77 Ako'y dadaing ng aking tinig sa Dios; sa Dios ng aking tinig; at kaniyang didinggin ako.

Sa kaarawan ng aking kabagabagan ay hinahanap ko ang Panginoon: ang kamay ko'y nakaunat sa gabi, at hindi nangangalay; tumatangging maaliw ang kaluluwa ko.

Naaalaala ko ang Dios, at ako'y nababalisa: ako'y nagdaramdam, at ang diwa ko'y nanglulupaypay. (Selah)

Iyong pinupuyat ang mga mata ko: ako'y totoong nababagabag na hindi ako makapagsalita.

Aking ginunita ang mga araw ng una, ang mga taon ng dating mga panahon.

Aking inaalaala ang awit ko sa gabi: sumasangguni ako sa aking sariling puso; at ang diwa ko'y masikap na nagsiyasat.

Magtatakuwil ba ang Panginoon magpakailan man? At hindi na baga siya lilingap pa?

Ang kaniya bang kagandahang-loob ay lubos na nawala magpakailan man? Natapos na bang walang hanggan ang kaniyang pangako?

Nakalimot na ba ang Dios na magmaawain? Kaniya bang tinakpan ng kagalitan ang kaniyang malumanay na mga kaawaan? (Selah)

10 At aking sinabi, Ito ang sakit ko; nguni't aalalahanin ko ang mga taon ng kanan ng Kataastaasan.

11 Babanggitin ko ang mga gawa ng Panginoon; sapagka't aalalahanin ko ang mga kabagabagan mo ng una.

12 Bubulayin ko ang lahat ng iyong gawa, at magmumuni tungkol sa iyong mga gawa.

13 Ang iyong daan, Oh Dios, ay nasa santuario: sino ang dakilang dios na gaya ng Dios?

14 Ikaw ay Dios na gumagawa ng mga kagilagilalas: iyong ipinakilala ang kalakasan mo sa gitna ng mga tao.

15 Iyong tinubos ng kamay mo ang iyong bayan, ang mga anak ng Jacob at ng Jose. (Selah)

16 Nakita ka ng tubig, Oh Dios; nakita ka ng tubig, sila'y nangatakot: ang mga kalaliman din naman ay nanginig.

17 Ang mga alapaap ay nangaglagpak ng tubig; ang langit ay humugong: ang mga pana mo naman ay nagsihilagpos.

18 Ang tinig ng iyong kulog, ay nasa ipoipo; tinanglawan ng mga kidlat ang sanglibutan: ang lupa ay nayanig at umuga.

19 Ang daan mo'y nasa dagat, at ang mga landas mo'y nasa malalawak na tubig, at ang bakas mo'y hindi nakilala.

20 Iyong pinapatnubayan ang iyong bayan na parang kawan, sa pamamagitan ng kamay ni Moises at ni Aaron.

In the Day of Trouble I Seek the Lord

To the choirmaster: according to (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of (B)Asaph.

77 I (C)cry aloud to God,
    aloud to God, and he will hear me.
(D)In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
    in (E)the night my (F)hand is stretched out without wearying;
    my soul (G)refuses to be comforted.
When I remember God, I (H)moan;
    when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

You hold my eyelids open;
    I am so (I)troubled that I cannot speak.
I consider (J)the days of old,
    the years long ago.
I said,[a] “Let me remember my (K)song in the night;
    let me (L)meditate in my heart.”
    Then my spirit made a diligent search:
“Will the Lord (M)spurn forever,
    and never again (N)be favorable?
Has his steadfast love forever ceased?
    Are his (O)promises at an end for all time?
(P)Has God forgotten to be gracious?
    (Q)Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

10 Then I said, “I will appeal to this,
    to the years of the (R)right hand of the Most High.”[b]

11 I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
    yes, I will (S)remember your wonders of old.
12 I will ponder all your (T)work,
    and meditate on your (U)mighty deeds.
13 Your way, O God, is (V)holy.
    (W)What god is great like our God?
14 You are the God who (X)works wonders;
    you have (Y)made known your might among the peoples.
15 You (Z)with your arm redeemed your people,
    the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

16 When (AA)the waters saw you, O God,
    when the waters saw you, they were afraid;
    indeed, the deep trembled.
17 The clouds poured out water;
    the skies (AB)gave forth thunder;
    your (AC)arrows flashed on every side.
18 (AD)The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;
    (AE)your lightnings lighted up the world;
    the earth (AF)trembled and shook.
19 Your (AG)way was through the sea,
    your path through the great waters;
    yet your footprints (AH)were unseen.[c]
20 You (AI)led your people like a flock
    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

  3. Psalm 77:19 Hebrew unknown

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

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

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

I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

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

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

Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

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.

Psalm 77[a]

For the director of music. For Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A psalm.

I cried out to God(A) for help;
    I cried out to God to hear me.
When I was in distress,(B) I sought the Lord;
    at night(C) I stretched out untiring hands,(D)
    and I would not be comforted.(E)

I remembered(F) you, God, and I groaned;(G)
    I meditated, and my spirit grew faint.[b](H)
You kept my eyes from closing;
    I was too troubled to speak.(I)
I thought about the former days,(J)
    the years of long ago;
I remembered my songs in the night.
    My heart meditated and my spirit asked:

“Will the Lord reject forever?(K)
    Will he never show his favor(L) again?
Has his unfailing love(M) vanished forever?
    Has his promise(N) failed for all time?
Has God forgotten to be merciful?(O)
    Has he in anger withheld his compassion?(P)

10 Then I thought, “To this I will appeal:
    the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.(Q)
11 I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
    yes, I will remember your miracles(R) of long ago.
12 I will consider(S) all your works
    and meditate on all your mighty deeds.”(T)

13 Your ways, God, are holy.
    What god is as great as our God?(U)
14 You are the God who performs miracles;(V)
    you display your power among the peoples.
15 With your mighty arm you redeemed your people,(W)
    the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.

16 The waters(X) saw you, God,
    the waters saw you and writhed;(Y)
    the very depths were convulsed.
17 The clouds poured down water,(Z)
    the heavens resounded with thunder;(AA)
    your arrows(AB) flashed back and forth.
18 Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind,(AC)
    your lightning(AD) lit up the world;
    the earth trembled and quaked.(AE)
19 Your path(AF) led through the sea,(AG)
    your way through the mighty waters,
    though your footprints were not seen.

20 You led your people(AH) like a flock(AI)
    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.(AJ)
