1For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I will cry to God with my voice, Even to God with my voice; and he will give ear to me. 2In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: My hand during the night [was] before him, and did not slack; My soul refused to be comforted. 3I remember God, and am disquieted: I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah. 4You hold my eyes watching: I am so troubled that I can't speak. 5I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times. 6I call to remembrance my song in the night: I sing with my own heart; And my spirit makes diligent search. 7Will the Lord cast off forever? And will he be favorable no more? 8Is his loving-kindness clean gone forever? Does his promise fail forevermore? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10And I said, This is my infirmity; [But I will remember] the years of the right hand of the Most High. 11I will make mention of the deeds of Yah; For I will remember your wonders of old. 12I will meditate also on all your work, And muse on your doings. 13Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary: Who is a great god like God? 14You are the God who does wonders: You have made known your strength among the peoples. 15You have with your arm redeemed your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. 16The waters saw you, O God; The waters saw you, they were afraid: The depths also trembled. 17The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound: Your arrows also went abroad. 18The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lightened the world: The earth trembled and shook. 19Your way was in the sea, And your paths in the great waters, And your footsteps were not known. 20You led your people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
