Psalm 77
HCSB Parallel ESV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Holman Christian Standard BibleEnglish Standard Version
1For the choir director: according to Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A psalm. I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and He will hear me. 1I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me.
2I sought the Lord in my day of trouble. My hands were continually lifted up all night long; I refused to be comforted. 2In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted.
3I think of God; I groan; I meditate; my spirit becomes weak. Selah 3When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah
4You have kept me from closing my eyes; I am troubled and cannot speak. 4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5I consider days of old, years long past. 5I consider the days of old, the years long ago.
6At night I remember my music; I meditate in my heart, and my spirit ponders." 6I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search:
7Will the Lord reject forever and never again show favor? 7“Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable?
8Has His faithful love ceased forever? Is His promise at an end for all generations? 8Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his promises at an end for all time?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger withheld His compassion?" Selah 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah
10So I say, "I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed." 10Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
11I will remember the LORD's works; yes, I will remember Your ancient wonders. 11I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
12I will reflect on all You have done and meditate on Your actions. 12I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds.
13God, Your way is holy. What god is great like God? 13Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?
14You are the God who works wonders; You revealed Your strength among the peoples. 14You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples.
15With power You redeemed Your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Selah 15You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
16The waters saw You, God. The waters saw You; they trembled. Even the depths shook. 16When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled.
17The clouds poured down water. The storm clouds thundered; Your arrows flashed back and forth. 17The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side.
18The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; lightning lit up the world. The earth shook and quaked. 18The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
19Your way went through the sea and Your path through the great waters, but Your footprints were unseen. 19Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen.
20You led Your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. 20You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
