The Psalter According to the Seventy
Psalm 76
For the End: A Psalm for Asaph Concerning Idithum.
With my voice unto the Lord have I cried, with my voice unto God, and He was attentive unto me.
2
In the day of mine affliction I sought out God, with my hands upraised by night before Him, and I was not deceived.
3
My soul refused to be comforted; I remembered God and I was gladdened; I spake in idleness and my spirit became faint-hearted.
4
Mine eyes were wakeful before the watches; I was troubled and spake not.
5
I thought upon the days of old, and the years of ages past I called to mind, and I meditated.
6
By night I pondered in my heart, and my spirit searched diligently.
7
Will the Lord then cast me off unto the ages, and will He be favourable no more?
8
Or will He cut off His mercy unto the end? Hath He brought to an end His word from generation to generation?
9
Or will the Lord forget to be merciful? Or in His wrath will He shut up His compassions for ever?
10
And I said: Now have I made a beginning; this change hath been wrought by the right hand of the Most High.
11
I remembered the works of the Lord; for I will remember Thy wonders from the beginning.
12
And I will meditate on all Thy works, and I shall ponder upon Thy ways.
13
O God, in the sanctuary is Thy way. What God is as great as our God? Thou art God Who workest wonders.
14
Thou hast made Thy power among the peoples; with Thine arm hast Thou redeemed Thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
15
The waters saw Thee, O God, the waters saw Thee and were afraid; the abysses were troubled.
16
Great was the resounding sound of the waters, the clouds gave forth a voice.
17
Yea, for thine arrows passed abroad; the voice of Thy thunder is in their rolling.
18
And Thy lightnings have lightened the world; the earth was shaken and it trembled.
19
In the sea are Thy byways, and Thy paths in many waters; and Thy footsteps shall not be known.
20
Thou leddest Thy people as sheep by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
