Chapter 77 - The Mighty God

1 I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.


2 In the day (of my trouble) I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.


3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed.


Selah.



4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.


5 I have considered the days (of old) the years of ancient times.


6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.


7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? And will he be favourable no more?

8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore?

9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies?


Selah.



10 And I said, 

This is my infirmity: 

but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.


11 I will remember the works (of the LORD): surely I will remember thy wonders of old.


12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.


13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God [as] our God?

14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.


15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons (of Jacob and Joseph).


Selah.



16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.


17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.


18 The voice (of thy thunder) was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.


19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.


20 Thou leddest thy people [like] a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
