77:1  For the director of music. For Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A psalm. I cried out to God for help; I cried out to God to hear me.
77:2  When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands, and I would not be comforted.
77:3  I remembered you, God, and I groaned; I meditated, and my spirit grew faint.
77:4  You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak.
77:5  I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
77:6  I remembered my songs in the night. My heart meditated and my spirit asked:
77:7  "Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
77:8  Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
77:9  Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?"
77:10  Then I thought, "To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
77:11  I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
77:12  I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds."
77:13  Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God?
77:14  You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
77:15  With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
77:16  The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
77:17  The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
77:18  Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
77:19  Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
77:20  You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
