77:1  For the choir director. According to Jeduthun. By Asaph. A psalm. With my voice to God— with my voice I cried out to God, and he listened to me.
77:2  In the day when I was distressed I sought the Lord. At night my hand was stretched out, and it never grew tired, but my soul refused to be comforted.
77:3  God, I remembered and I groaned. Interlude I pondered, and my spirit became weak.
77:4  You propped my eyelids open. I was troubled but did not speak.
77:5  I thought about the days of long ago, the years long past.
77:6  During the night I remembered my music. With my heart I pondered, and my spirit asked,
77:7  “Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never again show favor?
77:8  Has his mercy vanished to the end? Has what he said failed for all generations?
77:9  Has God forgotten to be gracious? Interlude Has he really shut up his compassion in anger?”
77:10  Then I said, “This is what hurts me: the change of the right hand of the Most High.”
77:11  I will remember the deeds of the Lord. Yes, I will remember your wonderful work from long ago.
77:12  I will meditate on all your work, and I will ponder all your deeds.
77:13  O God, your way is carried out in holiness. What god is as great as God?
77:14  You are the God who performs a wonderful deed. You made known your power among the peoples.
77:15  With your arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Interlude
77:16  The waters saw you, O God. The waters saw you and swirled. Even the depths were turbulent.
77:17  The clouds poured down water. The skies echoed with thunder. Indeed, your arrows shot back and forth.
77:18  The sound of your thunder was heard in the tornado. Lightning lit up the world. The earth trembled and quaked.
77:19  Your route led through the sea. Your trail went through the mighty waters, but your footprints were not detected.
77:20  You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
