| 1. | {For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by Asaph.} My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me. | To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm. | 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 hand was stretched out in the night, and didn't get tired. My soul refused to be comforted. | I was crying to God with my voice; even to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me. | 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 remember God, and I groan. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah. | In the day of my trouble, my heart was turned to the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night without resting; my soul would not be comforted. | I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. | ||
| 4. | You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can't speak. | I will keep God in memory, with sounds of grief; my thoughts are troubled, and my spirit is overcome. (Selah.) | 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. | You keep my eyes from sleep; I am so troubled that no words come. | I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. | ||
| 6. | I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires: | My thoughts go back to the days of the past, to the years which are gone. | 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 reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more? | The memory of my song comes back to me in the night; my thoughts are moving in my heart; my spirit is searching with care. | Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? | ||
| 8. | Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations? | Will the Lord put me away for ever? will he be kind no longer? | Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? | ||
| 9. | Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?" Selah. | Is his mercy quite gone for ever? has his word come to nothing? | Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. | ||
| 10. | Then I thought, "I will appeal to this: the years of the right hand of the Most High." | Has God put away the memory of his pity? are his mercies shut up by his wrath? (Selah.) | 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 Yah's deeds; for I will remember your wonders of old. | And I said, It is a weight on my spirit; but I will keep in mind the years of the right hand of the Most High. | I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. | ||
| 12. | I will also meditate on all your work, and consider your doings. | I will keep in mind the works of Jah: I will keep the memory of your wonders in the past. | I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. | ||
| 13. | Your way, God, is in the sanctuary. What god is great like God? | I will give thought to all your work, while my mind goes over your acts of power. | Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? | ||
| 14. | You are the God who does wonders. You have made your strength known among the peoples. | Your way, O God, is holy: what god is so great as our God? | Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. | ||
| 15. | You have redeemed your people with your arm, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. | You are the God who does works of power: you have made your strength clear to the nations. | Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. | ||
| 16. | The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed. | With your arm you have made your people free, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah.) | 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 resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around. | The waters saw you, O God; the waters saw you, they were in fear: even the deep was troubled. | The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad. | ||
| 18. | The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook. | The clouds sent out water; the skies gave out a sound; truly, your arrows went far and wide. | The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. | ||
| 19. | Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known. | The voice of your thunder went rolling on; the world was flaming with the light of the storm; the earth was shaking. | Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known. | ||
| 20. | You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron. | Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps. | Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. | ||
