Comfort in Trouble from Recalling God’s Mighty Deeds.
For the choir director; 1 Chr 16:41according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.
1My voiceH6963 rises to GodH430, and I will 1cryH6817 aloudH6817; My voiceH6963 rises to GodH430, and He will hearH238 me.2In the 2dayH3117 of my troubleH6869 I soughtH1875 the LordH136; 3In the nightH3915 my 4handH3027 was stretchedH5064 out 5withoutH3808 wearinessH6313; My soulH5315 6refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162.3When I rememberH2142 GodH430, then I am 7disturbedH1993; When I 8sighH7878, then 9my spiritH7307 growsH5848 faintH5848. 10SelahH5542.4You have heldH270 my eyelidsH5869H8109 open; I am so troubledH6470 that I 11cannotH3808 speakH1696.5I have consideredH2803 the 12daysH3117 of oldH6924, The yearsH8141 of longH5769 agoH5769.6I will rememberH2142 my 13songH5058 in the nightH3915; I 14will meditateH7878 with my heartH3824, And my spiritH7307 15pondersH2664:
7Will the LordH136 16rejectH2186 foreverH5769? And will He 17neverH3808 be favorableH7521 againH3254?8Has His 18lovingkindnessH2617 ceasedH656 foreverH5331? Has His 1920promiseH561 comeH1584 to an endH1584 21foreverH1755?9Has GodH410 22forgottenH7911 to be graciousH2603, OrH518 has He in angerH639 23withdrawnH7092 His 24compassionH7356? SelahH5542.10Then I saidH559, “25It is my 26griefH2470, That the 27rightH3225 handH3225 of the MostH5945 HighH5945 has changedH8132.”
11I shall rememberH2142 the 28deedsH4611 of 29the LordH3050; SurelyH3588 I will 30rememberH2142 Your wondersH6382 of oldH6924.12I will 31meditateH1897 on allH3605 Your workH6467 And museH7878 on Your deedsH5949.13Your wayH1870, O GodH430, is 32holyH6944; 33WhatH4310 godH410 is greatH1419 like our GodH430?14You are the 34GodH410 who worksH6213 wondersH6382; You have 35madeH3045 knownH3045 Your strengthH5797 among the peoplesH5971.15You have by Your 36powerH2220 37redeemedH1350 Your peopleH5971, The sonsH1121 of JacobH3290 and 38JosephH3130. SelahH5542.
16The 39watersH4325 sawH7200 You, O GodH430; The watersH4325 sawH7200 You, they were in anguishH2342; The deepsH8415 alsoH637 trembledH7264.17The 40cloudsH5645 pouredH2229 out waterH4325; The skiesH7834 41gaveH5414 forth a soundH6963; Your 42arrowsH2671 43flashedH1980 here and there.18The 44soundH6963 of Your thunderH7482 was in the whirlwindH1534; The 45lightningsH1300 litH215 up the worldH8398; The 46earthH776 trembledH7264 and shookH7493.19Your 47wayH1870 was in the seaH3220 And Your pathsH7635 in the mightyH7227 watersH4325, And Your footprintsH6119 may not be knownH3045.20You 48ledH5148 Your peopleH5971 like a flockH6629 By the handH3027 of 49MosesH4872 and AaronH175.
