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.
[18] The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.
[19] Your way was through the sea, your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
[20] You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Young’s Literal Translation

Psalm 77 (YLT)

[1] My voice is to God, and I cry, my voice is to God, And He hath given ear unto me.
[2] In a day of my distress the Lord I sought, My hand by night hath been spread out, And it doth not cease, My soul hath refused to be comforted.
[3] I remember God, and make a noise, I meditate, and feeble is my spirit. Selah.
[4] Thou hast taken hold of the watches of mine eyes, I have been moved, and I speak not.
[5] I have reckoned the days of old, The years of the ages.
[6] I remember my music in the night, With my heart I meditate, and my spirit doth search diligently:
[7] To the ages doth the Lord cast off? Doth He add to be pleased no more?
[8] Hath His kindness ceased for ever? The saying failed to all generations?
[9] Hath God forgotten His favours? Hath He shut up in anger His mercies? Selah.
[10] And I say: ‘My weakness is, The changes of the right hand of the Most High.’
[11] I mention the doings of Jah, For I remember of old Thy wonders,
[12] And I have meditated on all Thy working, And I talk concerning Thy doings.
[13] O God, in holiness is Thy way, Who is a great god like God?
[14] Thou art the God doing wonders. Thou hast made known among the peoples Thy strength,
[15] Thou hast redeemed with strength Thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
[16] The waters have seen Thee, O God, The waters have seen Thee, They are afraid-also depths are troubled.
[17] Poured out waters have thick clouds, The skies have given forth a noise, Also-Thine arrows go up and down.
[18] The voice of Thy thunder is in the spheres, Lightnings have lightened the world, The earth hath trembled, yea, it shaketh.
[19] In the sea is Thy way, And Thy paths are in many waters, And Thy tracks have not been known.
[20] Thou hast led as a flock Thy people, By the hand of Moses and Aaron!
