\d A psalm written by Asaph for Jeduthun, the choir director
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 1 I will cry out to God;
|
||
|
|
\q1 I will cry aloud to him, and he will listen to me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 2 At the time that I had trouble, I prayed to the Lord;
|
||
|
|
\q2 all during the night I lifted up my hands while I prayed,
|
||
|
|
\q2 but nothing could comfort me.
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 3 When I thought about God, I despaired;
|
||
|
|
\q1 when I meditated about him, I grew discouraged.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 4 All during the night he prevented me from sleeping;
|
||
|
|
\q2 I was so worried that I did not know what to say.
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 5 I thought about days that had passed;
|
||
|
|
\q2 I remembered what had happened in previous years.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 6 I spent all the night thinking about things;
|
||
|
|
\q2 I meditated, and this is what I asked myself:
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 7 "Will the Lord always reject me?
|
||
|
|
\q2 Will he never again be pleased with me?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 8 Has he stopped faithfully loving me?
|
||
|
|
\q1 Will he not do for me what he promised to do?
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 9 God promised to act mercifully toward me; has he forgotten that?
|
||
|
|
\q2 Because he is angry with me, has he decided not to be kind to me?"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 10 I said, "What causes me to be sad the most is that
|
||
|
|
\q1 it seems that God, who is greater than any other god, is no longer using his power for us."
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 11 But then, Yahweh, I recall your great deeds;
|
||
|
|
\q2 I remember the wonderful things that you did in the past.
|
||
|
|
\q2
|
||
|
|
\v 12 I meditate on all that you have done,
|
||
|
|
\q2 and I think about your mighty acts.
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 13 God, everything that you do is amazing;
|
||
|
|
\q2 there is certainly no god who is great like you are!
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 14 You are God, the one who performs miracles;
|
||
|
|
\q2 you showed to the people of many people groups that you are powerful.
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 15 By your power you rescued your people from Egypt;
|
||
|
|
\q2 you saved those who were descendants of Jacob and his son Joseph.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 16 It was as though the waters saw you and became very afraid,
|
||
|
|
\q2 and even the deepest part of the water shook.
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 17 Rain poured down from the clouds;
|
||
|
|
\q2 it thundered very loudly,
|
||
|
|
\q2 and lightning flashed in all directions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 18 Thunder crashed in the whirlwind—your voice!
|
||
|
|
\q2 Lightning lit up,
|
||
|
|
\q1 and the earth shook violently.
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 19 Then you walked through the sea
|
||
|
|
\q2 in a path that you made through the deep water,
|
||
|
|
\q2 but your footprints could not be seen.
|
||
|
|
\b
|
||
|
|
\q1
|
||
|
|
\v 20 You led your people as a shepherd leads his flock of sheep
|
||
|
|
\q2 while Moses and Aaron were the leaders of your people.
