[1] For the Leader; for Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.
[2] I will lift up my voice unto God, an cry; I will lift up my voice unto God, that He may give ear unto me.
[3] In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; with my hand uplifted, mine eye streameth in the night without ceasing; my soul refuseth to be comforted.
[4] When I think thereon, O God, I must moan; when I muse thereon, my spirit fainteth. Selah
[5] Thou holdest fast the lids of mine eyes; I am troubled, and cannot speak.
[6] I have pondered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
[7] In the night I will call to remembrance my song; I w commune with mine own heart; and my spirit maketh diligent search:
[8] 'Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will He be favourable no more?
[9] Is His mercy clean gone for ever? Is His promise come to an end for evermore?
[10] Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath He in anger shut up his compassions?' Selah
[11] And I say: 'This is my weakness, that the right hand of the Most High could change.
[12] I will make mention of the deeds of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇; yea, I will remember Thy wonders of old.
[13] I will meditate also upon all Thy work, and muse on Thy doings.'
[14] O God, Thy way is in holiness; who is a great god like unto God?
[15] Thou art the God that doest wonders; Thou hast mad known Thy strength among the peoples.
[16] Thou hast with Thine arm redeemed Thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
[17] The waters saw Thee, O God; the waters saw Thee, they were in pain; the depths also trembled.
[18] The clouds flooded forth waters; the skies sent out a sound; Thine arrows also went abroad.
[19] The voice of Thy thunder was in the whirlwind; the lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
[20] Thy way was in the sea, and Thy path in the great waters, and Thy footsteps were not known.
[21] Thou didst lead Thy people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
