For the Leader; for Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.
—
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.
—
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.
—
When I think thereon, O God, I must moan; When I muse thereon, my spirit fainteth. Selah .
—
Thou holdest fast the lids of mine eyes; I am troubled, and cannot speak.
—
I have pondered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
—
In the night I will call to remembrance my song; I will commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search
—
'Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will He be favourable no more?
—
Is His mercy clean gone for ever? Is His promise come to an end for evermore?
—
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath He in anger shut up his compassions?' Selah
—
And I say 'This is my weakness, That the right hand of the Most High could change.
—
I will make mention of the deeds of the LORD; Yea, I will remember Thy wonders of old.
—
I will meditate also upon all Thy work, And muse on Thy doings.'
—
O God, Thy way is in holiness; Who is a great god like unto God?
—
Thou art the God that doest wonders; Thou hast made known Thy strength among the peoples.
—
Thou hast with Thine arm redeemed Thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
—
The waters saw Thee, O God; The waters saw Thee, they were in pain; The depths also trembled.
—
The clouds flooded forth waters; The skies sent out a sound; Thine arrows also went abroad.
—
The voice of Thy thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lighted up the world; The earth trembled and shook.
—
Thy way was in the sea, And Thy path in the great waters, And Thy footsteps were not known.
—
Thou didst lead Thy people like a flock, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
