Parallel
Psalms 76
Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
For the end, for Idithun, a Psalm of Asaph.
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A song. God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.
I cried to the Lord with my voice, yea, my voice [was addressed] to God; and he gave heed to me.
77:1
For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. I cried out to God; I cried aloud to God to hear me.
In the day of mine affliction I earnestly sought the Lord; [even] with my hands by night before him, and I was not deceived; my soul refused to be comforted.
77:2
In the day of trouble I sought the Lord; through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary; my soul refused to be comforted.
I remembered God, and rejoiced; I poured out my complaint, and my soul fainted. Pause.
77:3
I remembered You, O God, and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint. Selah
All mine enemies set a watch [against me]: I was troubled, and spoke not.
77:4
You have kept my eyes from closing; I am too troubled to speak.
I considered the days of old, and remembered ancient years.
77:5
I considered the days of old, the years long in the past.
And I meditated; I communed with my heart by night, and diligently searched my spirit, [saying],
77:6
At night I remembered my song; in my heart I mused, and my spirit pondered:
Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be well pleased no more?
77:7
“Will the Lord spurn us forever and never show His favor again?
Will he cut off his mercy for ever, even for ever and ever?
77:8
Is His loving devotion gone forever? Has His promise failed for all time?
Will God forget to pity? or will he shut up his compassions in his wrath? Pause.
77:9
Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has His anger shut off His compassion?” Selah
And I said, Now I have begun; this is the change of the right hand of the Most High.
77:10
So I said, “I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”
I remembered the works of the Lord; for I will remember thy wonders from the beginning.
77:11
I will remember the works of the LORD; yes, I will remember Your wonders of old.
And I will meditate on all thy works, and will consider thy doings.
77:12
I will reflect on all You have done and ponder Your mighty deeds.
O God, thy way is in the sanctuary; who is a great God as our God?
77:13
Your way, O God, is holy. What god is so great as our God?
Thou art the God that doest wonders; thou hast made known thy power among the nations.
77:14
You are the God who works wonders; You display Your strength among the peoples.
Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Pause.
77:15
With power You redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee, and feared; and the depths were troubled.
77:16
The waters saw You, O God; the waters saw You and swirled; even the depths were shaken.
[There was] an abundant sound of waters: the clouds uttered a voice; for thine arrows went abroad.
77:17
The clouds poured down water; the skies resounded with thunder; Your arrows flashed back and forth.
The voice of thy thunder was abroad, and around thy lightnings appeared to the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
77:18
Your thunder resounded in the whirlwind; the lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters, and thy footsteps cannot be known.
77:19
Your path led through the sea, Your way through the mighty waters, but Your footprints were not to be found (note: Or were unknown).
Thou didst guide thy people as sheep by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
77:20
You led Your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
