Psalms 77:3-20
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 77
3 When I remember God, then I am restless; When I sigh, then my spirit feels weak. Selah 4You have held my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5I have considered the days of old, The years of long ago. 6I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, And my spirit ponders: 7Will the Lord reject forever? And will He never be favorable again? 8Has His favor ceased forever? Has His promise come to an end forever? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? Selah 10Then I said, 'It is my grief, That the right hand of the Most High has changed.' 11I shall remember the deeds of the Lord; I will certainly remember Your wonders of old. 12I will meditate on all Your work, And on Your deeds with thanksgiving. 13Your way, God, is holy; What god is great like our God? 14You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples. 15By Your power You have redeemed Your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah 16The waters saw You, God; The waters saw You, they were in anguish; The ocean depths also trembled. 17The clouds poured out water; The skies sounded out; Your arrows flashed here and there. 18The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightning lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook. 19Your way was in the sea And Your paths in the mighty waters, And Your footprints were not known. 20You led Your people like a flock By the hand of Moses and Aaron.King James Version
Chapter 77
3I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. 4Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. 6I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. 7Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? 8Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? 9Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.
11I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
14Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.
19Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Chapter 77
3I think of God; I groan; I meditate; my spirit becomes weak. Selah 4You have kept me from closing my eyes; I am troubled and cannot speak. 5I consider days of old, years long past.
6At night I remember my music; I meditate in my heart, and my spirit ponders.
7"Will the Lord reject forever and never again show favor?
8Has his faithful love ceased forever? Is his promise at an end for all generations?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger withheld his compassion? " Selah
10So I say, "I am grieved that the right hand of the Most High has changed."
11I will remember the Lord's works; yes, I will remember your ancient wonders.
12I will reflect on all you have done and meditate on your actions.
13God, your way is holy. What god is great like God?
14You are the God who works wonders; you revealed your strength among the peoples.
15With power you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
16The water saw you, God. The water saw you; it trembled. Even the depths shook.
17The clouds poured down water. The storm clouds thundered; your arrows flashed back and forth.
18The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind; lightning lit up the world. The earth shook and quaked.
19Your way went through the sea and your path through the vast water, but your footprints were unseen.
20You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
New Living Translation
4You don’t let me sleep. I am too distressed even to pray!
5I think of the good old days, long since ended,
6when my nights were filled with joyful songs. I search my soul and ponder the difference now.
7Has the Lord rejected me forever? Will he never again be kind to me?
8Is his unfailing love gone forever? Have his promises permanently failed?
10And I said, 'This is my fate; the Most High has turned his hand against me.'
11But then I recall all you have done, O Lord; I remember your wonderful deeds of long ago.
12They are constantly in my thoughts. I cannot stop thinking about your mighty works.
13O God, your ways are holy. Is there any god as mighty as you?
14You are the God of great wonders! You demonstrate your awesome power among the nations.
16When the Red Sea saw you, O God, its waters looked and trembled! The sea quaked to its very depths.
17The clouds poured down rain; the thunder rumbled in the sky. Your arrows of lightning flashed.
18Your thunder roared from the whirlwind; the lightning lit up the world! The earth trembled and shook.
19Your road led through the sea, your pathway through the mighty waters — a pathway no one knew was there!
20You led your people along that road like a flock of sheep, with Moses and Aaron as their shepherds.

Chapter 77
3When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah 4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5I consider the days of old, the years long ago. 6I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search: 7“Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable? 8Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his promises at an end for all time? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah 10Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High.” 11I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your wonders of old. 12I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds. 13Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God? 14You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples. 15You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah 16When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled. 17The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side. 18The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook. 19Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen. 20You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.New International Version
Chapter 77
3I remembered you, God, and I groaned; I meditated, and my spirit grew faint. 4You kept my eyes from closing; I was too troubled to speak. 5I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
6I remembered my songs in the night. My heart meditated and my spirit asked:
7Will the Lord reject forever? Will he never show his favor again?
8Has his unfailing love vanished forever? Has his promise failed for all time?
9Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?'
10Then I thought, 'To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
11I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
12I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.'
13Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God?
14You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
15With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
16The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed.
17The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
18Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
New King James Version
4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5I have considered the days of old, The years of ancient times.
6I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, And my spirit makes diligent search.
7Will the Lord cast off forever? And will He be favorable no more?
8Has His mercy ceased forever? Has His promise failed forevermore?
10And I said, “This is my anguish; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
11I will remember the works of the Lord; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
12I will also meditate on all Your work, And talk of Your deeds.
13Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary; Who is so great a God as our God?
14You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples.
16The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were afraid; The depths also trembled.
17The clouds poured out water; The skies sent out a sound; Your arrows also flashed about.
18The voice of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook.
19Your way was in the sea, Your path in the great waters, And Your footsteps were not known.
20You led Your people like a flock By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
