1. I cried out to God with my voice,even to God with my voice; and He listened to me.
2. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord;in the night my hand is stretched out and does not weary,my soul refuses to be comforted.
3. I remember God, and I groan;I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. Selah
4. You hold my eyelids open;I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5. I have considered the days of old,the years long ago.
6. May I remember my song in the night;may I meditate in my heart;my spirit made a diligent search:
7. “Will the Lord cast off forever,and will He be favorable no more?
8. Has His mercy ceased forever,and have His promises failed for all time?
9. Has God forgotten to be gracious,and has He in anger shut up His tender mercies?” Selah
10. Then I said, “This is my grief;yet 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 Your wonders of old.
12. I will meditate also on all Your workand ponder on Your mighty deeds.
13. Your way, O God, is holiness;what god is as great as our God?
14. You are the God who can do wonders;You have declared Your strength among the nations.
15. You have with Your arm redeemed Your people,the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
16. The waters saw You, O God.The waters saw You; they were afraid;the depths also trembled.
17. The clouds poured out water;the skies thundered.Your arrows flashed about.
18. The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind,and Your lightning lit up the world;the earth trembled and shook.
19. Your way is through the sea,and Your path in the great waters,and your footsteps are not seen.
20. You led Your people like a flockby the hand of Moses and Aaron.
