| 1I cry out to God! I cry out to God and he hears me. | 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. |
| 2When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; my hands were raised at night and they did not grow weary. I refused to be comforted. | 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. |
| 3I remember God, and I groan; I meditate, while my spirit grows faint. Interlude | 3When I remember God, then I am disturbed; When I sigh, then my spirit grows faint. Selah. |
| 4You kept my eyes open; I was troubled and couldn't speak. | 4You have held my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak. |
| 5I thought of ancient times, considering years long past. | 5I have considered the days of old, The years of long ago. |
| 6During the night I remembered my song. I meditate in my heart, and my spirit ponders. | 6I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, And my spirit ponders: |
| 7Will the Lord reject me forever and not show favor again? | 7Will the Lord reject forever? And will He never be favorable again? |
| 8Has his gracious love ceased forever? Will his promise be unfulfilled in future generations? | 8Has His lovingkindness ceased forever? Has His promise come to an end forever? |
| 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger withheld his compassion? Interlude | 9Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? Selah. |
| 10So I say: "It causes me pain that the right hand of the Most High has changed." | 10Then I said, "It is my grief, That the right hand of the Most High has changed." |
| 11I will remember the LORD'S deeds; indeed, I will remember your awesome deeds from long ago. | 11I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. |
| 12As I meditate on all your works, I will consider your awesome deeds. | 12I will meditate on all Your work And muse on Your deeds. |
| 13God, your way is holy. What god is like our great God? | 13Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like our God? |
| 14God, you are the one performing awesome deeds. You reveal your might among the nations. | 14You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples. |
| 15You delivered your people— the descendants of Jacob and Joseph— with your power. Interlude | 15You have by Your power redeemed Your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. |
| 16The waters saw you, God; the waters saw you and writhed. Indeed, the depths of the sea quaked. | 16The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were in anguish; The deeps also trembled. |
| 17The clouds poured rain; the skies rumbled. Indeed, your lightning bolts flashed. | 17The clouds poured out water; The skies gave forth a sound; Your arrows flashed here and there. |
| 18Your thunderous sound was in a whirlwind; your lightning lights up the world; the earth becomes agitated and quakes. | 18The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook. |
| 19Your way was through the sea, and your path through mighty waters, but your footprints cannot be traced. | 19Your way was in the sea And Your paths in the mighty waters, And Your footprints may not be known. |
| 20You have led your people like a flock by the hands of Moses and Aaron. | 20You led Your people like a flock By the hand of Moses and Aaron. |
