To the director: To Jeduthun. One of Asaph's songs. I cry out to God for help. I cry out to you, God; listen to me! |
2
|
My Lord, in my time of trouble I came to you. I reached out for you all night long. My soul refused to be comforted. |
3
|
I thought about you, God, and tried to tell you how I felt, but I could not. |
4
|
You would not let me sleep. I tried to say something, but I was too upset. |
5
|
I kept thinking about the past, about things that happened long ago. |
6
|
During the night, I thought about my songs. I talked to myself, trying to understand what is happening. |
7
|
I wondered, "Has our Lord rejected us forever? Will he ever accept us again? |
8
|
Is his love gone forever? Will he never again speak to us? |
9
|
Has God forgotten what mercy is? Has his compassion changed to anger?" Selah |
10
|
Then I said to myself, "What bothers me most is the thought that God Most High has lost his power." |
11
|
Lord, I remember what you have done. I remember the amazing things you did long ago. |
12
|
I think about those things. I think about them all the time. |
13
|
God, all that you do is holy. No god is as great as you are. |
14
|
You are the God who does amazing things. You showed the nations your great power. |
15
|
By your power you saved your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Selah |
16
|
God, the water saw you and became afraid. The deep water shook with fear. |
17
|
The thick clouds dropped their water. Thunder roared in the sky above. Your arrows of lightning flashed through the clouds. |
18
|
There were loud claps of thunder. Lightning lit up the world. The earth shook and trembled. |
19
|
You walked through the water and crossed the deep sea, but you left no footprints. |
20
|
You led your people like sheep, using Moses and Aaron to guide them. |
