- [To the chiefe musician,
to Ieduthun, a Psalme of Asaph.]
- 1
- I cryed vnto God with my voice: euen vnto God with my voice, and he gaue eare vnto me.
- 2
- In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord;
my sore ranne in the night, and ceased not: my soule refused to be comforted.
- 3
- I remembred God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was ouerwhelmed.
Selah.
- 4
- Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speake.
- 5
- I haue considered the dayes of old, the yeeres of auncient times.
- 6
- I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine owne heart, and my spirit made diligent search.
- 7
- Will the Lord cast off for euer?
and will hee be fauourable no more?
- 8
- Is his mercy cleane gone for euer?
doth his promise faile for euermore?
- 9
- Hath God forgotten to be gracious?
hath he in anger shut vp his tender mercies? Selah.
- 10
- And I sayd, This is my infirmitie: but I will remember the yeeres of the right hand of the most high.
- 11
- I will remember the workes of the Lord: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
- 12
- I will meditate also of all thy worke, and talke of thy doings.
- 13
- Thy way, O God, is in the Sanctuarie: 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 arme redeemed thy people, the sonnes of Iacob and Ioseph.
Selah.
- 16
- The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee: they were afraid;
the depths also were troubled.
- 17
- The cloudes powred out water, the skies sent out a sound;
thine arrowes also went abroad.
- 18
- The voice of thy thunder was in the heauen: the lightnings lightned the world, the earth trembled and shooke.
- 19
- Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters: and thy foot-steps are not knowen.
- 20
- Thou leddest thy people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
