New King James Version

Christian Standard Bible

1To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I cried out to God with my voice— To God with my voice; And He gave ear to me.

1I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me.

2In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; My hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing; My soul refused to be comforted.

2I sought the Lord in my day of trouble. My hands were continually lifted up all night long; I refused to be comforted.

3I remembered God, and was troubled; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah

3I think of God; I groan; I meditate; my spirit becomes weak. Selah

4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

4You have kept me from closing my eyes; I am troubled and cannot speak.

5I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.

5I consider days of old, years long past.

6I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, And my spirit makes diligent search.

6At night I remember my music; I meditate in my heart, and my spirit ponders.

7Will the Lord cast off forever? And will He be favorable no more?

7"Will the Lord reject forever and never again show favor?

8Has His mercy ceased forever? Has His promise failed forevermore?

8Has his faithful love ceased forever? Is his promise at an end for all generations?

9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah

9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?" Selah

10And I said, “This is my anguish; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

10So I say, "I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed."

11I will remember the works of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.

11I will remember the LORD's works; yes, I will remember your ancient wonders.

12I will also meditate on all Your work, And talk of Your deeds.

12I will reflect on all you have done and meditate on your actions.

13Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary; Who is so great a God as our God?

13God, your way is holy. What god is great like God?

14You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples.

14You are the God who works wonders; you revealed your strength among the peoples.

15You have with Your arm redeemed Your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

15With power you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

16The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were afraid; The depths also trembled.

16The water saw you, God. The water saw you; it trembled. Even the depths shook.

17The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound; Your arrows also flashed about.

17The clouds poured down water. The storm clouds thundered; your arrows flashed back and forth.

18The voice of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook.

18The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind; lightning lit up the world. The earth shook and quaked.

19Your way was in the sea, Your path in the great waters, And Your footsteps were not known.

19Your way went through the sea and your path through the vast water, but 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.
