Psalm 77. Voce mea ad Dominum.

1. I WILL cry unto God with my voice; *
   even unto God will I cry with my voice, and he shall hearken unto me.
2. In the time of my trouble I sought the Lord: *
   I stretched forth my hands unto him, and ceased not in the night season; my soul refused comfort.
3. When I am in heaviness, I will think upon God; *
   when my heart is vexed, I will complain.
4. Thou holdest mine eyes waking: *
   I am so feeble that I cannot speak.
5. I have considered the days of old, *
   and the years that are past.
6. I call to remembrance my song, *
   and in the night I commune with mine own heart, and search out my spirit.
7. Will the Lord absent himself for ever? *
   and will he be no more intreated?
8. Is his mercy clean gone for ever? *
   and is his promise come utterly to an end for evermore?
9. Hath God forgotten to be gracious? *
   and will he shut up his loving-kindness in displeasure?
10. And I said, It is mine own infirmity; *
    but I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most Highest.
11. I will remember the works of the Lord, *
    and call to mind thy wonders of old time.
12. I will think also of all thy works, *
    and my talking shall be of thy doings.
13. Thy way, O God, is holy: *
    who is so great a God as our God?
14. Thou art the God that doest wonders, *
    and hast declared thy power among the peoples.
15. Thou hast mightily delivered thy people, *
    even the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
16. The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee, and were afraid; *
    the depths also were troubled.
17. The clouds poured out water, the air thundered, *
    and thine arrows went abroad.
18. The voice of thy thunder was heard round about: *
    the lightnings shone upon the ground; the earth was moved, and shook withal.
19. Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters, *
    and thy footsteps are not known.
20. Thou leddest thy people like sheep, *
    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
